Blazer
About The Breed:
The Blazer breed started in 1967. All Blazer horses trace back to one founding sire, Little Blaze. He was a combination of Quarter Horse, Thoroughbred, Morgan and Shetland. A man named Neil Hinck bred Little Blaze and then chose his foundation stock for the breed.
He handpicked 15 mares by conformation and disposition only, then kept a close herd for 50 years. ~Diane Robson
