Monterufoli pony is an endangered equine breed native of Pisa province, in Tuscany.
Starting from 30’s up to 60’s the equine breed was well-appreciated for its ability in endurance, saddle and driving. Horse training for saddle and driving uses were performed in a single Monterufoli pony. Three more are now in proof.
The assessments showed: - Nearly equivalent aptitudes for the saddle and driving with similar scores. - equivalent scores for three gaits: walk, trot and gallop - good characteristics for character, temperament and submissiveness - good characteristics for yield and endurance
