Owing to its Thoroughbred ancestry, the Trakehner is of rectangular build, with a long sloping shoulder, good hindquarters, short cannons, and a medium-long, crested and well-set neck. The head is often finely chiseled, narrow at the muzzle, with a broad forehead. It is known for its "floating trot" - full of impulsion and suspension. The Trakehner possesses a strong, medium-length back and powerful hindquarters. Trakehners are athletic and trainable, with good endurance, while some are more spirited than horses of other warmblood breeds. 3, record 1, English, - Trakehner

Elle est habituellement droite et taillée en même temps que sa parementure, en une seule pièce. Il s’agit donc d’une parementure d’extension. 1, record 3, French, - patte%20de%20fente
