Define warmbloods please?

Not sure if warmblood is any specific breed, or if it is any horse with a lot of “get up and go” ,
But I’ll start off with Chuckles, my primary cavalry mount back in my days at Fort Hood, Texas.
Chuckles was a grade horse with a big chested, quartet horse build. A powerful and courageous horse. When you asked for speed, you’d better be ready. She knew her job, and would not tolerate a heavy hand. That horse would have charged a freight train had I asked.
That’s Chuckles and I with the guidon (little flag).

Hello,
@Cordillera Cowboy :
At first, I'm sorry for a delayed response; I should check the photo competition thread more often for possible questions or problems, but I've been bad at this, and have usually checked the thread when I set it up and when the enrollment closes. However, I'll take this feedback seriously and will check the future contest threads more often.
As to your question;
this is what I tried to mean with 'warmblood': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warmblood
However, based on your reply, seems that the concept of 'warmblood' isn't very common in Northern America where the most of the Horseforum.com members seem to live, so I've updated the definition of warmblood to mean more 'up and go' horses as you suggested in your message.
The enrollment period has been extended to Nov the 28th, and after that the poll will be set up. This means that the November contest will partially overlap the Dec contest, but I think that it's the only fair thing to do.
