Racking Horse

The Racking horse is one of the most versatile horse breeds in existence. These horses participate in nearly every area needed. For example, they make great work horses in the fields as well as beautiful and prime horses for showing. The Racking horse is best known for being calm, beautiful, and full of stamina. Since prior to the start of the Civil War this breed of horse has steadily become extremely popular.

Riders found that the Racking horse could be comfortably ridden for several hours thanks to its natural, yet smooth gait. If you ask any horse expert they will tell you that the popularity of this breed is attributed to many things. Not only its versatility, but its intelligence as well.

This is one of the most beautiful horses of all horse breeds. The name Racking Horse is derived from its heritage of being a single foot horse. It's bloodlines extend from the walking horse. In the latter part of 1960, a man from Alabama, Joe Bright, created and began what is now known as the RHBA, Racking Horse Breeders Association.
