As with dog breeding, horses have been bred in order to develop particular, specialized qualities and abilities; for example, Thoroughbreds were developed for the speed required in racing. Horses have been carefully bred so that they can be ridden, usually with a saddle. They can also be harnessed to pull objects like carriages or plows.
