Hey Chris and Mandi...

Let begin by saying that I only know what I like in a horse, the next person might like a completely different type of horse.
At first glance, I would say he is put together well enough to get the job done. Full side profile, and front and rear shots would tell the story better. I like the withers, seems like most breeders are breeding out the withers , and it is a shame. I like the short back. He could use a better hip. and it looks like he might have a short, thick neck.I prefer a longer, slender neck myself though I seem to hear more people liking thicker necks. I would also like to see his hocks a little closer to the ground. All in all, I would say based on this picture, he is better equipped as a USING horse than 99% of the confirmation horses you will see at the AQHA world show this year.... His condition also looks great. You should have never given him away... Him and Prince would have made a good set of mounts for you and Angel.
