The French Trotter was developed in Normandy, France. In 1815, after the continental trading blockade was lifted, the Normandy breeders began to breed horses using the all-purpose Norman stock of horses as a foundation... The French Trotter is a strong horse with powerful, sloping quarters. The French Trotter is much like the Thoroughbred in appearance with long, raking action and good shoulders. The average height of the breed is 16. 2 hh and the best-ridden trotters are the bigger horses. The French Trotter is [a hardy] animal with lots of stamina. The national studs are the main breeding centers of Le Pin and Saint Lo. Also known as : Trotteur francais, Anglo-Norman Trotter, Norman Trotter. 3, record 2, English, - French%20trotter

Este caballo se desarrolló en Normandía, en el Noroeste de Francia, durante el siglo XIX. Sus antepasados fueron el Pura Sangre Inglés y el Trotón de Norfolk, famosos por su velocidad y por su destreza al marchar al trote, respectivamente; estas razas se cruzaron con yeguas Normandas nativas para obtener el Anglonormando (posteriormente conocido como Silla Francés) y el Trotón Francés. 2, record 2, Spanish, - trotador%20franc%C3%A9s

Ardennais, also known as the Belgian Ardennais or Ardennes, is a heavy-boned yet agile breed from the Ardennes region of France, Belgium, and Luxembourg. It is one of the earliest heavy breeds, with a recent strong infusion of Brabant blood for size and strength. It has a compact body, short back, and massive legs that are often covered with feathering. The Ardennais is easy to handle and, having developed in a harsh environment, is naturally hardy and economical to keep. 2, record 4, English, - Belgian%20Ardennes

L'ardennais Belge [...] Riche d'un passé militaire glorieux sous Napoléon d'abord, dans l'armée Belge ensuite, l'Ardennais fut, jusqu'en 1930 environ, un cheval de Trait léger et rapide. [...] Au cours du dernier quart du 19ème siècle,l'Ardennais Belge va subir une transformation profonde sous l'effet de nombreux croisements avec le Brabançon (cheval de Trait Belge de type lourd). [...] L'Ardennais Belge de la seconde moitié de notre siècle ressemble à s'y méprendre à un Brabançon si ce n'est qu'il est de plus petite taille, a une tête plus expressive et un tempérament plus vif. 2, record 4, French, - ardennais%20belge

The exact origin of the Bashkir Curly is one of the greatest mysteries of the horse world.... The modern day history of American Bashkir Curly dates to 1898, when young Peter Damele(Duh-mel' ly) and his father were riding the Peter Hanson mountain range in the remote high country of Central Nevada, near Austin. Peter, who passed away in 1981 at age 90, could vividly recall the strange sight they saw of three horses with tight curly ringlets over their entire bodies.... The Bashkir Curly transmits the curly characteristic to its offspring about fifty percent of the time, even when mated to horses without the curly coat. They also seem to be a hardy breed and able to survive severe winter conditions. 2, record 5, English, - American%20Bashkir%20Curly

Bashkir Curly Américain : petit cheval (145-155) aux poils frisés, élevé aux US. Pour certains auteurs il descend du Bashkir originel; d'autres sont plus prudents et se demandent encore d'où il vient. Il semble être présent aux US depuis le 19e. Même particularité : une robe aux crins longs et frisés en hiver, réputée anallergisante. Toutes robes admises. 1, record 5, French, - Bashkir%20Curly%20Am%C3%A9ricain
