The Anglo-Kabarda or Anglo-Kabardin (also known as the Anglo-Kabardinskaya porodnaya gruppa) is a breed of horse that is a cross between the Kabarda and the Thoroughbred.
They have legs which are long and strong with well-developed joints giving them the speed of the Thoroughbred and the resistance of the Kabarda.
[1] This breed is generally hardy, although due to the Thoroughbred blood, they may not necessarily be easy keepers and may require some supplemental nutrition.
[2] The cross was developed beginning in the 1920s and 1930s to produce a horse that was larger and faster than the native Kabarda, but adapted to the climate of the northern Caucasus region of Russia and able to maneuver in mountainous terrain.
This breed has been used as saddle horses both locally in the Caucasus Mountains and to compete in international Olympic events.
