I did until June of this year (RIP Polly XXX). Polly was an Anglo-arab 75% Arab, 25% TB. To ride (before she retired) she was an extreme horse - either a complete nutcase or a complete saint. To look after she was a dream - very, very easy and uncomplicated. Sorry, but have no pictures of her on this PC at work, but she was 15'1hh, white grey, slightly fleabitten, blaze, big brown arab eye, arab head minus the dish and I loved her to bits. I lost her suddenly in June to colic caused by a displacement of the intestine, aged 26.
 
Mine is in my sig.

She's 46.87% Crabbet and the rest is reasonably well bred TB - lots of Northern Dancer, with Luthier etc.

The day she first jumped away from home and the first time she saw a coloured jump!

I used to ride a 15.2hh 3/4 tb, 1/4 arab gelding. He was a total nightmare but taught me loads - in his youth he was successfully competed at BSJA and was competed in Hickstead Derby! I took him on when he was 19 and I was 12 and despite a successful career he taught me every way a horse would run out, how to sit on a rearing and bucking monster and how to outwit a stubborn, stroppy and far to clever horse :) Loved him to bits but sadly he developed cancer of the bone when he was 24 so he was pts.
 
I ride a palomino anglo arab, he's in my album on my profile (sorry, pic is not in photobucket account.....yet!!!!). He's fab, but very much his own person.

I also grew up riding an anglo, who easily passed for full arab, but the old fashioned smaller type. He was amazing, taught me more about horses than any person ever could, and was kind but firm with me. I miss him, he was my first big love affair!!!!!! He was PTS at the grand old age of 32, I started with him when he was supposed to be retiring at 17 yo (never found out why!) and my son rode him when he was younger (son is 11 now.)

He certainly never slowed down, and was enjoying life right til the end, surviving a heart attack a year before he went. Sorry, went off on one there, but he was amazing. And the one I ride now is frighteningly similar in character...... :D
 
I did.....I lost him very recently, very suddenly at the age of 22-(ish)...he was fit and well to the end. Adored him. :(

I'm looking for a pure-bred arab now.....think I've found one that ticks all my boxes.

...there goes the plan to wait until spring, but frankly ( and this is horrible) OH's and daughters horses are boring:o
 
Here's mine! I originally wanted something a bit more sensible, say an IDX or something but I wouldn't swap him for the world!
