For a stock horse they might be considered on the long side, but they look good to me! Pasterns with a good length give more spring in the horse's step, usually making for a nicer ride. Looks like they might have too much heel on the feet in front, but it's hard to tell with the horse standing in the grass. The pastern should flow smoothly into the hoof with no change in angle.
