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: Marius doesn't understand the concept of birthdays. But he always looks forward to what he calls 'delicious day'. His owner is a pastry chef and always takes a day off to spend time with him and to prepare a horse-friendly snack for her boy's birthday. Marius is especially keen on eating the carrot cake - While he usually likes to share food with other horses, requesting a piece of this cake rewards you with threateningly pulled back ears.
The rest of the day is usually spent taking a ride through the former quarry (a place Marius always walks to when given free rein, because he is fascinated by it), a short picknick at the river, and sitting in his stall, reading stories from an old book his owner inherited from her grandmother. Marius likes listening to stories, even though he usually doesn't understand that much of them. But the calm reading voice of his owner usually soothes him into sleep somewhere near the end.
He doesn't understand why this day is so special to her, but he appreciates the time he can spend with his favorite human even more than the delicious treats.

Prompt: Milo doesn't know what a birthday is or even experienced one. He just assumes it is like any other day of the year. He never gets anything more than he gets everyday, which isn't much. He gets what he needs to survive as well as perform well and that is it. He wakes up, gets tacked, trains, and then rests, like every other day. Will you be the one to teach him what a birthday really means?

Prompt: He does not know why, but one single day every year his owner takes him on a trailride to his favorite beach and let him run as fast as he wants. After a long ride at the beach they go home to rest and he gets a carrot cake, which it the hightlight of his day, because he loves food. He then spend the rest of the day relaxing on the field and eat lots and lots of grass
