My personal favorite pony is the Australian Pony breed.

The Australian Ponies are highly talented with Dressage, Pony Racing, and just about any competitive pony sports. Australian Ponies are not only one of the most athletic of pony breeds, but they perhaps have the absolute best temperaments out of all the ponies. The Australian Pony behaves remarkably with children and is a wonderful type of riding pony for those who are beginner pony riders of all ages.
