warmblood
Internally regulated animal
A warmblood is a type of horse bred for sport, combining the size and calm temperament of heavy draft breeds with the athleticism and spirit of lighter riding horses.
The term distinguishes them from hot-blooded breeds like Arabians and Thoroughbreds and cold-blooded draft horses.
Warmbloods dominate Olympic equestrian disciplines: She competes on a Dutch warmblood in dressage.
