Pictures - Any ideas on breed of my horse

[Bay TB]

I have had my new boy for a month now, his passport doesn't give any clues on his breeding and I've had no response from a letter to the previous owner to see if they could provide any more information. Does anyone have any ideas as to what he might be?
He's 15.2hh and a 6 year old gelding:

Thanks

I think he looks like an Irish sports horse?!

I think he's awful, but id be happy to take him off your hands!

Would also like to ask how you keep him looking so spotless in all that mud.

However Re breeding, I'm clueless!

Gosh he looks so like my mare! She is Irish cob x TB. He defo is Irish and very lovely too! x

Possibly a TB cross as hes quite slender...

You could quite easily get a British horse with the same breeding, therefore it is not guarenteed to be "Irish" (unless you know it has an Irish passport!)

Have no idea on breeding, sorry, but just wanted to say what a lovely looking horse!

He's lovely! can't help breeding wise as in useless!

A white horse x brown horse = nice horse

Irish sports horse or tb crossed with a cob. Hes a stunner for sure!

 

[scewal]

He looks like my girl who is cob x tb

Thanks for the replies! I was thinking either an ISH or a welsh or irish cob x TB. I got him from a dealer who gets a lot of horses from Ireland generally but this one they brought from a lady in Leeds and that's as far back as his passport history goes. His temperament is lovely and he seems very brave. As for the mud that isn't their field thankfully but i am dreading the warmer weather and the rugs coming off!

What a lovely looking boy, to me he looks like a cob x TB he's got the bone (below the knee) of a cob, but the fine chiseled head of a TB.

Handsome chappy

What a lovely boy x Whatever he is he appears a very good purchase and very handsome.

Good luck to you both x

Can't help breed wise, but he is STUNNING! x

Very nice - clearly some TB X with a cob. Lucky you.

Sorry I'm useless on anything about breeding but he is a very pretty horse!
