There are now two types of Registration in the McCurdy breed, and they are as follows:

1) Foundation Registration: Foundation mares and stallions are those horses that meet all the historical characteristics of the old McCurdy Plantation horse, ie. Gait, color, temperament, versatility, etc. and have been performance registered and approved by the Registry Board. 

2) Pedigree Registration: A Pedigree Registered horse is the result of the cross of two McCurdy Foundation horses or the cross of a McCurdy Foundation horse and a McCurdy Pedigree horse or the cross of two McCurdy pedigree registered horses. 

Gaits

McCurdy Plantation Horses are naturally gaited. Their natural saddle gait is commonly referred to as "the McCurdy lick." It is a straight forward, lateral, four-beat, single-footing gait that is extremely smooth.

They also perform the flat walk and running walk, the natural rack, and an ambling stepping pace.

In all cases, it is a very smooth, comfortable gait that literally can be ridden all day without rider fatigue. The McCurdy is noted for giving a safe, secure, smooth ride in any terrain or condition.

Accepted Colors

Accepted colors are all solid colors, Black, Bay, Sorrel, Chestnut, Gray, and Classic Roans (blue, black, red).  No white above the knee or on the body.  Star, snip, blaze accepted on the face.  Legs can have a coronet, or a sock.   

If crossing a qualifying registered non-McCurdy horse with a registered McCurdy horse, the non-McCurdy Mare or Stallion must also meet the above color standards.

Three photos of  a horse submitted  for ALL registrations must accompany  the paper work.  Both sides and face. Standing on a flat surface.
