Anglo's i find are a lovely breed.

Some i have come across have been more 'nutty' then Arabians alone, due to having the TB influence, however the mare i owned myself was an Anglo and was very very unlike the AA stereotype.

Her 'mad moments' were far and few between. She was certainly no plod and took great pleasure in a very bouncy canter across a stubble field with tiny bucks added in every few strides, but she was a pleasure to own. Very gentle and sensetive. Not greedy or pushy, could be rather mareish in season, but it didnt last for long. She was a pleasure to have.

I owned a lovely chestnut anglo arab, although to look at him you would have thought he was all arab. He was fantastic to ride - so comfortable and had endless stamina. My firend used to call him Duracell cos he never got tired, never even broke a sweat! When I first bought him he was three and had been doing cattle herding for up to seven hours a day .

However he needed loads of exercise or he would be really nutty. He could be absolutely fine, and then out of nowhere explode in a series of bucks and twists which could be really scary.

Bertie's neighbour is an anglo arab and he's lovely, he's a good boy but a bit 'flighty', bombproof etc just needs a quiet handler, which he has,. Very sweet natured boy though
