I really don't find them to be wild and crazy at all, just a little more reactive and sensitive. This doesn't bother me. I'm a relaxed and confident rider so I actually prefer a "hot" horse. <br /><br />Right now I'm leasing an Arab, and I think he's easier to ride than my old previous lease horse (a <br />Welsh Cob). However, I've had a number of riding friends (most of whom own QH's or Paints) tell me that they wouldn't enjoy riding him down the trail. They view his raised head and look-y manner as a prelude of spooks to come. I know that's not the case. He's really not spooky at all. He just pretends like he is.<br /><br />I haven't had a lot of experience with Saddlebreds, but the few I've known have all had very good minds. One of my current riding buddies is 62 and trail rides her Saddlebred, Scarlett many, many miles each week, often solo. That mare is as good and solid a mount as I've ever known. I'd be happy to own one just like her.Braymerehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11621884059563380946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15982481.post-83146493012912879532013-09-04T17:16:16.377-04:002013-09-04T17:16:16.377-04:00What?
