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 1, Spanish, - trotador%20franc%C3%A9s
