Horse breed popularity, like many other things fluctuates, and fads start and end, sometimes very quickly. There are a few breeds that are tried and true, and can be counted on to help build a successful stable. Others are fun, unusual, and may be more of a risk, but become popular nonetheless. Here’s a look at some of the most popular horse breeds in Ponybox stables.
Thoroughbred
Of course, the most plentiful breed of horses on Ponybox is the Thoroughbred. There are approximately 4,000 active horses and almost 60,000 retired TBs. Top breeders include Pepper Tree Thoroughbreds, Bucki Int Elite TBs and Devito International TBs. Thoroughbreds are amongst the high jumpers with horses like RSS ShotInTheDark, ! Ophelia and ! Risky In Black jumping 100” or higher.
Quarter Horses
American Quarter Horses are the world’s most popular breed, and they're pretty popular on Ponybox too. There are almost 700 active Quarter Horses and almost 15,000 retired. QHs are jumping in the mid-90 inch range and lower, so they are not high jumping champs. And, they tend to stay out of the top 100 in rank, although they do make a solid showing in the top 500 rankings. Top high jumping QH is ! Zemsta, who has a highest jump of 96”.
Standardbreds
Better known for their speed and prowess in harness, Standardbreds are nevertheless a popular breed on Ponybox. There are just over 100 Standardbreds active right now with a retired population of almost 3,000. The best Standardbred jumpers are clearing 90”, and several are in the top 20 horses.

Welsh Ponies and Cobs
