The Marwari or Malani is a rare breed of horse from the Marwar (or Jodhpur) region of Rajasthan, in north-west India. It is closely related to the Kathiawari breed of the Kathiawar peninsula of Gujarat, with which it shares an unusual inward-curving shape of the ears. It is found in all equine colors, including piebald and skewbald. It is a hardy riding horse; it may exhibit a natural ambling gait.
The Marwari is on the most beautiful horse breedlist for a couple of reasons. Marwari horses have slender legs and bodies. They can have a black, black and white, Dark Brown, bay or palomino coat. One of their most charming features makes these horses even more attractive. A marwari horse has the traditional pointed ears, but their ears curve inward at the top. So, you may even see the tips of a Marwari horse's ears touch above its head. Now that's a rare quality in even the prettiest horses!!
The Marwari horse is spirited, brave, and loyal. They have thin skin that allows them to easily bear thirst and extreme heat. They are sturdy and hardy, able to survive on small rations in the desert envirenment, and physically well adapted to extracting their feet from the deep sand efficiently.
The withers of Marwari horses are well defined and the Marwari size is extensively documented by the Marwari Horse Society.
The precious Indian horses are approximately 14.9 hands (151.8 cm) high at the withers. (1) The female Marwari horse’s height is generally higher than that of Marwari males.
Females of this breed are taller, with an average height of 16.8 hands (170,48 cm) versus 16.5 hands (168.31cm) for male Marwari Horses. The neck of Marwari Horses is carried high.
Their height can be considered average to tall when one compares it with that of other light horse breeds.
