Editor's Notes
- The top right pic is a pony, the top left is a heavy horse and the running horses at the bottom are light horses. Mention that the explanation of measuring horses is the next slide.
- Blanket - white over the hip area with a contrasting base color; Spots - white or dark spots over all or a portion of the body; Blanket with spots - a combination of the above two; Roan; Roan Blanket - has roan pattern over a portion of the body, usually the hips; Roan Blanket with Spots - the roan blanket has spots within it; and, Solid - coat has no contrasting color in the form of an Appaloosa coat pattern. Leopard coats are white with dark spots; Snowflake coats have dominant spotting over the hips; Frost coats have white specks with a dark background.
- Great for endurance racing, etc. Recall on personal experience with first horse.
- Used for civil war enactments because so bomb proof and also excels on the racing track
