Title: Cleveland Bay
Passage: The Cleveland Bay is a breed of horse that originated in England during the 17th century, named after its colouring and the Cleveland district of Yorkshire.  It is a well-muscled horse, with legs that are strong but short in relation to the body.  The horses are always bay in colour, although a few light hairs in the mane and tail are characteristic of some breed lines.  It is the oldest established horse breed in England, and the only non-draught horse developed in Great Britain.  The ancestors of the breed were developed during the Middle Ages for use as pack horses, when they gained their nickname of "Chapman Horses".  These pack horses were crossbred with Andalusian and Barb blood, and later with Arabians and Thoroughbreds, to create the Cleveland Bay of today.  Over the years, the breed became lighter in frame as they were employed more as carriage and riding horses.  The popularity of the Cleveland Bay has greatly fluctuated since it was first imported to the United States in the early 19th century.  Despite serious declines in the population after the Second World War, the breed has experienced a resurgence in popularity since the 1970s, although only around 550 horses existed worldwide as of 2006.
Title: Clydesdale horse
Passage: The Clydesdale is a breed of draught horse named for and derived from the farm horses of Clydesdale, a county in Scotland.  Although originally one of the smaller breeds of draught horses, it is now a tall breed.  Often bay in color, they show significant white markings due to the presence of sabino genetics.  The breed was originally used for agriculture and haulage, and is still used for draught purposes today.  The Budweiser Clydesdales are some of the most famous Clydesdales, and other members of the breed are used as drum horses by the British Household Cavalry.  They have also been used to create and improve other breeds.
Title: Nonius horse
Passage: The Nonius (Hungarian: "Nóniusz" ) is a Hungarian horse breed named after its Anglo-Norman foundation sire.  Generally dark in color, it is a muscular and heavy-boned breed, similar in type to other light draft and driving horses.  The breed was developed at the Imperial Stud at Mezőhegyes, Hungary by careful linebreeding.  Originally bred to serve as a light draft and utility horse for Hungary's military, the breed became a useful agricultural horse during the 20th century.  The depredations of World War II significantly reduced the Nonius' population, and in the decades after the war, a downturn in the usage of horses in Hungary sent many members of the breed to slaughter.  Today the breed is bred by preservationists and is used in agriculture, leisure riding, and competitive driving sports.  The largest numbers of Nonius horses are still found at Mezőhegyes, with representatives in other eastern European nations as well.
Title: Jutland horse
Passage: The Jutland horse (Danish: "Den jyske hest" ) is a draft horse breed originating in Denmark, named after the Jutland Peninsula which forms the western part of the country.  Usually chestnut, they are a compact, muscular breed known for their calm and willing temperament.  The breed was originally developed for use in agriculture, but today is more often seen in urban settings and at horse shows.  Some of the best known members of the breed pull beer wagons for the Carlsberg brewery around Copenhagen, as well as at competitions and for demonstrations.  Images from the 9th century show a horse similar to the Jutland being used by Viking raiders in what is now Great Britain.  The first written record is from the 12th century, when they were popular as war horses.  Some infusion of bloodlines from other breeds occurred in the 18th century, but the modern Jutland type only began about 1850 with the addition of blood from several other breeds, mainly draft horses.  A stud book was created in the late 19th century, and the Jutland population grew to a maximum of around 15,000 by 1950.  Numbers subsequently declined, and as of 2011 it is estimated that there are only about 1,000 horses remaining.
Title: Galiceno
Passage: The Galiceno is a horse breed developed in Mexico, bred from horses brought from Spain by Hernán Cortés and other conquistadors.  Although small in stature, they are generally considered a horse, rather than a pony, and are always solid-colored.  In Mexico, they are an all-around horse, used for riding, packing and light draft.  In the United States they are often used as mounts for younger competitors, although they are also found competing in Western events.  The breed descends from horses brought from Spain to Mexico during the 16th century.  Many of these horse escaped or were released and formed feral bands in the interior of Mexico, which were then captured by local inhabitants.  They were also often used by Spanish missionaries to the American West, where they became some of the ancestors of the American Indian Horse.  In 1958, these horses were first imported to the United States, and in 1959 a breed registry was formed.  Many of the horses are also registered with the American Indian Horse Registry.
