Also called Hai-La-Erh, Hailar, Sanpeitze and Sanho, the Sanhe Horse comes from eastern Inner Mongolia at a grassland basin formed by three rivers (Sanhe means ‘three rivers’) in China.

Horses have been in this area for at least the last thousand years and used as war mounts over the centuries. At the turn of the 20th century Zabaikal<\/a> animals from Russia were brought to the area and about a decade later Orlov<\/a> and Bechuk animals came with Russian settlers. These three types lent genetics and by mid century a stud farm was established with Anglo-Arab<\/a>, Arabian<\/a>, Thoroughbred<\/a> and American Trotter animals. <\/p>\n In the mid 20th century the Ministry of Agriculture assessed crossbred horses of the area and created stud farms to develop a new breed called the Sanhe. They are thought to be among the finest of the breeds developed in China, partially because the area is well suited to raising equines.<\/p>\n Average height 14.3 – 15 hands<\/p>\n Neck is slightly heavy Generally chestnut<\/a> or bay<\/a><\/p>\n Riding horse Intro Also called Hai-La-Erh, Hailar, Sanpeitze and Sanho, the Sanhe Horse comes from eastern Inner Mongolia at a grassland basin formed by three rivers (Sanhe means ‘three rivers’) in China.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10411,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[5,11],"class_list":["post-1061","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-china","tag-bay","tag-chestnut"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1061","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1061"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1061\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10412,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1061\/revisions\/10412"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10411"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1061"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1061"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1061"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Features<\/h3>\n
