Breeds of Horses
- Thoroughbred
The Thoroughbred was developed in England for racing and jumping utilizing Arabian and Barb stock. During the reigns of James I and Charles I, forty-three Royal Mares were imported into England and the General Stud Book was begun. This book listed only those horses that traced their lines back to the original mares and three others:
* The Byerly Turk
* The Darley Arabian
* The Godolphin Barb
The English Thoroughbred has been introduced to most countries where it is used for racing, hunting and jumping, and to improve local breeds.
Bulle Rock, a son of the Darby Arabian, was imported to Virginia, USA, in 1730, leading the way for 186 others over the next forty-five years; which became the foundation for United States Thoroughbred breeding.
An equine with a delicate head, slim body, broad chest, and short back, the Thoroughbred possesses a long easy stride. Thoroughbreds are usually bay, brown, chestnut, black, or grey; averaging 16 hands and weighing about 1000 pounds.
Known for speed and stamina, Thoroughbreds have been used to improve breeds such as the American Quarter Horse, Appaloosa, Paints, among others. The classic Warmblood is produced by a draft breed, such as a Belgian, crossed with a Thoroughbred. This combination provides for a level headed, large, powerful animal preferred for hunting, jumping and combined training.
