ANDALUSIAN HORSES IN LOS ANGELES

One of the most beautiful and important horses in the world is the Spanish horse. Also known as the Andalusian breed, this animal possesses athletic ability and plenty of grace. La Feria del Caballo Espanol lets us see kings’ horses in action. The annual event occurs at the City of Industry equestrian, and the Concours culminates with the new champions of the breed.

La Feria del Caballo Espanol is the most crucial event in America for the selection of the finest Spanish horse. And coming from the land of flamenco and Pablo Picasso, this should not be a surprise.

This world-class event started in 2008 and has featured the Andalusian and Lusitano horses. It is sanctioned by the ANCCE, the Royal Purebred Spanish Association, and it is the most significant event outside Spain. The monks developed this horse in the 14th century. By the 15th century, the monastery in Jerez, Spain, had achieved an intelligent, strong, and agile animal. King Phillip II established the Andalusian horse as the horse of the royal stables. He became Europe’s Royal Horse through their grace and beauty.

Horse morphology is, in hippology, the external physical description of a horse or another equine. It includes a description of the general appearance of the animal and the study of its external parts. Breeders from Mexico, Canada, Spain, Guatemala, and other countries participate in selecting the best horses to keep the breed pure. Since falling in love with this noble breed of horses 25 years ago, Don Jesús Jiménez, from Rancho los Jiménez, has organize this unique horse fair. He has pursued sharing his passion with fellow breeders around the world. 

USPRE (United States Pura Raza Española) is pleased to officially announce the recipients of the Born in America Awards, which were presented during the Feria del Caballo Español. These awards honor the breeders whose unwavering passion and commitment to our breed result in the creation of remarkable PRE horses. We extend our sincere congratulations to all the well-deserving winners!
