IMHO, the best Arabian types are the Polish, followed by the Egyptian (such beautiful heads). The Bedouin types (which these horses look like to me) were always too goofy for my taste. I groomed for an Arabian trainer while I was in college and I bred my Thoroughbred mare to his pure Polish stallion. The result was a perfect rose-gray filly, except she overgrew to 14.3. Argh! If she had just stopped at 14.2, I would have had a $25,000 large pony hunter. Instead I sold her as a $2,500 short stirrup hunter kids’ babysitter.
Mine was crab bet (had to break the word up because autocorrect kept changing it to crab bait!). Grandson of Khemosabi. I agree, the extreme Egyptian looks ridiculous.
