Horse racing came before horse shows.
When the first Europeans came.
This comes from horse racing. They used to not have racing gates, and the horses would of course, as they do now, get very excited. So the people there would say to the track helpers, "hold your horses" because the horses were excited and they didn't want them to get away.
The horses brought to Australia by the First Fleet, came from England.
My original question was: where did horses first came to America not why. The answer is: They came from Spain in the 1500's, brought in by the Spaniards, not by themselves.
I just came from a consignment shop where there was a Kentucky Derby painting by H. Hargrove.
Native Americans and Pioneers first captured them and used the horses to travel and carry supplies.
Horses were brought over from Europe when the colonists and settlers came over. They were used as a main mode of transportation and for battle.
Horses were used for many things like clothes,food,and the bones were used for arrows
i think that's where they came from at first
Yes, the spanish conquistadors brought them and they came before.
They didn't! The Morgan horse was first bred in the USA.
Horses were introduced to Australia by European settlers for transportation, agriculture, and exploration purposes. They were also used for recreational activities such as racing and hunting. Over time, horses became an important part of Australian culture and economy.
