Are Quarter Horses able to make it as Show Jumpers?
From April Reeves, Horseman's U.com: Yes! There have been many quarter horses in show jumping, although they have been declining in numbers since warmbloods have been imported and used. A great Quarter Horse that I remember was a big palomino named 'Goldfinger', who did the jumpoff round at 6'1" at the Northwest International in '69. Unfortunately, the Quarter Horse has taken a different route in the breeding process, becoming either shorter and stronger for reining and cutting or infused with the Thoroughbred, becoming taller and loftier for hunter divisions. I currently have 2 students with Quarter Horses who are in the Junior Jumping divisions. Although the Quarter Horse may not be the first breed you think about for show jumping, there are still the odd ones who are quite successful at it in Open Divisions. A Quarter Horse, particularly an Appendix Quarter Horse (a Quarter Horse with Thoroughbred blood), can do well in beginner and intermediate jumping. However, due to the stockier muscling and shorter stature of most pure-blood Quarter Horses, they are generally not the best at expert jumps.
