No's TB's!!!

[sonjafoers]

My YO always says if a wheel was to drop off an aeroplane as it flew over our fields it would always land on the TB!! He used to breed & point them too so has had plenty of experience.

I am on my 2nd & absolutely love them, but I also have a cob x who I love just as much.

its not the temperament that would bother me more the legs/feet/mudfever/propensity to injury issues

my cob is unhardy enough

I would probably put no full tbs as they just aren't my type. I want something chunkier and a tbs aren't. Fizziness doesn't bother me, I like it in fact, but I just don't like them as much. Exceptions to every rule though!

When me and my mum set out to get a new horse my mum decided that we wouldn't get a thoroughbred or any 'finely' built horses but this was due to the fact that our previous horse had had many injuries (eventually her downfall) and everyone said that it was due to her being a tb.
She was the calmest thing you'd ever meet, I put my very very novicey friend on her twice. The second time I walked with her out on a hack. After a couple of trots on her own I asked if she trusted my horse, she said yes. I told her to head at a trot in a certain direction. I yelled 'HATTIE CANTER!' and hats took her, very sedately to the end of the path and stopped. Friend loved it!

We now have a cob pony but I would personally love another hattie (finely built tb/warmblood/a proper horse

)

Hattie sounds adorable. Tb's do tend to do well with voice training, imho.
