Andalusian

Most of the American stock horse breeds are used for cattle work, including the Quarter Horse, the Paint Horse, the Appaloosa, and various cross-breeds of them.

In theory, any breed can work cattle, but the stock horse breeds are known for their "cow sense." Andalusians are highly prized in some regions for their bravery and cow sense.

Arabians are intelligent, trainable, and have great agility and endurance: all of which are important when working with cattle. But in the end, it really depends on the horse. The most popular breed for western riding and ranch work is generally the Quarter Horse, but Arabians are not entirely uncommon. Don't expect to go out there without training and your Arab to just instinctively know what to do (very rarely is an horse like that,) but there's no reason an Arab can't be a fanstatic cow horse.