Title: Canadian horse
Passage: The Canadian horse is a horse breed from Canada.  It is a strong, well-muscled breed of horse, usually dark in colour.  The horses are generally used for riding and driving.  Descended from draft and light riding horses imported to Canada in the late 1600s, it was later crossed with other British and American breeds.  During the 18th century the Canadian horse spread throughout the northeastern US, where it contributed to the development of several horse breeds.  During the peak popularity of the breed, three subtypes could be distinguished, a draft horse type, a trotting type and a pacing type.  Thousands of horses were exported in the 19th century, many of whom were subsequently killed while acting as cavalry horses in the American Civil War.  These exports decreased the purebred Canadian population almost to the point of extinction, prompting the formation of a studbook and the passage of a law against further export.
Title: Morgan horse
Passage: The Morgan horse is one of the earliest horse breeds developed in the United States.  Tracing back to the foundation sire Figure, later named Justin Morgan after his best-known owner, Morgans served many roles in 19th-century American history, being used as coach horses and for harness racing, as general riding animals, and as cavalry horses during the American Civil War on both sides of the conflict.  Morgans have influenced other major American breeds, including the American Quarter Horse, Tennessee Walking Horse and the Standardbred.  During the 19th and 20th centuries, they were exported to other countries, including England, where a Morgan stallion influenced the breeding of the Hackney horse.  In 1907, the US Department of Agriculture established the US Morgan Horse Farm near Middlebury, Vermont for the purpose of perpetuating and improving the Morgan breed; the farm was later transferred to the University of Vermont.  The first breed registry was established in 1909, and since then many organizations in the US, Europe and Oceania have developed.  There were estimated to be over 175,000 Morgan horses worldwide in 2005.
Title: Budweiser Clydesdales
Passage: The Budweiser Clydesdales are a group of Clydesdale horses used for promotions and commercials by the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Company.  There are several "hitches" or teams of horses, that travel around the United States and others that remain in their official homes at the company headquarters at the Anheuser-Busch brewery complex in St. Louis, Missouri, or at Merrimack, New Hampshire.  At St. Louis, they are housed in a historic brick and stained-glass stable built in 1885.  There are eight horses driven at any one time, but ten horses are on each team to provide alternates for the hitch when needed.  Assorted Clydesdales are also used as animal actors in television commercials for Budweiser beer, particularly in Super Bowl ads.
Title: Lusitano
Passage: The Lusitano, also known as the Pure Blood Lusitano or PSL ("Puro Sangue Lusitano"), is a Portuguese horse breed, closely related to the Spanish Andalusian horse.  Both are sometimes called Iberian horses, as the breeds both developed on the Iberian peninsula, and until the 1960s they were considered one breed, under the Andalusian name.  Horses were known to be present on the Iberian Peninsula as far back as 20,000 BC, and by 800 BC the region was renowned for its war horses.  When the Muslims invaded Iberia in 711 AD, they brought Barb horses with them that were crossed with the native horses, developing a horse that became useful for war, dressage and bull fighting.  In 1966, the Portuguese and Spanish stud books split, and the Portuguese strain of the Iberian horse was named the Lusitano, after the word Lusitania, the ancient Roman name for Portugal.  There are three main breed lineages within the breed today, and characteristics differ slightly between each line.  There is also the Alter Real strain of Lusitano, bred only at the Alter Real State Stud.
Title: Quarab
Passage: The Quarab is a horse breed from the United States, developed from a part-Arabian cross of Arabian horses, American Quarter Horses and Paint horses. Members of the breed are found that resemble all three of the foundation breeds, leading to three recognized types: Straight or Foundation (an even cross between the Arabian and stock horse types), Stock (a heavier emphasis on stock horse breeding) and Pleasure (a heavier emphasis on Arabian breeding).  Although there have been records of crosses between the three breeds throughout the history of their respective registries, the first Quarab registry was formed in 1984, but later went out of business.  In 1999, the International Quarab Horse Association was formed and remains the leading force in Quarab breeding.  In order to be registered with the IQHA, horses must have at least 1/8 blood from both the Arabian and stock horse types.
