History
The Kinsky Horse was bred in the nineteenth century by members of the Kinsky family in the Kingdom of Bohemia, and was sometimes known as the Golden Horse of Bohemia.[4]: 459 [5]: 226 In the twentieth century it was largely absorbed into the Czech Warmblood. A separate stud-book for the breed was established in 2005.[4]: 459
Its conservation status was not listed by the FAO in 2007.[1]: 34 In 2018 the population reported to DAD-IS was about 600 head, and the conservation status in 2020 was reported as "at risk".[2]
Characteristics
The horses usually stand between 162 and 175 cm at the withers.[4]: 459 Many have a coat of a characteristic golden-yellow colour, but others may be bay, chestnut or occasionally black.[5]: 226
