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.

Barn Name: Abyss
Gender: Mare
Halter: eye color
Prompt: Whiteboard. Plain and simple. Why you ask? Well, someday, somehow when Abyss was a foal, one of the smaller children (about 3 or 4) managed to get an edding into the barn, and yea... You know how that went. The toddler just wanted to give her a few more markings, but the owners of Abyss didn´t really like that idea. When the foal followed her mother to the pasture later that day, everyone was shocked why she had all those pitch black stripes and circles. It took a full day and a threat or two to ask the foal who did it, but finally the small child admitted to his sins. Of course they forgave the kid and had a good laugh about it afterwards, but to this day Abyss is still called "Whiteboard" by that particular kid, who by the way visits her almost daily.

Show Name: Vanishing Act
Barn Name: Ghost
Gender: Male
Halter: Black (with little ghosts?)
Prompt: His nickname is Ghost. He is always missing when you need him. He is very shy and he seems to silently run off when there is someone he doesn't know. He doesn't really stay at the stables, he just stays outside. The mares tell their foals silly (exaggerated) stories about him. They say "There is a horse around here, white as a ghost with a freckled rump. No one knows who he is or where he came from. Some say he really is a ghost. No one ever sees him." He is just like a ghost, he is hard to find and never really around.

Barn Name: Mudbray
Gender: Stallion
Halter: Eye color
Prompt: Mudbray received his barn name one day after a rainstorm. When he went out into the paddock, his coat was a bright, gleaming light cream. When he was retrieved later, he looked like the Pokémon Mudbray. He was completely covered in mud! From the tips of his ears to his hooves, every bit of him was brown. He didn't seem very sorry, and anytime there is even a bit of mud on the ground, he tries to recreate his messy look.

Barn Name: Firefly or "Fire" or "Hay-snitch"
Gender: Stallion
Halter: same color as spots on his lil booty <3
Prompt: Firefly earned the fun-loving nickname "Hay-snitch" when he would scream as if in pain whenever either of his stablemates attempted to steal the hay from his hay racks. The first time he did this the farmhands literally thought he managed to break his leg. Come to find out, they arrived at the scene of the crime of a simple bit of hay robbery. Now, they moved his hayrack to the center of his stall to prevent the Hay-snitch's scream to be heard.
