Origins and attitudes
The maremmano horse has
origins rooted in the Tuscan Maremma-Lazio
remote since the times of ancient Etruscans.
From antiquity till '800 they has maintained
the same initials typical forms: strong
horse, squat and shady.
After 1860, subsequently to Italy has
started to cross with other breeds of horses
more gentle and slender.
Through the intersection
with the English thoroughbred which has led
to a "new generation", in Versilia,
(Tuscany) in San Rossore factory born in
1902 the stallion Fauno.
The English thoroughbred refine soon rustic
and squat figure of the old Maremma and
increases both the nevrilitą that stature.
It therefore comes to a race horse robust,
generous and resistant to fatigue in any
climatic condition and suitable as a horse
saddle.
For their docility these horses are now
appreciated as companions and hiking trails
both by children from adults.
The great talents of the
horse maremmano jumper as was demonstrated
by Olympic champions Graziano Mancinelli
Ursus on the Lasco and Raimondo D'Inzeo on
Daily. Stefano Meattini on Rondinella was
world champion speed.
But the classic Italian pressapochismo,
ignorance and stupid esterofilia not have an
adequate selection as horse sports until the
nineties.
Recently, much has been understood and
widely reassessed the Maremmano horse.
