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.

Halter: Dark purple with your choice of accent. Something neat and tidy! c:
Prompt: Miriel was, as she recalls, a horse in a past life, too. But she was the mount of a practicing hedgewitch, and used as a carrier of all things herb related. She recalls being small, much moreso than now, but she was a strong one, and as her master grew frail she knows that she helped her walk before carrying the old woman during gathering trips or home visits. Times were dim, she remembers, and while she knows the old woman died peacefully she cannot say for sure what happened to her at the end. But she has feelings of being cold at the forefront. This leeches into her current life, absolutely hating the cold in any form, but she’s glad to have a stable to call her own when the weather turns chill.

Barn Name: Mako
Gender: Stallion
Height: 14.3hh
Halter: Sharktooth print
Prompt: Mako is convinced he was a shark in a past life, the mighty king of the ocean. In his current life he has always felt drawn to the ocean, and frequently dreams of elegantly gliding through the water. Mako still feels the urge to be constantly moving, constantly on the lookout for danger or his next meal. He can be a bit more aggressive and reactive than your usual Trotter, but he makes up for this with his seemingly endless endurance and athleticism. Mako is determined to rule over the land with as much vigor as he did as a powerful shark long ago.
