Episode 01: All About Thoroughbreds

Hello and welcome to Flip N Tails: a tiny podcast for BIG horse lovers! I’m a horse girl who loves to ride and each week I’ll share about what I learn and love about horses. Today’s episode is all about Thoroughbreds.

Okay guys, here’s why I love Thoroughbreds.

I have a toy at home and its name is ThunderJam and I just really like it. But also I like them for their muscular activities and things that they do and also their color. They’re really pretty in that way.

What are they? Are they a horse or a pony?

They are definitely a horse. They are one of the tallest horses. Not draft horses. Horses that I have seen. And most of the time they are reddish copper. They have black hooves in the front, and a mixture between white and black in the back. Lots of times they have white markings in the front. And they have short hair.

What makes them so cool?

Well, what makes them so cool is they’re very good at almost everything. They can be a dressage horse, they can be a jumping horse, they can be a Grand Prix horse, they can be a cross country horse, they can be a racing horse. They can be almost anything.

What makes them different from any other horses is that they have different things. Because most horses are known for the things that they can do like one thing or two things, but the thoroughbred knows how to do so many things.

And a famous thoroughbred is named Secretariat. You probably know this name because of the movie or because you’re a horse lover. It’s a copper horse with short hair and it was a race horse.

So that’s it! Now you know a tiny bit more about this special horse. Join us next time and subscribe for another episode of Flip N Tails: a tiny podcast for BIG horse lovers!
