For beginners, horse riding might be a tedious sport. At this point, you are yet to fully understand the behavior of horses and how to interact with them and ride them properly. While every horse has a distinct individuality, it is essential to note that some breeds are more appropriate when you have little to no experience. So as a beginner, you should stay away from breeds that are more inclined to be ill-tempered.

The Friesian horse is an appropriate horse for beginners. This horse is quite playful, and it enjoys rolling in the mud or straddling in water, just like dogs. The Friesian horse is famous for its bushy mane and tails. Friesian horses are also brilliant and are skilled in several equestrian sports.

The American quarter horse is equally ideal for beginners who intend to take part in horse riding. Albeit energetic, these horses are known for their mild temperament. American quarter horses are the most popular breed for horse racing in the United States and England because of their adaptability and reliability during harsh weather conditions.

Arabian horses are also good breeds for beginners. These horses were historically used for their speed and strength during battles. However, these horses are calm and quiet and are less likely to rebel during a race.
