The American Saddlebred was started in Kentucky in 1832 and was known as the Kentucky Saddler. It was used to carry plantation owners around the fields and over long distances in comfort. Saddlebreds are either three or five gaited. It is still shown harness and can be used as a pleasure and trail horse. Despite its versatility, the American Saddlebred Association still describes it as "America’s most misunderstood breeds" because of the artificial way in which it is produced and it’s image of a cropped, high set tail, overlong hooves and the use of somewhat dubious training aids. - American Saddlebred (gaitedhorse.com)

The American Saddle Horse gained fame as a breed during the Civil War, 1861-1865. Saddlebreds served as the mounts of many famous generals; Lee on Traveller, Grant on Cincinnati, Sherman rode Lexington, and Stonewall Jackson's mount was Little Sorrell. The three aforementioned horses were American type with close Thoroughbred crosses, and the latter was of pacing stock.

My Major Domo American Saddlebreds have been successful in most equine disciplines from cow horses to jumpers, dressage to carriage horses. If conditioned and trained properly, Saddlebreds are capable of almost any task they are asked to perform.....and they do it with style.

Some stallions are great show horses; some are great sires of sires and some are great sires of dams. But Wing Commander was all of these rolled up into one incredible chestnut package. He not only blew everyone away in the ring, he also revolutionized the Saddlebred breed! Ch Wing Commander
