Some may be crosses, but if you see a horse described as an Arabian Sport Horse, it usually means a pure-bred Arab who competes in Arabian Sport Horse halter classes rather than the mainstream Arabian halter classes. Sport Horse classes are a relatively new subdivision within Arab showing, started mainly because some people were unhappy with the increasing focus on 'type', at the expense of conformation, in Arabian halter showing. In the Sport Horse halter classes the emphasis is all on good sport-horse conformation and movement - not on exotic type and flamboyant presence.
But unlike, say, 'Irish Sport Horse', 'Arabian Sport Horse' is just an unoffocial, descriptive term, not a breed or a separate registry or anything - these horses will be registered as pure-bred Arabs in the normal Arab stud books.
