Mares! A poll this time xD

Sorry, it was too late to edit my last post. I like polls, it's easier to see the results. Anyways, here we go:

Perfection is a Cleveland Bay mare

Look out she's back

 

[madhector]

ahh, i dissagree, perfection is a Tb gelding

 

[kick_On]

if you have no perference.... go for one that does job for you, as it will be yours
i perfer a well schooled horse

 

[Evil_Cookie]

No No... Tb mare AND Cleveland bay mare

 

[Irishcobs]

Either. My mare isn't mareish, but my gelding is definitely a mummies boy. Actually none of the mares at work are mareish either.

 

[Hollyhorse]

Depends. If I'm buying something to sell on then definitely a gelding as so much easier to sell. If I'm buying something for myself to compete then either - often mares are tidier jumpers and try really hard for you! But then geldings are more straightforward...

 

[Peanot]

warmblood mares. although warmblood geldings look soooo sexy too when all muscled up and well behaved.

 

[sallyf]

Having had stallions mares and geldings would definately only want a stallion or mare these days.
No geldings wanted here but that is personal choice

 

[Krysha_n_Helga]

love mare now. after having helga my warmblood mare i wouldn`t go back.

I love stallions! They used to have a REALLY posh Lipi stally at the yard, and he was the sweetest thing ever! But it's not really practical for us to go for a stally xD

 

[helenandshadow]

I love mares!! I have to say that most of the mares i've had were nicer temperaments than the geldings, but i don't really mind if it's a nice horse.

I used to only have mares and now have two geldings, so went for the third option, but 2 years ago it would have been mares only - something about them, but I can understand why some people won't touch them.

 

[MagicMelon]

Geldings all the way!

 

[Baggybreeches]

I have a problem (well 2 actually), see I have Touchy (orange one below) and Sovereign (dark bay one below) and both are perect but T is a mare and S is a gelding! So what would you decide!

 

[aimeerose]

mares may be hard work but once they are onside they are the best.

That's my experience too, but would try not to be biased...

 

[amandaco2]

either but i do feel generally speaking mares do have something extra about them.

 

[SouthWestWhippet]

My mare *is* mareish. In fact her 'nickname' is Queen of the Harpies.

She is bossy, pushy, stubborn, argumentative and difficult. If she doesn't like something she will let you know!

But she is also hillarious, very loving and has a huge complex personality that never gets boring. I love her, I understand her (she is just like me in a lot of ways) and we suit it each other down to the ground. I am total mare convert and I don't even think I've got a nice one LOL

I would go for a mare everytime, but I would not turn down a gelding if he ticked all the boxes.
