Hi, I'll take on this review, though I'm not too familiar with man-made breeds of animals, that might in fact be a good thing (so you can get objective views). FunkMonk (talk) 09:22, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Perhaps it would be good to separate the registration info from the characteristics info, as in Azteca horse?
  • Maybe add one more image[1], to show the range in colouration? The head profile is also shown better there.
  • Some of the terminology is a bit hard to follow for the uninitiated, but I guess that's what wikilinks are for. But maybe it could be mentioned that "geldings" are castrated, since the term is used quite a few times?
  • I'm not sure if the word "excellent" is appropriate, isn't it a bit subjective? "and make excellent trail mounts in rugged terrain." Maybe say they are regarded as such, instead of saying they are?
  • That's it from me, sources for both text and images look good. FunkMonk (talk) 09:42, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks for the review, FunkMonk! I definitely appreciate reviews from non-horse people, as they help catch things (like jargon) that fly right past me. I think I've addressed all of your comments above. I don't really like any of the pictures in the article, but there isn't anything better on Commons or free online :( Oh well, hopefully one of these days someone will upload something better... Thanks again, and please let me know if there's anything else that needs work. Dana boomer (talk) 15:09, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
