The breed was named after a distance it was best at. It was developed in the southwestern part of the United States: in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, eastern Colorado, Kansas, Virginia and the Carolinas. The breed is famous for its stocky build, well-muscled body, and graceful appearance. There are two types within the breed. Some breeders prefer to keep speed as a primary requisite of the breed and specialize in equines for racing; others breed for ranch work and never participate in shows for purebreds.
