I feel so sad for the donkeys.. They work hard and then drop..
Little respect for them.. as they are easily replaced..

In another world I would be a wealthy landowner surrounded by these sad gentle creatures..

Cyril was on holiday down in Benidorm
And the first day there was a sunny morn
So he found his sun cream
And his hair he did preen
And a gold chain was worn

I suspect that war horses were not that big .
But compact and strong with plenty of bone 
Usually  native sturdy breeds and Spanish horses re known for their sturdiness and spirit .
Henry the VIII actually made a law against ponies as he wished to encourage the use and breeding of bigger horses ( especially for war) 
In the film Robin Hood with Russell Crowe most of the horses used their are PRE ( Pura  Rasa Espaniol  ) Andulusian or other Iberian breeds .
These would have been similar to the war horses of the day

It dropped down cold during the night here,  but lovely sunshine this morning again.
Waiting for my computer man now,  he said about 10-ish.
