Re: [RC] Spanish / arabian crosses - Susan YoungJulienne,
I'm glad you "delurked" to share the pics of your BEAUTIFUL mare! I like her because she's so sturdy looking. It looks as though she's bigger than what she is and could carry my big self around with ease.
I'm 5'10" and like a little taller horse (although my Crabbet Arab is only 14.3 1/2). I really like the Anglo Arab because of the thicker build and (sometimes) height. Like your mare, my AA has feet of steel.
He's a hot-bred horse as well (Arab/TB). I'd like to hear all y'all's comments on the hot breeds. In my experience with Arabians and off-the-track TBs, it's more in the handling instead of the breeding. In the foxhunting field, I've witnessed more "hot" Warmbloods than anything else.
Good luck with your mare. I hope you can find the time to put her in more endurance rides. She looks like a dream to ride. I'd imagine you two would make miles of memories!
