The Quarter Horse In The UK – Quarter Horses in the UK first started to appear in the early 70′s, at that time there were only a handful, however, over the years, the popularity of the breed, both pure bred and part bred has increased. The Quarter horse is an extremely versatile horse, with many of them in the early days in the UK competing in traditional “English” events such as racing, eventing, hunter trails, hunting, polo, affiliated show jumping, in fact in the early 70′s a full bred Quarter Horse was part of the Irish Three Day event team!
