The American Quarter Horse established a bold reputation as the greatest cattle roundup and
trail driving horse in history and would never be forgotten by early American racing enthusiasts. To ensure the unique qualities of
this breed did not perish, a group of American Quarter Horse enthusiasts met in 1940 in Ft. Worth, Texas to establish what was to
become the largest equine breed registry in the world, the American Quarter Horse Association. Located in Amarillo, Texas, AQHA has
registered more than 4.4 million American Quarter Horses and serves more than 350,000 worldwide members.
Founded in 1966, the National Reining Horse Association (NRHA) is an organization dedicated
to the promotion of the reining horse. It serves as the standard setting body for the sport of Reining worldwide.
Formed in 1949, the National Reined Cow Horse Association, the governing body of
cow horse competition, is responsible for promoting the sport, insuring high standards of competition and educating members and the
public about the history and tradition of the reined cow horse to keep the vaquero tradition alive in today’s equine industry.
Rancho Pacifica Equine Center was created for those horse lovers and enthusiasts who want a first rate
