What do think about french saddle bred horses, hanovrians, and lusitanians?
Here in france, the french saddle bred horse is very appreciated, it has wonderful abilities in jumping and dressage.
But for dressage (high competition level) we prefer german horses like hanovrians.
Lusitanians (portuguese horses) and PRE (spanish) are wonderfull in dressage but in high level competition they re not very appreciated for they have short actions.
Do you, americans, use these breds?
Yes, we use them. I am a dressage enthusiast myself, and I have ridden Warmbloods, including a Hanoverian mare, in competition. These horses make excellent all around sport horses because of their calm tempers and trainability. Hanoverians have also won a well deserved worldwide reputation as excellent show jumpers. Lusitano horses, which are from Portugal, are better suited to Grand Prix dressage than they are to jumping, simply because of the way in which they are built. The same goes for the Andalusian horses from Spain. Here in the USA, we also use your French Thoroughbred, or Selle Francis, as a riding and show jumping horse. But for the great majority of American competitiors, the preferred breeds are our own Thoroughbreds and Quarter Horses, with certain other breeds, such as the Appaloosa and the Paint horses thrown into the mix. Many people in this country also compete and work with Morgans, another American breed. We even have our own Warmblood now, and there is an American Warmblood Registry. Even the Arabian is very popular here in some circles- it just depends on the sport and on the region of the country where the person lives. Hope this helps.
