As breeder, trainer and judge of Arabian horses, I can honestly say that there are great horses of both sexes. The stallion or gelding usually are a bit stronger when it comes to racing or endurance rides, but have no real apprecial advantage on most show discipines. They also do not suffer from a few mares problem of hormonal swings, but a gelding can not be bred. A stallion has to be handle with more care and heightened observation a sex is almost always on a stallions mind when around other horses. To house a stallion you generally have increased stabling and man care issues. Mares and geldings can be run together, and Fencing issues/cost are usually a bit less Every trainer and owner has his/he preferences when working with the different sexes. I personally prefer working with stallions and gelding, even though one of my most winning horses (an I still own) won 6 netional top tens and is a mare. Clarification to this question would be more helpful in answering. Is the person going to race, breed, show the horse? If so what events? Is the question in regards to handling and housing issues? Cost of purchaing a quality stallion/gelding or mare?
