The Kurd
Like the Asil, in its own habitat, the Kurd is known by different names, depicting differences in breeding and outward appearance, i e., Jaff, Afshar, Sanjabi, etc.. The Jaff, the model of the horse in Persian miniatures, in all probability has Asil blood. In other Kurdish strains, altogether a strong compact horse, there are traces of possible descendance from the Nisaean War Horse, mentioned by Greek historians. Excellent for long distances and mountanous areas, The Kurd also has the ability to carry heavy weight.
