Hello.
I have been horseless for many years now, though I used to show in a big way mainly in the 3-gaited and pleasure driving divisions as well as in hand. However, my past experience has only been with large horses. My husband has finally given me the go ahead to begin my search for my next horse and I am quite interested in the minis.
I have checked out several farm's websites and also hit the AMHR FAQ's and that sort of thing. However, I am a little lost when it comes to bloodlines within this breed. I would like to do in hand showing as well as pleasure driving. Can you guys point me in the right direction as far as the lines that may best suit my goals?
In my research, I've noticed that I prefer a horse that is ASPC (I hope I said that correctly), more refined, upright in the neck, with a very pretty head. I am thinking that I like a (again, unfamiliar with these terms, so I hope I am stating this properly) Section A horse, I believe those are the smaller ones, right? I'm not really partial to horses of colour, though I'm not put off by it either. Colour just isn't that important to me, I stick to the addage, "I've never seen a good horse that was a bad color."
I would appreciate your input on the bloodlines and/or farms that are producing the type of horse that I've described.
Thanks!
