THE HORSE 
129 
Figure 119. — A Standard Breed of Trotting Horse. 
Compare the various parts of this horse with the draft horse in Figure 118. 
veloped in France and England. There are three general 
types: namely, draft horses, which are the largest and 
heaviest, with short, strong limbs and thick necks, of which 
the Percheron, Belgian, and Clydesdale are common types; 
coach or carriage horses, which are graceful and plump but 
not so heavy as the draft 
horses; and roadsters or 
trotting horses, which are 
the lightest and slimmest 
of the horses. Roadsters 
have long legs, a thin 
neck, and are noted for 
their intelligence. Saddle 
horses belong in this third 
class (Figure 119 a fine 
specimen).
