There's a thread in the picture gallery - I think it's called 'Show me your Friesians' and there lurk all friesian owners (pure bred and crosses)

Link didn't work but I ride one, he's lovely.

The fresian owners thread is really active. Loads of the beasts on there but can't think of a particular cobx...

Cortez, beautiful!!!

I *think* a lot of horses in Merlin or Robin Hood type programmes tend to be friesians or crosses

 

[Slightlyconfused]

My yo daughter had one, he is stunning.

 

[Slightlyconfused]

*has that should be has

 

[Cortez]

Yes, Friesians and Spanish horses are the most sought after stunt horses for film and TV, not only are they the most photogenic, they are also sensible and trainable.

 

[ElleSkywalker]

And the most like horses that would have been around in the past?

 

[Cortez]

Yup, very ancient breed, used to be warhorses and around since at least the 15th century.

 

[ElleSkywalker]

I call my yearling my war horse, she has 3 breeds in her but its the friesian that shines through

 

[Floxie]

Cortez, how do I get your job?! I mean, not your actual job, that'd be a bit cheeky But a similar one would be nice!

 

[Cortez]

Ha ha! Yes, it's a good ol' life; still a job 'tho (as in lots of hard work).
