“Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.”

Cleveland Bay: Cleveland Bay horses are very special. Do you know why? Because they are the oldest breed of horses native to England!
Where do they come from?
These horses came from the Cleveland area of North Yorkshire in England. This is why they are called Cleveland Bays. But this is not the only reason for their name. What color are they? Can you guess? Do you remember what a Bay is?
Bay horses
Bay horses have a special coat color. Look at the pictures closely. What color do you think it is? Brown, dark red, dark brown or a mix of these colors? Ready? Drumroll please….The color is reddish brown!
Now look at the legs. They are darker than the rest of the body. So these beautiful horses are reddish brown with a black mane, legs and tail.
Even the tips of the ears are black! This coloring is called “black points.” This color is what makes the horse, and if it doesn’t have these color characteristics, it cannot be a Cleveland Bay!
