I'm not usually 'bothered' about arabs but he is absolutely gorgeous! There probably won't be too many people wanting (or able to cope with) a stallion but I imagine that someone with the right experience would be very happy with a horse like that.

Thanks for that he is a real Gent and not hard to handle Just need to decide which route to take him down .....

I help out with Roe Mahooba (just a few down from him on the website)!! She came from there and is currently in foal to psyches 1st edition R.

She is an amazingly affectionate and generally wonderful little black mare who i am so proud to be involved with and i'm really excited to see this post because i had never seen where she came from before!!

Your lad is gorgeous, how big is he? He is nice and flashy, but i would leave his head alone a bit for now. It's not been long, he needs to learn to carry himself and get his ballance without being forced into an outline. It's interfering with his paces and rythm which are naturally stunning. Don't rush him, he will be lovely when he gets the hang of it all properly, but he is coming on really nicely. If anything i would encourage stretching and lengthening of the neck down.

He is really very nice, i would love to see more pictures of him.

ETS: You could maybe do some showing with him, he would probably do quite well. But i'm not sure if they sometimes prefer other colours to bays. He could also do dressage. Arabs are very versatile and can turn their hoof to most things if introduced to it carefully. Why is he entire though, are you keeping him that way? Do you intend to breed from him? (there are lots of quality arab stallions out there to be honest).

* Mahbooba, sorry- typo!

Beautiful animal!

The only even slightly negative thing I have to say is that he doesn't look very happy in his mouth, opening it and tossing his head around. Personally I'd let him work slightly longer and give him lots of opportunities to stretch down in between more difficult work, espec. as he is so young. My share Arab will hold himself much better when allowed to stretch.

They are lovely horses though, as somethignorother says they can do anything... endurance is an obvious one but share horsey does some (low level to suit his riders!) SJ, Dressage and XC too. Enjoy! (And find out what he enjoys too!)

One of the few vids posted on here I have watched from beginning to end. He is lovely, I agree about the head and also about dressage for him.

Arhhhh He is lovely, I think he will make a lovely ridden horse. I do think as he is such a baby you may want to change his bit to a happy mouth or even rubber, might help settle his head.

He's a really lovely boy But then I'm a sucker for bright bay ayrabs. The world is your oyster, really. Mine has been showing, dressaging, show jumping, hunting, cross country, endurancing, driving, swimming, hacking, le trec, cow herding, etc etc etc.

Echo what the others say about his head/mouth - I can't really tell from the video but it almost looks like the bit is set a little high for him too.

Stunning boy, and what a lovely quiet rider too

I absolutely adored my arab, he was fit as a fiddle, mega energetic, jumped like a stag, galloped forever, loved being fussed. I adored him.
