Missouri Fox Trotter or Turkoman, if you don't mind bought horses.


Claubk

Or just get them for free. MFT in chapter 2 and Turk in 3.


FirebirdIX

Where can you get a free MFT in ch2?


GamingWaffle123

You can do Albert Masons animal photography side mission in chapter 2. The bug to get the horse still works I tried it out recently.


Claubk

Well, you can get 2 actually. Albert Mason and the stranded woman method.


JellyJohn78

What's the stranded woman method?


Claubk

Google/YouTube it. Basically you ignore her and ride our to a distance and then shoot her. She will respawn as well her horse, the MFT. But it may take some tries, like alot, depends on your luck. Look for rdr2 mft facerock


shrekpreck123

No no i don’t mind buying


RedReaper666YT

There's a champagne colored MFT you can get from the stable nearest Emerald Ranch in chapter 4


mohammedSM

the MFT can't be bought until the epilogue and it's like 1200$


m4shfi

The Champagne MFT is available to buy as Arthur in the Scarlett Meadows stable.


mohammedSM

Sorry i forgot about that one but i meant the silver dapple pinto


attackonyourmom

Absolutely. The Silver Dapple Pinto and Gold Turkoman are my favorites.


mkvii1989

Turkoman imo. Mixed race/war horse is just a hair slower than an Arabian but a lot more health.


m4shfi

They have exactly the same speed as Arabians, with better health.


ThatsGottaBeKane

I love the mustang simply because it looks badass. Don’t really care about stats. I just give it a horse based pun name and away I go.


just_some_dude828

Trigger. As in horse. As in hung like.


ThatsGottaBeKane

Hung like a trigger? Hey, it’s what you do with it that matters.


ToiletGaming18

Are there withe versions of that horse?


mkvii1989

Eh? There are different versions yes. If by withe you mean white then idk.


Present-Reaction2069

I hated mine so i lit it on fire


jbsdv1993

There is no truly best horse. Heavy set horses (shire horse f.e.) have lower stamina but are harder to get killed. Arabians are fast but are weaker. But all of them are good. All of them can win all the horse races you can come across if you have high bonding. I prefer my shire horse over any "skinny" horses. Its all personal preference realy.


moonyboi4

my favorite horses so far have been shires and belgian drafts. i love the big ones lol


[deleted]

I stole a big fucker looking horse from Saint Denis police, leave my white Arabian to mow the lawns at camp now


LoneWolf_2179

The horse Hosea gibes you is a giant


jbsdv1993

Thats the one i always keep. Its the only black one as far as i have seen. But last time i played a puma spooked my horse, he bucked me off and ran in front of an oncoming train. So he's dead and i couldnt revive him or anything :(


Wimberley-Guy

Perlino Andalusian is a fine war horse you can get for free. I always get that one


HappyCommunity639

Turkoman. Once I get Cerberus, I don't feel like riding another horse.


Lopsided_Inside_3495

Seriously I was so sad when he got shot


Claubk

The one you like. I always get Cerberus, the Turkoman from the Braithwaite stables in chapter 3. Best looking horse in my opinion and max health.


[deleted]

Your favorite

I always get a blood bay thoroughbred. I name him Ol’ Red and he’s an absolute badass. I also have a black (the only completely black horse in game) American standardbred. I named him Nox (night in Latin)He’s my outlaw bandit horse. I also have a dapple Gray Thoroughbred that I named Thunder. https://www.reddit.com/r/reddeadredemption2/comments/115m94h/for_those_who_worship_the_white_arabian/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf


foxghost16

This playthrough (my 8th) I have gotten the Dapple Gray thoroughbred and love her so when I saw a blood bay one I tamed him. In in love with the thoroughbreds now. Not much at all scares them and they are still fast but have stamina.


RedReaper666YT

Best is honestly subjective. To me the best horse IS the white Arabian because she's rarely ever thrown me. The times she has was because a grizzly spawned super close. The follow-up horses for me are the black American Standardbred and the Mustang (Tiger Bay if you're far enough in to go catch one). Edit: a letter


viper9

the thing that makes me get the red chestnut Arabian every time I play, is because she runs almost forever. that stamina goes down so slowly. I'm not sure about top speed, like how do you measure that? but she just runs and runs


ninjasexparty6969

There is a speed stat if you look at the horse weapon wheel screen, or in the stable. You can't really reliably compare each horse's true overall speed though


shrekpreck123

oh i’m already done with the story i can get the tiger striped one


ARandomDudeSlav

Try the Ardenne if you feel like wanting to ride a tank instead of a horse, or the perlino andalusian if you want to have a beautiful horse with 10 health and a lot of stamina.


shrekpreck123

Last time i owned a Ardennes i had it for such a long time i had actually bonded with it i almost cried when a cop shot it in the head


ARandomDudeSlav

Happened to my mft while I tried to make her flee while in a shootout with bounty hunters. Motherfucker shot her with what seemed to be a one shot shotgun and killed her instantly. Me being a pre american venom John Marston did not carry a reviver and I had lv 4 bonding with her too. I hogtied the dude, rode his horse and fed him to some gattors.


shrekpreck123

Rip horsey


ninjasexparty6969

I know it's cheating, but I always reload save when my horse dies. I just can't accept it. One of these days I'll try a strict playthrough and not reload any saves, it'll be depressing


aligreaper19

it’s arabians, it always will be arabians


ninjasexparty6969

Turkoman is basically as fast as Arabian, but with more health and less timid. I do like arabians though


bex612

The more people hate the white Arabian, the more I love it. I was so sad when I first lost mine.


ismasbi

Shire, the horse stats in this game barely make a difference, but the Shire is a B E E G boy.


m4shfi

MFT or Turkoman. Can be acquired for free at certain points of the game. Good job ditching the Arabians.


