Has a quarter horse ever been in Kentucky Derby?
No solid numbers tell the exact population. However, we can get a rough estimate by looking at the general horse population of Kentucky and the percentage of horses in the US that are quarter horses. According to a 2005 equine census, Kentucky was home to 320,173 horses. A 1998 poll (apologies for not being able to find anything more recent) found quarter horses make up 39.5% of the US horse population. therefore our rough estimate for number of quarter horses in KY are 320173 * .395 = 126,468.
Is an American paint horse a quarter horse?
Yes and no. The Paint horse was started as a breed due to Quarter horse breeders tossing out or killing perfectly good horses just because they had 'too much' white on them, which associated the horses with Native American tribes. To prove the horses were valuable the registry was started and any Quarter horse with too much white was allowed to be registered. they also then accepted Thoroughbreds into the registry after a period of time. Nowadays there are distinct bloodlines within the Paint and many of them are actually still purebred Quarter horses. The term paint refers to a horse with a broken coat color (there is a minimum amount of white over pink skin to be classified) that is also within strict bloodline requirements. To be registered with the APHA the parents must be registered with APHA, AQHA or the Jockey Club (meaning a thoroughbred). At least one parent must be APHA registered. Therefore, many paints are of strong quarter horse lineage, some horses are cross registered between the quarter horse and paint horse registries. When a horse is not within these breed requirements, yet still retains the colorful coat pattern they are simply called a pinto. Pinto refers to the coat color whereas paint is a breed.
Is HYPP common in American quarter horses?
HYPP traces back to a single point mutation associated with the stallion Impressive. Since this stallion was quite popular in his day there are many individuals that trace back to him. Multiple lines of Impressive in a pedigree increase the risk of a horse being a carrier N/H or homozygous H/H. The AQHA has taken significant steps toward the elimination of this defect and all foals with Impressive breeding (who don't have N/N parents)must be tested for the defect. Any foals produced who are N/H or H/H cannot be registered unless they are spayed or gelded. While I found no specific information on the frequency of the allele in the quarter horse population, the steps being taken by the AQHA will be able to eliminate the defect from the gene pool in a very short period of time. Answer 2: To add to the very good answer above , some slightly older data states that roughly 4% of the Quarter Horse population has HYPP. Another source says that it comes out to roughly 1 in 50 horses having the defect.

What are paint horses personalities like?
To know what the personality is likely to be like in a paint horse, you need to first look at the horses breeding. Paint horses are this way due to colour genetics playing a part. This is nothing to do with the breed of the horse. Any breed of horse can be a paint if bred with the right colour genetics. Personality is more based on horse breed, for example Quarter Horses are known for their laid bay personalities where Thoroughbreds can be more highly strung...but either can be a paint horse in colour. Typically Quarter Horses and some pony breeds are found with paint colouring.
