<p>[QUOTE="Morgandude11, post: 7915505, member: 37839"]NGC’s supposed standard for the star is “exceptional eye appeal.” Then again, in this definition of what they consider exceptional is quite contradictory. I find their description gives them far too wide a latitude. Morgans, particularly, are inconsistently awarded the star designation. I have owned Sunnywood, Battle Creek, and Aurora Borealis Morgans that should have been certain stars, by virtue of toning exceptional quality. Then again, I have owned fairly ordinarily toned Morgans that got the star, and it was laughable. Jeffersons have a difficult time with the star, as has been noted before. At any rate, here are NGC’s guidelines for the star. It confuses, more than clarifies, IMHO:<a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/news/article/806/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/news/article/806/" rel="nofollow">https://www.ngccoin.com/news/article/806/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
