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: This tenderhearted boy planned a whole evening for his Valentine: a romantic dinner for two (hay and some apples of course), a long walk in the evening to watch the fireflies come out, and finally laying out under the stars talking about everything under the sun until they're too sleepy to keep their eyes open any longer.

Barn Name: Maya
Gender: Mare
Height: 14.3 hh
Halter Color: Lilac purple, please. c:
Prompt: Maya is a lovely lady, and she simply adores her fellow mare, Ferae. So, because Maya has taken such an interest in the other, she learned all she could about what Ferae likes most; lilac flowers. There being a patch just outside the fence line of her preferred pasture, Maya easily leaped right over the vinyl barrier and snatched up as much as she could before leaping back into her shared paddock. Presenting Ferae with the bushel made the mare oh so happy, and spending the entire day with the other creamy mare was a delight for Maya.
