OK here goes nothing, when I first joined HP I adored these horses, bred and trained the only active ones until I quit and noticed they were removed. 


 


 


 


Breed History
During the 16th century, the elegant Frederiksborg saddle horses of Denmark were highly-valued as superior military chargers. This breed was one of the most sought after in Europe. King Frederik II, a savvy horse breeder, developed the Frederiksborg stud based on Spanish Andalusians and Neapolitan stock. The Andalusians contributed the graceful elegance, flashy action and commanding authority to the Frederiksborg.

They were in great demand for use in the Haute Ecole work popular in the courts of Europe, as well as suitable officer's mount for cavalry use, at the military parade grounds, in court ceremonies and as carriage horses.

The qualities indigenous to the Frederiksborg were extensively utilized throughout Europe to develop and improve many other breeds, including the Lipizzaner, the Jutland and the Orlov Trotter. As interest grew in this breed because of its steadfast disposition, it evolved into an all around performance horse. The Frederiksborg has been proven in the dressage arena, carriage pull, endurance competition and hunter-jumper. This breed enriches the riding experience because of its even temperament, strong back and legs.
