 Buell
6 6 5 5

A nice clean shiny Buell being led towards mud. Buell is a unique, named, irreplaceable horse acquired at the completion of an optional stranger mission that comes available in Chapter 6. This mission can be completed at any time and I recommend completing it during the Epilogue chapters or after. He has the best stats of the Warmbloods and a bit of character and back story. All this horse bonding has made me very compulsive about their care. Recently I noticed that I reflexively press the calm/pet button on every level up. Good boah/girl! So it might even be a little beyond compulsive. Dirt shows so fast on Buell that I'm just constantly brushing him. It's my only beef. I thought I would see what happens if I rode through muddy streets and then travelled to a dusty town between brushings. Buell is definitely very unhappy.

Ruben 
4 5 3 3

Ruben is modelling a new saddle and I must say it really suits him. As with the female Seal Brown, I looked up a popular Dutch name starting with R. It felt like Ruben was bonded to level 4 really fast and I wasn't quite ready to part with him. He is available for sale at Strawberry Stable at the start of Chapter 3. I treated him much better than his female counterpart in my first playthrough.

Yes Hickstead, it is a long way down. Play through one Chocolate Roan was named after a famous female Dutch Warmblood so this one got the name of a famous male. I already had the horseman jumping challenge achievement but Hickstead won the speed upgrade for me at last.  Available at Valentine stable, this is one of the top early game mounts if you can afford it.

Diana the Huntress 4 5 3 3

She didn't get her name for being particularly stable but I just had great luck with her. She can be purchased from the Scarlett Meadows stable but I found her alone on the roadside nervously observing a grizzly down by a lake shore. I recorded this event but there is no audio. Something... something...capture card. We all survived the grizzly attack and went on to do some productive hunting. 

The next Dutch Warmblood is statistically the same as this one and they both rank lower than the Chapter 2 Chocolate Roan Dutch Warmblood. They rank about the same as the common race horses. Slightly slower but have good health and stamina. They are cheaper than the Chocolate Roan but this one can be stolen fairly easily.
