Hard to say because palomino is really more of a color. but you can register any breed of horse with the Palomino horse association as long as it meets their color and conformational requirements. the horse must be light. medium, or dark gold with no more than 15% dark hair in their mane, tail, or forelock. The idea of registering a palomino as a type began in 1936 when Dick Halliday registered his horse El Rey De Los Reyes who was a Spanish horse. no one really knows the story behind the name of the palomino name but Queen Ysabella De Bourbon of Spain sent a Palomino Stallion and 5 brood mares to New Spain. now know as Mexico to improve the "new world". So people think it has some thing to do with that. I kind of depends on what you would want to do with it because as I said before, they are not really a breed so much as a type. you can get a Palomino horse from any breed. Quarter horse, Thoroughbred, Clydesdale. I hope that this helps! good luck on Search for your horse! ;)
