http://www.daylife.com/photo/06xveoy6ej8FQ Reuters Pictures 1 month ago Horses run at the Karacabey Pension Stud farm in the western Turkish town of Karacabey August 17, 2009. The Karacabey Pension Stud farm is the biggest stud farm in Turkey and one of the leading ones in Europe in terms of paddock size. The farm has 361 hectares of paddock area. It has more than 220 staff and its horse population rises as high as 1,200 between January and June each year due to births. Picture taken August 17, 2009
Other farms are known to breed TB and or Arabs, these are definately Thoroughbreds
This is the home site and it appears bothe TBs and Arabs are bred: http://www.tjk.org/ info: http://www.tjk.org/tjk_en/Content/Haralar_en.aspx?l= Karacabeys should have a more arabian look I think, since Arabs were bred with the native ponies and stock type horse. Any other farm I have seen breeds either TBs or Arabs.
They may be possibly trying to breed them back, which is possible considering they were originally bred from existing breeds that are still around. Presently there does not seem to be any left and hardly any pictures to speak of.
