The Hispano-Árabe Widely preferred in Spain for their combination of the Spanish horses courage, movement, and unflappable temperament with the Arabian heart, endurance, and ruggedness; the Hispano-Árabe is especially prized in Spain for Doma Vaquera riding and for the demanding life of the working cattle horse on the vast unfenced plains of Andalusia. These horses are capable of simply breathtaking displays of harmony between horse and rider.
