That's the exact way to approach the horse - understand it or if your personality and playing style match, the Arabians are great. I was so concerned about keeping a wild Arabian or the American Standard until I can get a Turkoman.
I loved my Shire and had a Turkoman once and loved it. Turns out, I love my brindle Arabian too. They are just two very different horses. Treat them how they need and they will treat you like gold.
I'm torn between reclaiming my free Turkoman or taking the black Arabian for free.
