What sort of horses are you drawn to?

I've ended up with a project horse. He has gentle eyes but is a terror to catch - 2 hours normally and thrives on testing me! I've even been offered a horse on loan who is an angel in comparison just to ride throughout summer! Don't know if that means she takes pitty on me or that she's just desperate to keep him at the yard..
 
I tend to look at horses/ponies 14hh - 15.3hh between the ages of 4-7. I have a soft spot for coloureds and appaloosas and I tend to go for horses which are naturally quite laid back, haven't done much but have potential, also if they have a bit of Irish Draught/Irish Cob in them I am happy because I find these horses to be more trainable.
 
Another vote for sharp mares. I like a nice feisty girl, off the leg. No colour preference, but I'm a sucker for a white face. Not really a breed preference either to be honest - my girl at the mo is a chunky cob, and thinks she is TB, but if I was buying something else, I would look at anything. As I usually buy youngsters, the only thing I look at are it's feet and it's eyes. Never failed yet.
 
Anything TB! Im converted although I still love Arabs!

I like a bit of attitude but nothing that is going to buck a lot! Dont mind the im not doing that buck but nothing more than that! ;)
