The Tersk or Tersky is a Russian breed of light riding horse of Arab type. It was bred at the Tersk Stud in Stavropol Krai in the North Caucasus between about 1925 and 1940.[3]: 507 [2]: 300 

History

The Tersk Stud was established by Semyon Budyonny in 1921 with the aim of re-establishing the horse population of Russia, which was depleted after the events of the Russian Revolution of 1917.

Among the horses brought there in 1925 were two stallions and a few mares of the Ukrainian Strelets breed;[4]: 89  this breed, now extinct, was a part-bred Arab with some influence of Orlov Trotter, Don and Kabardin.[3]: 507  The two stallions, Tsenitel and Tsilindr, were used on cross-bred mares with Arab, Don, Kabardin and Strelets blood. To create the Tersk breed, the resulting mares were put to Arab stallions, among them Koheilan IV, Marosh, and Nasim.[2]: 300  The intent was to create a riding horse of Arab type, but larger and better adapted to extensive management in the taboon system.[3]: 507 [2]: 300  The breed was officially recognised in 1948.[5]

In 2007 the conservation status of the Tersk in Europe was listed by the FAO as "endangered".[1]: 139 

Characteristics

The Tersk is similar in conformation to the Arab. It has a light head with straight profile; the shoulders are sloped, the chest broad, the back straight, the croup rounded, and the legs slender but strong. The tail is set on high. The skin is fine, as is the hair of the coat, mane and tail.[6]: 258  The coat is often a silvery grey, but may also be bay or chestnut.[6]: 258 

Use

The Tersk is well suited to use in eventing, in cross-country riding, in dressage and in show-jumping.[6]: 258  It may be used for endurance riding, in which it excels; in one race over 310 km (190 mi), all participating Tersk horses finished the course without difficulty.[2]: 301  The horses are often used in circuses.[4]: 89 

Tersk stallions have been used for cross-breeding with other breeds such as the Lokai and the Deliboz in the hope of improving them.[2]: 301
