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: Cloud is a sweet gentleman with nice manners and very good at dressage and dressage competitions. He was born on an illegal horse meat farm. Cloud's mother was taken exactly three hours after his birth and he was forced into drinking artificial milk. They changed their minds when they figured out he was 'infertile' (which is not true) and marked him as walking meat. Cloud was soon set to be executed and he had a feeling it was a certain day since he heard the humans talking about it in front of his mud-stall. He, that day, was sent to the chopper, a machine designed to take him and turn him into expensive meat for the poor since that's all they could have their hands on. As he was on the machine and the humans left chuckling, one of his stablemates, Lydia, sacrificed herself and giving him and the other horses a chance to escape. To this day, he hasn't seen Lydia but dreams of reuniting with her one day.

Prompt: PartyBoy had started out his career as an endurance horse, however he found little success in that field. He wasn't quite fit for running long distances and his rider eventually sold him to a little ranch out in the country. There, he became more or less a field decoration, spending all his days in the pasture with the little jersey cows that the ranch raised. His inactivity was almost as miserable as his time competing, he was out of shape and a little chubby from all that green grass. A few years after his arrival at the small farm, a woman decided to buy him off of the ranches for her son to learn to ride on. He was the perfect little pony to learn on! Lazy and pretty much a babysitter, he fit in perfect with the other lesson horses at Magee Run Ranch.
