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.

[wolfhaunt]

Username: wolfhaunt
Show Name: WH Blighted Child Of Loki
Barn Name: Ritual
Gender: Mare?
Height: 15hh
Halter Color: Artist's choice!
Prompt: Named after the horror film "The Ritual", in which a group of friends venture into a mysterious forest and begin experiencing increasingly unnatural and disturbing phenomenons; much to their terror, something old and sinister is hunting them. I don't want to spoil anything, but Norse mythology is prominent in the story, hence this trotter's show name. The creature design for this movie is absolutely fantastic and it is my favorite horror movie to this day! Please check it out on Netflix if you like creature features and horror.
