Paso Fino Breeds Equestrian
On his second voyage from Spain in the 1500's, Columbus brought a select group of mares and stallions from the provinces of Andalusia and Cordela, and settled them at Santa Domingo. These horses were a mixture of Barb, Andalusian and Spanish Jennet. The Spanish Jennet not only possessed an extremely comfortable saddle gait, but also was able to pass the gait on to its offspring. As Spanish settlers came to the New World, they brought more Spanish horses. The result of the blending of these horses was to become known as the Paso Fino breed - the horse with the incredibly smooth gait. They became the foundation stock for remount stations of the Conquistadors. from the Paso Fino Breed Association - History of the Paso Fino - wp 9/2000
