Arabs 
I do endurance, they are the perfect partner. When centuries of breeding's gone into making them a long distance machine, why fight it? lol That said, it's not these modern halter types that attract me, I like the old fashioned riding Arab, complete with rump

I just love the poper 'old school' british breeds!
Mainly Cleveland bays and Connies, but also a v big soft spot for ID and fell ponies. Can't wait until I have my own land and I can have my very own mixed up herd!! (kids will be an excellent excuse to get a fell pony for me to pinch!) Love the personality, intelligence and sensitivity of tbs (esp the fab old chaser types), but I wouldn't want to own one as I prefer types that are easier to keep and enjoy living out more. It would be just my luck to wind up with a wimpy one instead of a good tough sort!

Connemaras! I just love the way they look and act (most of them anyway)
ANd I guess this is biased but I do love a good Appy, they are all so willing to learn and just very sweet.

Can't beat ID/TBX for temperament and good allrounders. Overall good eggs.

come and meet mine and say that! Nappy great madam, love her dearly but heaven alone knows shes been threatened with Pedigree Petfoods on occassions!!
My all time favourite has got to be the Clydesdale - big horse, big heart. Anyone looking to sell one, please send them in my direction!!

Flamehead - Read your post yesterday and thought you didn't like Friesians. Must have mis-read it. I have always wanted a Friesian since I was small and at 57 am now the proud owner of one. They can be buggers, but they are pretty sensitive high energy horses so can be a bit highly strung. One lady on yesterdays post said they were barge horses. Not sure what she meant by that. Barney is the most handsome of men though. If my husband was as good looking, Brad Pitt would have to watch out.
