Excellent. I'm glad the horse didn't take off with you. More Greek cavalrymen please!
The Thessalonian, noted for "beauty, courage and endurance" back in the early 3rd century. But are such horses from northern Greece now known as the Pindos? My "Boys Bumper Book of Horses" tells me they have poor quarters, tough feet and good stamina. They are known as good workers but stubborn. I would love to try one. I am very jealous.
Most horses we use are Welsh cobs crossed with thoroughbreds to produce a good sound all rounder.
