 A registry was created in 1989 to develop a Quarter Horse/Arabian crossbred horse. It was called the United Quarab Registry, and the Painted Quarab Index was added in the year 1991 to include the tobiano and overo patterns from the American Paint Horse breed. Only horses with Quarter Horse, Arabian, and Paint blood are accepted into the registry, and both parents must be registered with the respective registry for that breed. The Quarab's body resembles a stock horse type, having muscular forearms and gaskins with a well-rounded hip, or even sort of an Arabian type, exhibiting a long, arched neck, long barrel, and level croup. Their heads are refined and have large eyes, a wide forehead, and a slight-to-extreme dish in the face, depending on the ratio of Arabian to Quarter Horse blood. They can stand between 14 and 16 hands high. They are used in roping, reining, dressage, trail riding, driving, and even endurance.
