This thread has been around for several months, and I just discovered it today! If there's a ping list for it, I'd love to be on it.

I suppose it's too much to hope for to see at least the elves mounted on Arabs. If there's any horse that looks delicate and elegant and "elvish", it's them. Of course, if you know horses, you also know that Arabs are also, pound-for-pound, the toughest, stongest, and hardiest horse out there. They're just so darn small that you have to be 5'2" and weigh 90 pounds to have the right proportions to look good on one, at least for movie purposes.

I have a rather tall Arab that is 15.3! I do love beautiful horses, and look forward to the horse action in TTT. I do picture the horses of Rohan to be of a fine type. I think the choice of an Andalusion Stallion for Shadowfax was a good choice.

The little Egyptian Arabs are small, but the Polish and some Americanized Arabs are taller and leggier than that old style... click my profile to see mine, he is pure Polish.
