Spotted Draft Te Spotted Draft is the second, and more
recent, American draft breed. Te first Spot- ted Draft horse, Charlie, was bred in Minne- sota by Leonard Tostenson. Charlie was sired by a Saddlebred-type horse from New Mex- ico named Spotted Moroccan, out of one of Tostenson’s Percheron mares. Tostenson competed Charlie in pulling con-
tests for over 20 years. Charlie, together with another Spotted horse, Prince, broke the Wisconsin state record in 1976 for putting 3,100 pounds on the dynamometer. Tostenso’s respect for his Spotted Drafts – their pleasant natures, their work ethic, and their desire to please – grew to such an extent that in 1995, he and Gail Clark of New Mexico founded the North American Spot- ted Draft Horse Association. Te first Spotted Draft Horse they registered was Gail Clark’s Pecos Chief. Maryland is represented in that association by Wayne Cullen’s Cherry Glen Farm in Boyds. Te Maryland State Draft Horse Show and Pull at the Maryland State Fair will not host any classes specifically for Spotted Drafts, but the Howard County Fair will. As with the American Cream Draft, we encourage you to send your Spotted Draft photos to
editor@equiery.com for inclusion in future pieces about the breed.
Pecos Chief was the first Spotted Draft Horse registered with the newly founded organization in the 1970s.
