  • List of Horse Breeds 1 List of Horse Breeds
    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS. Heavy or draft horse breeds For additional information, see horse breed, horse breeding and the individual articles listed below.

  • S®A Standardbred Owners Association of New York
    STANDARDBRED OWNERS S®A ASSOCIATION OF NEW YORK TESTIMONY FROM NYS HARNESS HORSEMEN REGARDING HEALTH AND SAFETY OF HORSES AND AFTERCARE Submitted to the NYS Senate Committee on Racing & Wagering June 5, 2019 Thank you Chairman Addabbo and members of the Committee for the opportunity to submit this testimony on the topics of race horse health and safety and aftercare. My name is Joe Faraldo and lam President of the Standardbred Owners Association of New York (SOA), representing harness horsemen, owners, trainers and other racing and agriculture industry stakeholders across our state. First and foremost, as someone who has been involved in harness racing for nearly half a century, I can tell you that our industry not only has a long-standing and proven commitment to the well-being of our sport and our horses, but we also have a larger commitment to being good stewards of the standardbred breed. The sport is hundreds of years old, and it endures through the stewardship of those who place the health and welfare of its four-legged athletes first. Therefore, we continually strive to improve regulatory structures, better educate our participants, weed out bad actors and develop new safety protocols...all in the name of advancing harness racing and protecting horses. However, what we have found is that too often the phrase “horse racing” — with absolutely no distinction between thoroughbreds and Standardbreds — is used when discussing many of these regulatory and safety issues and so I would like to focus my testimony on the critical importance of understanding this distinction. WHY IS THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN HORSE BREEDS CRITICAL FOR REGULATORS AND POLICY MAKERS WHEN IT COMES TO HEALTH AND SAFETY? The fact is that harness horses--or “Standardbreds” --area heavier, stouter and much more durable breed than the thoroughbreds or quarter horses the public generally pictures as race horses.

  • Kentucky Horse Racing Commission Withdrawal Guidelines Thoroughbred; Standardbred; Quarter Horse, Appaloosa, and Arabian KHRC 8-020-2 (11/2018)
    Kentucky Horse Racing Commission Withdrawal Guidelines Thoroughbred; Standardbred; Quarter Horse, Appaloosa, and Arabian KHRC 8-020-2 (11/2018) General Notice Unless otherwise specified in these withdrawal guidelines or the applicable regulations and statutes, the following withdrawal guidelines are voluntary and advisory. The guidelines are recommendations based on current scientific knowledge that may change over time. A licensee may present evidence of full compliance with these guidelines to the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission (the “Commission” or “KHRC”) and the stewards as a mitigating factor to be used in determining violations and penalties. These withdrawal interval guidelines assume that administration of medications will be performed at doses that are not greater than the manufacturer’s maximum recommended dosage. Medications administered at dosages above manufacturer’s recommendations, in compounded formulations and/or in combination with other medications and/or administration inside the withdrawal interval may result in test sample concentrations above threshold concentrations that could lead to positive test results and the imposition of penalties. The time of administration of an orally administered substance, for the purposes of withdrawal interval, shall be considered to be the time of complete ingestion of the medication by the horse via eating or drinking. Brand names of medications, where applicable, are listed in parentheses or brackets following the generic name of a drug. In addition to the requirements contained in KRS Chapter 13A, the KHRC shall give notice of an amendment or addition to these withdrawal guidelines by posting the change on the KHRC website and at all Kentucky racetracks at least two weeks before the amendment or addition takes legal effect.

  • Driving a Morgan Offers Endless Possibilities
    Magazine Articles Driving a Morgan Offers Endless Possibilities Written by Suzy Lucine “Morgans are a very intriguing breed,“ said Suzy Stafford, whose Morgan mare, PVF Peace of Mind, was the 2016 USEF International Horse of the Year. “They have many natural attributes that lend them to be exceptional driving horses. The breed is a strong, powerful type with a trainable attitude and exceptional work ethic. The breed’s power to size ratio still baffles me. “Morgans were bred to drive,” Suzy explained. “Years of breeding traits that lend themselves to be good at the job of driving are very evident.” When a little bay stallion was foaled in 1789 in Springfield, Mass., you would be hard-pressed to find anyone in the area who believed he would become a prolific sire and change the face of American equine history. Justin Morgan, a teacher, composer and horseman, acquired the colt and named him Figure. Later, Figure became known by his owner’s name, and went on to become the foundation of the Morgan horse breed. Justin Morgan made a name for himself by out trotting, out pulling and out running the best horses the New England and Mid-Atlantic regions had to offer. However, his everlasting contribution to the breed came with his ability to pass his distinguished characteristics on to his offspring and several generations to follow. During this era, equine enthusiasts were looking for horses that were gentle, easy to train, and were sound with natural ability and agility. Soon people were looking for horses that also looked good, and those rich with Morgan blood fit the bill.
