(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Because registration is based solely on coat color, horses from many breeds can qualify, though in some breeds, such as the Thoroughbred, the golden color does not occur. Some breeds that exhibit the color are the American Saddlebred, Tennessee Walking Horse, Quarter Horse, and Hafflinger Pony.
Due to their unusual color, Palominos stand out in a show ring, and are much sought after as parade horses.
