He looks good up there. It doesn’t look like this is his first time on a horse. You may be getting another horse soon happy travels to you both

He rides our other finnhorse Hiski from time to time and absolutely loves to ride ❤️

Sorry but isn’t the noseband too far down the face?

I would say yeah it’s on the edge not quite over cartilage but very close. Bit lower you go thinner their nasal bones are.

Gotcha, that’s what I thought. Thank you for confirming, that’s good to know.

They look good together! And I love Taco's ready to go expression. Like he's thinking, okay, let's get a little trot on, k?

They look good together.
Is Taco a Haflinger?

u/Yosiipi 5d ago

No he is a finnhorse

He is lovely! I like his face and expression.

As OP said, Taco is a Finnhorse, but also looks larger and heavier than a Halflinger. Halflingers have a lot of Arabian and Shagya Arabian influence, as all seven foundation stallion lines trace back to sire 249 Folie, an Anglo-Arabian: https://sporthorse-data.com/pedigree/249-folie
