Being known as the world’s fastest athletes, very strong horses with excellent stamina are chosen to race from the Quarter Horse breed. They have been reared as racing horses since the mid 1800’s and have shown thoroughbred bloodlines that were improved with Arabian, Morgan and Standard bred bloodlines for a faster, more desirable Quarter Horse Breed. The Quarter Mile race is a simple and quick race for the Quarter Horse, clocking in at an average of 17 seconds per race. With added refining, the horses can shave off time from their races, making them the fastest horses in racing. Their lack of endurance makes them unable to sprint fast past a quarter mile by most horses and is incredibly rare to get one which can last for up to a half mile.
In the rodeo, American Quarter Horses are incredibly agile to respond to their handlers. They perform well, even with loud disruptions from the crowds that gather at such events. Many Quarter Horses are used in rodeo to perform livestock cutting, reigning and other specialized cowboy skills in the round up style events commonly held by rodeos and competitions. This is possible because of the horse’s extensive use as a ranch horse by crossing wild mustangs and other domesticated species used by the Comanche, Shoshoni and Nez Perce Native American tribes. This gave the Quarter horse a natural “Cow Sense” that made them more than suitable to work with and around cattle.

The light is green for the Kentucky Horse Breeders Incentive Fund (KYBIF), an exciting new way for Quarter Horse breeders to ride out the economic challenges ahead. Hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash awards are being distributed to Quarter Horses in showing and racing. This is expected to give Kentucky-bred Quarter Horses many advantages to help lift up the entire horse breeding industry.
This program is not limited to Quarter Horses who live in Kentucky or participate in show or racing events in Kentucky. The horses only have to be conceived or foaled in Kentucky. All AQHA-sanctioned events are open for the program. An owner of a horse in this program can compete in events all over the country and earn points towards their year-end awards. With more lucrative programs, people have more incentive to buy a horse and compete.
If you’re searching for a KYBIF Stallion, then check out the new KYBIF Only website that caters only to Kentucky horses.

The American Quarter Horse are known as the World’s Fastest Athletes. They have some outstanding distinguishing features such as great sprinting speeds over short distances, strong well-defined muscular bodies with a broad chest and rounded powerful hindquarters. This horse was designed for performance and race. They are sure to give everyone a run for their money in competitive racing as well as being a prized breed at many showpen events. They are also the world’s most registered horse breeds with over 3 million American Quarter Horses entered into the breed registry.
In the 1800’s, when the Westward expansion of the United States was underway, many people decided to use the already introduced and feral breeds that existed to cross breed with the Colonial Quarter Mile horse. The result was a quick and hard working cow horse that became extremely popular with ranchers throughout settlements. With time, these horses were refined for their best characteristics and used into cattle steering and eventually more advanced equestrian activities throughout history. Ranch horses such as these were then used in higher society as well as races, taking advantages of its natural and distinct talents on the racetracks.
The Quarter Horse is bred today to preserve a pedigree of excellent lineage. Pedigree bred horses can be obtained from various sources and can have their lineage traced back at least 4 generations. It is generally easy to obtain a pedigreed Quarter horse, as it is a very widely bred horse worldwide. The breed is used extensively in show, races, reigning, cutting livestock sport as well as a frequent rodeo competitor. Many people still own them for ranching as well as to keep them as family horses to enjoy for many years. Developments in breeding techniques allow for more of these beautiful horses to actively be bred today. More people want to breed this horse because of its outstanding track record for all of its eligible event opportunities as well as its ability to perform outstandingly well as a ranch horse.
