Hi Plonker Don't have an anglo although my friend does but he's a bit of a sensitive soul so mainly just hacks now as he can lose the plot quite easily. His previous owner did a bit of everything with him but mainly dressage I think. There are a fair few anglos eventing and they usually make very good competition horses. Would love to see pics of your neddies. |

Mine is technically not an Anglo, but he does have a rather large amount of TB blood. I'm not sure but I suspect there is a smidge of something "welsh" in there ;) anyway - he's been a small hack, done the Arab showing classes, and is now a dressage horse. |

I have an Anglo I bred, she is now 18, to look at she looks like a pure bred arab. Zana is only 14.2. She has done in hand showing and ridden showing in her younger years. When she was about 9 I discovered endurance and she loved it, fast and relentless, would never give up. At the same time she started side saddle, which was fun for both of us, She has competed at the national side saddle championship. She had also done some endurance training rides side saddle. She has also hunted but she doesnt enjoy it much as it tends to be wet and cold, not her favourite time of year. She still enjoys doing pleasure rides and escorting young horses out and about despite her arthritis. |

I did everything with my anglo, i had hm from a foal and lost him at 18 yrs but he was truly amazing, could turn a hoof to anything. What's Mika's full name? I bred a lovely anglo who's stable name was Mika and i believe they have not long sold him, don't suppose he's the same Mika? |

Anglos rock!! I am a hug fan of Anglos, first cross AA being my favourite, but saying that the filly I have earmarked for me to keep is 75% arab, 25% TB, and 3rd generation homebred. |
