Riassunto

Excerpt from American Turf Register and Sporting Magazine, Vol. 2: September, 1830, to August, 1831

The Barbary horse, though in all probability originally descended from an Arabian stock, is neither so handsome nor tall, but stronger, and carries a greater depth of carcass than the Arabian. He has a shorter back, a stronger loin, and' a fuller flank; is tractable, docile, and sure-footed; not very spirited, but when urged will discover good speed and vigour, and excellent wind; and when running he runs closer and strides better than the Arabian; and his colour is more usually white.

The Turkish horse is longer, taller, and handsomer than the Barbs; though he has, probably, in common With them, an origin from the Arabians. He possesses good speed, spirit, and unfailing Wind, and can undergo much labour and fatigue.
