For starters, is it a Friesian that you want?

Frisians are the province of Friesland in the Netherlands, and whose ancestors were often used as war horses in Europe during the Middle Ages because of their grace and lightness. Friesians have inherited these attributes from their ancestors, which makes it a perfect match for the sport of dressage.

Other attributes that make it a good choice for dressage are their power, appearance and excellent body control. Because they are highly intelligent is obviously beneficial as well.

Because of their heavy, muscular body, Friesians do not work well for the race. However, their strength and weight are a good way as a horse carriage.

Friesians are used as show horses as well, often leaving their mane, tail, and feather (the hair on the lower legs) untrimmed, allowing them to grow long and thick. Their fur is usually black, although in rare cases, chestnut. A look at a strong Friesian and you'll quickly appreciate their value as the horse of choice for use in movies.

Overall, a Friesian horse is a good all around, whatever your needs. They are also good ways, comparatively, making it an excellent choice as a family horse.
