| We, as preservationists, breed first to produce a good horse rather than a narrow type. We seek the same characteristics which have governed horse breeding for centuries, in 444 BC Xenophon said, . . . care must be taken that the colt is gentle, tractable, and fond of man when he is sent to the horse-trainer. We know it is the same today; a good temperament is of first importance. We strive in our breeding program for the age-old hallmarks of all good horses: balanced conformation; strong bone; expressive eyes; prominent nostrils to drink the wind. We have, over many years, proven our horses' worth in rigorous performance competition. We strive to produce horses of such temperament, soundness, and athleticism a Bedouin of yesterday would entrust his life to them.
