Yes, Tennessee Walking Horses are among the most versatile breeds and can be used for everything-however, they are probably not the best breed to be going to the highest levels with-not saying that they cannot. If you find a TWH witht he correct build for a jumping horse, you could go to the top with it with the correct training.

What is a Tennesee Walking horse?

A Tennessee Walking Horse is a breed of horse that was founded in Tennessee. They are a breed of gaited horse (meaning they have another gait besides the walk, trot and canter). A TWH performs the "running-walk", which is a lateral 4-beat gait that is extremely comfortable. It feels as if you are rocking side to side, but there is no jolting up and down movement at all.

What is the best 1st horse for a 5' 10 year old intermediate rider that does some English more western and trail riding?

Paint horses are good for western, and can be used for English too, so that could be a good horse for you. Tennessee Walking horses could be a nice option for you because they are very versatile and have great gaits for trail riding. I use my TWH mare for mostly trail riding, but I also use her for western and I do a little bit of casual bareback jumping on her- proof that TWH's can be used for everything you do.
