The Narragansett Pacer was the first horse breed developed in the United States, but is now extinct. It was developed in the United States during the 18th century and associated closely with the state of Rhode Island, and it had become extinct by the late 19th century. The Pacer was developed from a mix of English and Spanish breeds, although the exact cross is unknown, and they were known to and owned by many famous personages of the day, including George Washington. Sales to the Caribbean and cross-breeding diminished the breed to the point of extinction, and the last known Pacer died around 1880.

  • The Narragansett Pacer was the first horse breed developed in the United States, but is now extinct. It was developed in the United States during the 18th century and associated closely with the state of Rhode Island, and it had become extinct by the late 19th century. The Pacer was developed from a mix of English and Spanish breeds, although the exact cross is unknown, and they were known to and owned by many famous personages of the day, including George Washington. Sales to the Caribbean and cross-breeding diminished the breed to the point of extinction, and the last known Pacer died around 1880. The Narragansett was possibly an ambling horse, rather than a true pacing breed. It was known as a sure-footed, dependable breed, although not flashy or always good-looking. Pacers were used for racing and general riding. They were frequently crossed with other breeds, and provided the foundation for several other American breeds, including the American Saddlebred, Standardbred and Tennessee Walking Horse. (en)
  • Le Narragansett Pacer est une race de chevaux éteinte depuis la fin du XIXe siècle. C'était la première race de cheval développée aux États-Unis au XVIIIe siècle, et associée à l’État fédéré de Rhode Island. Elle était issue de croisements entre races anglaise et espagnole, bien que le croisement exact ne soit pas déterminé. Ce cheval était monté par de nombreuses personnalités, comme George Washington, et beaucoup exporté vers les Caraïbes. Avec les nombreux croisements avec d’autres races, cette forte exportation est l’une des causes de disparition de ce cheval, dont le dernier représentant connu a disparu en 1880 Il s'agissait probablement d'un cheval ambleur. Il était souvent utilisé lors de courses hippiques. Il a été souvent croisé avec d'autres races, engendrant plusieurs autres races comme le cheval de selle et le trotteur américains ou encore le Tennessee Walker. (fr)

  • Narragansett pacer är en numera utdöd hästras som existerade i USA under 1600-1700-talet. Den användes inom plantagerna, speciellt i området runt Rhode Island och hade en extra gångart, en skön och bekväm passgång. Narragansett Pacer är även den ras som anses vara föregångare till många av de amerikanska så kallade "gaited" raser med passgång som extra gångart exempelvis Rocky Mountain Horse, Amerikansk travare och American saddlebred.
