I think it will vary depending on how you use them.
If you are picnic packing it won't matter much. A long as they want to follow you.
If you are looking towards off trail athletes then you will find the leaner dairy breeds with long legs will out perform the short leg muscled meat goats. Think marathon runners over body builders. Long legs make a difference climbing over things and keeping panniers from dragging in the brush and logs.
My favorite is Alpine and Lamancha or crosses between them.
