SPORT HORSES FOR SALE
Sport horse is a term used to describe a type of horse, rather than any particular breed. The term generally refers to horses bred for the traditional Olympic equestrian sporting events of dressage, eventing, showjumping, and combined driving. The precise definition varies. Sport horses are bred for specific qualities in their conformation, movement, and temperament. Most sport horses have similarities in their conformation. These include a sloping shoulder, "turned-over" neck, and uphill build. Conformation has direct effects on the animal's movement and jumping ability. Due to the great deal of training needed to produce a successful sport horse, they are generally bred for trainability and willingness to work.
