I have this theory as to WHY Neighsay prefers Ponies to non-Ponies:

Ponies are the only race with the capability for overt magic.

I don't mean stuff like shapeshifting or breathing fire, I mean actually casting magical spells. You know, Harry Potter, Gandalf, Doctor Strange, Merlin, that kind of stuff.

So, Neighsay would naturally see Ponies as the more "magically pure" race, and looks down on non-ponies in order to "keep Equestria magically pure".

It's like in "Korra", where benders have a prejudice towards non-benders.
