I had to check back to my post to see if I'd been talking about any people but no. The horse owners from the Arab countries (Saudi, UAE, and so on) do like to compete at the EAO, however.Maryanne Stroud Gabbanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00858132776788616956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3269596104755521067.post-18030522961383121632007-05-09T13:47:00.000+02:002007-05-09T13:47:00.000+02:00Hello...just a correction - Egyptians are not Arab...Hello...just a correction - Egyptians are not Arabs. No matter that Gamal Abdel Nasser named the country "the Arab Republic of Egypt". We are no more Arab than the Libyans or the Sudanese, however we share many common cultural and religious traits and traditions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3269596104755521067.post-47043155816924689942007-05-02T00:54:00.000+02:002007-05-02T00:54:00.000+02:00nice color on the horse however it's too high in t...nice color on the horse however it's too high in the butt and it's back is too long, also those halter bred horses are not always good under saddle, they tend to be too hyper and inatentive, this horse's confromation will make it hard to collect and do any sort of advanced dressage movements. Also it's back will probably end up hurting where the saddle goes and be arched back as it gets older.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3269596104755521067.post-32042911636530105732007-05-01T16:41:00.000+02:002007-05-01T16:41:00.000+02:00One of my most favourite things to do while a resi...One of my most favourite things to do while a resident of Doha, Qatar, was to go to the annual Horse Show.... spectacular animals from some of the best studs in the region. Your photo was a sharp and poignant reminder of that pleasure...thank you!
