For horses, warm vs cold blood doen't mean the same as in general Biology. In the general biological classification all horses - like all mammals - are warm blooded. Cold vs warm blooded for horses have to do with breeds, not biology.

Horses are warmblooded mammals. However the terms Hotblood, Warmblood, and Coldblood are used to describe certain types and breeds of horses.

Hotblood: These are 'foundation breeds' such as Akhal-Teke's, Thoroughbreds, Arabians, Barbs, and Caspians among a few others. They are known for being fast, sensitive, and having good endurance.



Warmblood: These are 'combination breeds' that used both hot and cold breeds in their foundation. These are typically the sport and stock breeds that we have today, like Trakehners, Quarter Horses, Lippizaners, etc. The majority of breeds are warmblood types.



Coldblood: These are heavy breeds know for being strong, a bit slow physically, and very gentle. Like Clydesdales, Shires, Haflingers and Percherons among others. They are typically used to plow or pull heavy loads.
