Range Trotters are the result of crossbreeding Orlov Trotters, Finnhorses, Welsh Cobs (section C & D) and Hanoverians. Later crosses of Quarter Horses, Paint and Appaloosas to gain color and to give a boost to their hardiness.With a height average of 13-15 hands, they're a hardy breed with characteristics for various disciplines.

Created for use as work, carriage and leisure riding horses originally, they now serve as long-distance range horses, such as work with Park Rangers and mounted officers.

Willing and eager personalities, most are quickly trained to be bombproof and therefore trusted mounts in all lines of work; some are being seen in local show jumping competitions, others are notably used in therapeutic sessions for their calm temperaments. Harness races and endurance trials are common for the breed, as they are able to sustain an extended trot without tire. Cross-Country competitions see some of the taller Trotters, but due to their cob lineage this is still uncommon.

Despite the variety of competitions and work these horses are being seen in, they are still famously skilled as endurance racers. Many competitors have chosen Range Trotters due to their tireless work ethic, as well as the ease in which they can be trained. Many have become champions in endurance trials, and they have quickly become a sought after breed for their natural ability.

Prompt: In Princess' mind, the only fish to even come close to her in the beauty department is the Betta splendens. When she's not looking at herself, Princess would happily watch the Betta swim all day. With their elaborate, decorative fins, opalescent highlights, and vivid colours, Princess deems these fish fit for royalty!

Prompt:
Grizz's favorite fish species is Cheilopogon melanurus, or the Atlantic flying fish. He loves that they travel in schools and get to experience two facets of the earth frequently-- water and air! He also really just likes that they can fly. That's pretty dope.

Show Name: Dark Waters
Barn Name: Iravan (meaning 'king of the ocean' in Sanskrit, if I am wrong please tell me)
Gender: Male
Height: 14.1 hh
Halter Color: An orange complimentary to the purple of the eye (like lionfish?) or like the purple of the eye (both?). Your choice ^_^"
Prompt: They like their fish fried or grilled, either is fine. Oh! Alive.. Well they like fish that seem to have personality or are really pretty. The puffer fish, bettas and a variety of tropical fish are all on their favorites list. But if they have to name just one, they might go with the lionfish. :3 They just like the name and they look cool too!
(Though in some places they are considered an invasive species.)
