	Trakehner (jump) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A trakehner (jump) is a jump found on the cross country course of eventing, and it consists of a rail over a ditch.
		Due to the build of the fence, the take-off spot for the horse was on the downside of the ditch, and the landing was on the upside.
		However, the old-style trakehner jump is not seen today, mainly because the landing was on an uphill grade, which was very punishing to the horses, even when the horse took-off well.

	Trakehner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Owing to its Thoroughbred ancestry, the Trakehner is of rectangular build, with a long sloping shoulder, good hindquarters, short cannons, and a medium-long, crested and well-set neck.
		The Trakehner is used as a "refiner" of other breeds, allowing an infusion of Thoroughbred and Arabian blood without the risks often involved in first generation outcrosses.
		While Trakehners compete in nearly all equestrian disciplines, they are particularly prized as Dressage mounts, due to their sensitivity, intelligence and way of going.

	The Trakehner in New Zealand ... The Trakehner Breeders Association of New Zealand
		The Trakehner Breeders Association of NZ was formed in 1989 when a contract was signed in Germany to facilitate New Zealand operating a daughter association.
		Trakehner stallions must have a minimum height of 15.3 but average 16.2hh, and must have a truly masculine, dramatic, and powerful appearance, while the mares, preferably between 15.1 and 16.1hh, should have a feminine, motherly expression.
		Trakehners should not be started under saddle until they are about 3 years old, for though the Trakehner grows quickly, it tends to mature more slowly that its full blooded cousins, and it carries so much body that it does not need the extra weight of the rider until it is fairly well grown.
