It seems like 80% of people had some sort of ayrab when they learned to ride (People who I talk to anyways) and I those 80% are generally decent riders. I think what it boils down to, is while arabs can be hot little firecrackers, they're also KIND. I think of ALL the stupid things I did with my mom's broodmares even (I was one of those kids that would get put down for a nap, then would sneak out when everyone thought I was sleeping only to cause mass amounts of shit. Not much's changed.) and the fact that I'm still alive is amazing. Then I think to the beginners at the barn with their arabs, and again, horse may be hotter but they have enough sense and kindness to not kill their owners.

But yeah, it boils down to individual horse 100% of the time.