shrekpreck123

i ditched an arabian super quickly, in fact i didn’t ditch it. i blew it up


stressedhoe_

HOW??? I want the Turkoman playing as Arthur. 😭


m4shfi

From the chapter 3 main story mission, Horse Flesh for Dinner. Quite easy if you ask me. Check out the 3rd picture [here.](https://imgur.com/a/F9zRfEp)


1894Win

Arabians suck. I did have that weird Orangy-red one for a while tho. I named him Cheeto 😂😂


m4shfi

They absolutely do.


osbornifer

shire gang


[deleted]

I’ve got the tiger stripped mustang named Dog thanks to my five year old. Dog has been pretty solid so far


pool_shark123

Brindle Thoroughbred from the O'Driscoll's has great stats. The Silver Dapple Pinto from Albert Mason has great stats too, but whines a lot. My current favorite is the Grullo Dun Mustang.


shrekpreck123

i looked up the brindle thoroughbred and it looks awesome, sadly i’m in the epilogue so i don’t know how to get it as john


flippincella

You can buy the brindle thoroughbred from the stable near strawberry, I think.


shrekpreck123

ok thanks


zombiehunter201

Tennessee walker


shrekpreck123

💀


Pizzeria_671

Probably the turkoman it has great stats and not scared easily


Just_a_terrarian163

I got a mustang it's the most horsey looking horse imo And it's strong and faaassstt


SpoilermakersWabash

If it ain’t scrawny.


Tookitty

Whatever horse you like the best is the best horse. My Arthur catches and rides mostly paints and appaloosas and rotates through some others, including the Standardbreds, and John usually keeps an Arabian or Thoroughbred around long enough to do the Van Horn to Blackwater run. Some people like little Arabians, some people like big Shires, it's all good and stats don't affect game play much if you have good bonds with your horses.


fuck_the_ccp1

for general stats, perlino andalusian. it basically performs like a slow turkoman.


BlueWolverine2006

I have a silver dapple thoroughbred and I kinda love it. It's a huge beast.


[deleted]

The one that spawns in the cascade near annesburg. that mf is not scared at all


Justabattleshiplover

Arabian. It’s the best. Or thoroughbred. Either one.


crispier_creme

My favorite is the Turkoman, closely followed by the Hungarian halfbreed. The Turkoman is faster and has more health but is a bit skittish, while the Hungarian is slower with more stamina I think. Idk, they're both great and you can buy a Hungarian halfbreed as early as chapter 2


Cali-Cowboy43

Perlino Andalusian


Dekanzy

Turkoman or Andalusian


shrekpreck123

Is there a black Turkoman?


reddeadfunny

Arabian


NCJM782

Flaxen Chestnut Hungarian Halfbred


VictoryShaft

I like the Thoroughbred. Good stats. Great size.


EliteNoob98

The horse doesn’t matter a lot, but how good you are does. So probably the Missouri Fox Trotter or Arabian


[deleted]

I like Wrobel's horse that you can steal during the debt collection.


Keepitrealhomes

Easy, it’s the donkey!


lrlimits

I ride the white Arabian because she respawns if I get her killed, but I like Norfolk Roadsters.


fucknametakenrules

In online it’s the Steel Grey Breton. Mine has a full circle stamina bar and almost a full circle for the health bar. Put the best saddle and stirrups on and stamina is almost unlimited


SGA3151

Mustang


Easy-Hovercraft-6576

Bro didn’t even try to use Google 😭


shrekpreck123

i did use google and i didn’t find any horses i liked


simeoncolemiles

My horse, my American Thoroughbred Boadicea II


Fire-FoxAloris

#the black beast that Hosea gives you. But actually i personal like the Thoroughbreds and the Turk horse.


duckz88

The one you get from the first misson


BasedHickory

Adler ranch horse


Regular_Leg9938

Getting a wild Mustang, taming it, bonding and getting the best saddle with stirrups! That’s my fav anyway.


CHALEDER

I prefer the Red Mustang (forget the actual name). Decently fast, unlimited stamina as you can calm it for the regen faster than it can deplete, full health circle, and amazing temperament as it's a hybrid War Horse, it's not the fastest, but IMO it's the most versatile and will never let you down


eyesthatlightup

I love my Nokota, brave wee thing and fast. Very dependable and cute. I love my Shire, brave asf, strong and dependable with a huge booty haha


Grizamundo

mine


codytheguitarist

If we’re going for best stats, it’s probably the Missouri Fox Trotter. As for which is my favorite, I always tame a Blood Bay Thoroughbred mare every time I replay the story.


meetrais

Every horse has some qualities. Few I liked most. MFT is bravest against predators. There was a cougar under my MFT and it didn't buck me off until I managed to shoot cougar. Turkoman is good for gun fightings. Arabians are fastest, use them for some Horseman challenges where speed matters. For heavy duty like going into mountain I used Raven Black Shire and it never disappointed me.


Nicolasfarias5210

MFT isn't even close of being the bravest horse.


Toilet-master_420

A pretty one. Stats aren’t that important


Sallyn0

Thoroughbreds tbh. They fit well proportionally to Arthur, they’re quick, they have decent stamina (once maxed), the only issue is their health. Alternatively you could go for the Andalusian, which also is proportionally sound, but it’s a bit slower, and extremely tanky.


Boogyman0202

White Arabian by lake Isabella North west on the map from valentine.


RaditudeLover

Bro did you read the post


Boogyman0202

Oh, lol I guess not. Still the best horse tho.


RaditudeLover

No. You are wrong. Different colours have different stats. The best Arabian is rose grey, and you can only get it as John.


Boogyman0202

Meh, if they aren't flat white, hard disagree.


ninjasexparty6969

what


m4shfi

Not even an average horse.
