thorougbreds for show jumping

Question
hello, why thoroughbreds are suitable for show jumping? do they have strong legs and hooves? what about arabs? they are suitable for show jumping

Answer
Hello Caine,

Thoroughbreds are suitable for show jumping because of their size (height) and their overall conformation.

Arabs are suitable for only low jumping, not high, because of the same reasons above. They would do for Pony Club mounts up to C1 or C2, but no higher, in my opinion.

Best wishes,
Dorothy
