The wild horses which can be found on South Hoof are Welsh ponies which have lived freely on the rocky peninsula for hundreds of years. The Welsh pony is a small, durable and robust horse breed which can be found in all kinds of coat colors except for pinto and patterns in the leopard complex group. Welsh ponies have a calm temperament which is appreciated by adults and children alike. In spite of it's size they are brave, active and actually pretty good at jumping. The Welsh pony is a very satisfying breed to work with, and there are few areas that it is not an outstanding horse to use.
It's said that the Winterwell Family was responsible for bringing the Welsh Pony to Jorvik towards the end of the 18th Century. At that time, South Hoof and the beach outside New Hillcrest where still connected, but after a massive explosion known as "The Great Thunder", the route to South Hoof was destroyed and the ponies living there where separated from the Winterwell Family. The ponies where soon forgotten, they then built their own life in and around the cold, harsh landscape of South Hoof Peninsula. Click for more in depth info for this breed.
***PLEASE NOTE*** Don't forget that a pony is not as fast as other horses in the game.
