Any horse can do lower levels of dressage, not to well for some, but they can. If you are looking for a good quality dressage horse that can take you higher, go for a warmblood. I prefer Oldenburgs and Dutch Warmbloods. But Hanovarians, Trakehners, TBs, and Swedish Warmbloods also do well. No matter what anyone tells you, do NOT I repeat NOT get a gaited horse such as a Tennessee Walker or Morgan. They look pretty in Saddle Seat Equitation but the pretty gaits they have were not meant for dressage.

if you want a horse that will be successful in jumping, a thoroughbred x irish draught, a holsteiner or hanerovian would be good.

if you want an allrounder an irish sports horse#if u want a racer, a thouroughbred or an american quarter horse

if you want a pony that are are good allrounders, geta conemara

any horse that is well trained will do as a dressage horse

Good Show Jumping Horses should have good legs and lots of muscle. They should have good endurance and energy. you can use most breeds ,but never put a novice rider on a horse that is quite energetic or can spook a lot.

Conformation wise you would want to look for long flexible legs, high set withers, a short back, and when the horse tucks his/her front legs that they're held equally not lazily hanging there (which could be cause by a long forearm which doesn't make a good jumper) and that they're not to close together a shorter neck and that they're not clumsy.

Breed wise: Hanoverian, dutch warmblood, thoroughbred, oldenburg and trakehner. Under 58 inches welsh pony and small Arabian

Usually thoroughbreds and thoroughbred crosses. Irish sports horses.. strong sturdy horses. (:

I would have to say Thoroughbreds, ISH, thoroughbreds x Warmbloods.
