Thoroughbreds are most commonly used for racing, but it’s a breed that also excels at show jumping, dressage, polo and hunting, making it a very popular breed of horse with almost 120,000 foals registered worldwide each year. They’re often also cross-bred – imparting their speed and agility. Thoroughbreds are a spirited breed, with an attractive, confident appearance, which produces elegant pencil portraits either in graphite, or using a coloured pencil to feature those rich bay or chestnut at their best.
