Thoroughbred (sh)




Light breed of racing and jumping horse descended from three desert stallions brought to England between 1689 and 1724.

Thoroughbreds have a delicate head, slim body, broad chest, and short back. Most are bay, chestnut, brown, black, or gray. They stand about 16 hands (64 in., 163 cm) high and weigh about 1,000 lbs (450 kg). They are sensitive and high-spirited and are often used to improve other stock.
