Bramblerun Thunder Quest. TMH. March 2001
https://www.allbreedpedigree.com/bramblerun+thunder+quest
Multiple generations of Funquest, based on Brunk and WWF, much coming from the Chilocco Indian School in Oklahoma, most of their mares coming from the old Kansas lines, including Elmer Brown's program.
A lovely rear end but the front end does not match up. This hopefully was taken when still young & growing. Good Pillar of Support & Neck Emergence.
sired a few

The "X" Factor by Calvin Hanson. TMH. March 2003
This is a detailed, important article. Look at the photos and see the conformation and type of the Morgans shown.
As I was reading through it, I realized that I recognized the names of most of the horses listed here.
Many were used by breeders and some have lines down to today.

Ken Carmen. Western Livestock Journal 1942
https://www.allbreedpedigree.com/ken+carmen
Study his pedigree to see the masterful work of J. C. Brunk.
His parents were half-siblings in blood as each parent's sire were full brothers.
Go back further in each line of the pedigree to see how much Morgan there was.
He sired 55 registered get, many of whom had at least one foal of their own.
He does come down to us today.
One prominent line is from his grandson, Rockwell's Valley Tan.
He also is behind some of the Jackson Ranch Morgans.
He was also sire of some good Illawana prefix Morgans.
While this is not a conformation photo, being taken from somewhat behind, much of his conformation can be seen. He has a very good Pillar of Support and a good Neck Emergence. He looks to have a good length of hip and good depth of gaskin. He has depth and substance overall. (His front feet need a good trim! and that bugs me)

https://www.allbreedpedigree.com/funquest+talstar
He has a pedigree of line breeding to some good Morgans.
Besides his Brunk heritage, he has the old Kansas WWF and some early California WWF.
Then study his conformation. He has good Pillar of Support and Neck Emergence, a long hip that is smooth and looks like from the rear it will be that good Morgan Apple Butt. He shows quality all over.
