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.

I'm obsessed with roaned white and don't use it nearly enough. To win this trotter, tell me what marking you wish you saw more of!

Prompt: I am not sure how common they actually are but I haven't seen too many Malaysian Snakeheads and the different Types of Grey seem criminally underused to me so far. I have yet to see a Badger Grey and only saw one Lemur Grey and Aye Aye Grey iirc.

Prompt: This isn't a marking... but the breed specific dilution, more specifically the olive and slate dilution, I feel like they get forgotten. But on the marking front it would be musk ox and mynah white... basically a lot of the biome markings.
