What breed is a Standardbred?
(Assuming this question contained a typo, it has been corrected from 'What is a stranded bred?' to 'What is a Standardbred?') Also known as the American Standardbred, this horse was originally developed in America from several different breeds including the Thoroughbred, the Hackney and the Morgan. It was bred specifically as a harness racing horse with 2 types, (the trotter and the pacer), however, the breed has also shown finesse in other events. Because of its athleticism, the Standardbred is commonly seen in hunter/jumper events as well as dressage. The name Standardbred comes from the 1800's because back then, the horse had to be able to trot a mile within the standard time of 2 minutes and 30 seconds in order to be registered as an American Standardbred. Today, they are able to trot even faster. The Standardbred closely resembles the Thoroughbred but is normally a little heavier and more muscled with slightly longer bodies than the Thoroughbred. The American Standardbred is not to be confused with the American Saddlebred, a different registered breed.

How do you get your ex racehorse standardbred to stop trotting so fast?
Possibly dont post as high One thing that Clinton Anderson does is just trot them until they learn to conserve their energy and trot slower. He actually uses this for a slow lope, but it works at the trot too. you could also do transitions. Trot a few strides (less than 5) then walk for a bit, then trot, then walk, then trot, then walk. This gets the horse so that he doesn't build up sped because he knows that he will have to go to the walk very soon. You could also try troting ina round pen. The smaller enclosure will kind of shut the horse down. Horses are more inclined to go fast when in an open area, and the opposite is true. You could also use poles. If you place them shorter than your horses normal stride, she will have to adjust himself to take shorter strides and therefore trot slower.
