I think you want Thoroughbred, it's tall and pretty, has decent stats too. I found mine around between Little Creek River and Big Valley. I pretty much like this horse because they have one of the best temper (don't get scare easily)

The Silver Dapple Pinto is pretty good. :)

Thanks for the tip, but I want a real good one.

Is he big? I'm tired of all the good horses being small and skinny.

they are pretty good. one of the biggest ones in particular is a war horse that pretty much never flees from combat

edit: also has relatively high acceleration and the top speed is great for a war horse

Ignoring stats, the "big" horses in game, like in real life, are the draft horses - Shires mainly, but also Suffolk Punch. These horses are beastly. They tend to be slow to start moving, but they have decent stamina.

i would agree with "pat" above that the next horse by size would be Thoroughbred - these are beautiful, athletic horses that can be found roaming the plains of New Hanover.

The big Andalusians and Hungarian Halfbreds, with their high health, are of similar size, followed closely by the Ardennes and Dutch Warmbloods

Fox Trotters, Turkomans, and Kentucky Saddlers appear a bit smaller to me, but the next big step in size down is the drop to Appaloosa's and American Standardbreds, which are still medium sized horses.

The smallest horses are the Paints, the Mustangs, and oddly, the Arabians (which sometimes feel almost "my little pony" in size).

The best horse imo, for the proper stats and size, is the Missouri Fox Trotter, but "best" doesn't really matter in this game - just sell all those tiny Arabians and stick with whatever u like.

My main horse for a good portion of the game is the Few Spotted Appaloosa - but quite honestly, ANY horse will do - so find one you like, and fit it with a good saddle & stirrups
