The registered Blazer is well known for it's low maintenance costs (i.e. low feed and vet bills) Over the lifetime of a horse, this could result in significant savings of time and money. Adhering to natures limit on the horse of 13 to 15 hands and 1,000 pounds makes this possible. Noted vertebrae paleontologist and author Dr. Deb Bennett states "a horse over 15 hands did not exsist until about 500 years ago".*

Blazer Horses excel at ranch work, roping, cutting, jumping, speed eventing, endurance events, mountain and or trail riding, pleasure riding, pulling and other equine tasks. They can and will do just about anything they are trained to do.

A gentle and willing disposition is the hallmark of the Blazer Horse. The ideal Blazer will be from 13 hands two inches to 14 hands two inches weighing 800 to 1,000 lbs. The horse should be well muscled and well balanced.

The registered Blazer Horse has been bred to exacting specifications of muscle placement, length of back, length of cannon bone and other technical characteristics which maximize the usefulness of the horse. The qualifications for registration are but are not limited to:
