    Well you can imagine the looks and comments I would get whe I rode my Arab endurance horse to work sale days at the cattle stockyards. I also rode him in my english saddle, much to the horror of the cowboy boss. I only took one horse to everyone elses 2 or 3 horses for the whole 9-10 hours of work. Not only was he able to work all day long, he wasn't saddle weary and tired like the heavy muscled quarter horses. I will say he wasn't too fond of the bulls, but did learn to open pen gates in a hurry, I am sure for self-preservaton. I still get ribbed occasionally when I see the cowboys I worked with back then.

    Oh boy do we live in QH country.....  My wife was riding her Arab the other
    day in full endurance regalia and one of the cowboys looked at her crupper
    and said, "Oh that's why they hold their tails up like that.  Whaddya tie 'em
    up like that fer?"  LOL
