[haflingerfriends] Inspections

OK, I have a question for the believers in inspections. Has anyone had a Haflinger inspected more than once, by different judges, with different results? I'm speaking about adult horses mainly. I'd be curious to see how much of the process is absolute and how much is opinion.

To me that would make a big difference in the validity of inspections. It's unfair to the Haflinger to place the horses life in the hands of someone who may not like the lighter color, or perhaps the dark color, or a little too much white or not enough white markings. I know that it isn't supposed to make a difference but it's not supposed to in Quarter Horse shows either but it's very obvious when a judge doesn't like gray or palomino or ???

Just my opinion, but it is important to know.
