Range Trotters are the result of crossbreeding Orlov Trotters, Finnhorses, Welsh Cobs (section C & D) and Hanoverians. Later crosses of Quarter Horses, Paint and Appaloosas to gain color and to give a boost to their hardiness.With a height average of 13-15 hands, they're a hardy breed with characteristics for various disciplines.

Created for use as work, carriage and leisure riding horses originally, they now serve as long-distance range horses, such as work with Park Rangers and mounted officers.

Willing and eager personalities, most are quickly trained to be bombproof and therefore trusted mounts in all lines of work; some are being seen in local show jumping competitions, others are notably used in therapeutic sessions for their calm temperaments. Harness races and endurance trials are common for the breed, as they are able to sustain an extended trot without tire. Cross-Country competitions see some of the taller Trotters, but due to their cob lineage this is still uncommon.

Despite the variety of competitions and work these horses are being seen in, they are still famously skilled as endurance racers. Many competitors have chosen Range Trotters due to their tireless work ethic, as well as the ease in which they can be trained. Many have become champions in endurance trials, and they have quickly become a sought after breed for their natural ability.

Turns out this Trotter has an eye for shiny trinkets...
The pirates have their hands full trying to keep them from escaping and breaking into the hold.
Which shiny object have they set their sights on?

Prompt: Areion was consumed with the need to grab this pendant from the hold, with the coin at it's center holding the image of his godly father he could not help but be drawn to it. It seemed as if it was meant for him to possess.

this beautiful bridle! it's pure silver, so the pirates have it for its value. However, they're planning to train their most docile captive to accept a rider to maximize their profits, and they need the bridle to be able to do it. Honor is attracted to its shine, but he also wants it so that he can save his friend.

Tiber hails from the Mediterranean, and true to his homeland's ancient roots, he's going straight for a bronze spearhead worthy of a warrior. Whether he'll be able to use it is a whole 'nother question.
