The Cleveland Bay is a Solid big boned breed
out of Great Britain
The Cleveland Bay originates from Britain, in the Cleveland
area of Northern Yorkshire and is the oldest of the indigenous breed of English
horses. Shaped by a harsh environment a horse of durability, longevity and quiet
disposition resulted. Early on in the 17th & 18th centuries these characteristics
developed a versatile breed used as hunt horse, coach horse and as an agricultural
worker. More recently the Cleveland Bay has successfully been bred to thoroughbred
types to produce outstanding performance horses in dressage, driving and jumping.
It is through these quality animals that breed recognition is becoming known.
With less than 500 world wide, the Cleveland Bay is listed as an endangered
breed. CHARACTERISTICS: Great substance, clean legged with excellent feet, flat
cannon bones. Immensely powerful quarters contribute to unmatchable jumping
ability and dressage aptitude. Uniform body type and strong shoulders allow
this breed to move with excellence and grace.
