How are they to handle? some look a little "wild". I love horses, and I'm very intrested in these old type horses, like Akhal Teke and Caspian horses. Love this video.

I think you should go back to school and learn how to write in English. Since you like thoroughbreds so much, maybe you should read up on the genetics of one to find out whether or not they would have existed if it wasn't for this breed of "ugly" horse!

The teke is an ancient breed who has survived the harshest conditions. Those conformation 'flaws' did not hurt its survival chances and probably the horses came originally from a small selection so the flaws became more prevalent in the breed.

The breed a hot blood is primarily a racing, endurance and throughout history a war horse. In addition it's a desert breed coming from some of the most hostile and dangerous environments on the planet. A high set neck is needed to look out for predators, snakes etc. Too much unnecessary muscle to maintain in arid conditions is a waste and would jeopardise it's survival.
What you're looking for is a warmblood, you won't find those attributes in this horse. We love it for other reasons.

Okay all you AT lovers out there... The akhal teke is a lovely mover, but can someone explain why every example of the breed I've ever seen is upside down in the neck and has little to no topline? Even the dressage videos I've seen are of high headed horses with minimal topline.
