American Paint Horses bred for Classic competition

 

Years ago, it was hard to find a Paint Horse with good Quarter Horse breeding The formula has always been: Every generation, keep breeding them back to Quarter Horses & they keep getting better & better

The original American Paint Horse had no American Quarter Horse ancestry

They were hunters, not stock horses. The original ancient breed thrived & ran wild in the area we now call the Texas Nueces Strip, for hundreds of years before the American Paint Horse Association claims they were there

When the Spanish Conquistador's came north from Mexico, they were turned west by the Comanche Indians who were already mounted on these ferocious War Horses, hundreds of years before American history claims the Indians had horses The courageous, Comanche War Horse had a well established reputation, for attacking soldiers to defend his master, in the heat of battle

One history professor at the University Of Texas stated that before the invention of modern firearms & the Comanche's were at the zenith of their glory, Napoleon's army could not have defeated the Comanches. Because of their Super Horses. To this day, the best Paint Horses in the world still come from the Texas Nueces Strip

When Texas was an Independent Republic, the Texas Rangers rode Paint Race Horses & were the only people in the world who utilized revolvers. In time, the original ancient breed was reduced in quality by the strays, that would become known as the American Mustang

In 1965 the American Paint Quarter Horse Association & the American Paint Stock Horse Association merged to become the American Paint Horse Association This did salvage what was left of the colorful hunters that had once been known as The Pride of the Plains

Yellowhand Horses, are American Paint Horse Association horses

But, Yellowhand Horses have 100% Thoroughbred heritage

100% Courageous hunters, bred for Classic competition
