The KWPN Riding Horse originated
from the Netherlands. It is, technically, a half-bred, with Anglo-Norman
descendants. It does have an established Herdbook, which is located in the
Netherlands at this time. They can be any solid color, and are used for sport
and hobbies, as riding horses. They are very easy to handle, have great pulling
power, are very adaptable in dressage and jumping, although they are not as fast
as a lot of other horses. Because there are an estimated 14,000 of these horses
remaining on earth, the breed has not yet reached endangered status, and no
efforts are being made to conserve the breed.
