Strong and elegant breed of spanish horse related to lusitano used for classical dressage?

The original Spanish Horse, the PRE - Pura Raza Española - originates in Spain. It is a foundation horse in many breeds across Europe and the rest of the world, and, has had an influence on some horses in America. There are two recognised foundation breeds that come from the Iberian Peninsula - the PRE and the PSL,( Pura Sangue Lusitano,) from Portugal. The Andalusian is not a breed - it is a 'type' - and a term applied generally by people when referring to horses from the Iberian Peninsula. America has established an Andalusian registry that includes part bred PREs. Also coming from the Spanish ancestry are Aztecas, Spanish Norman horses and the mustangs, as well as genetically researched herds such as the Shackleford Banks horses, the oldest documented horse population in North America who are shown to have descended directly from the spanish horses. Separate to the PRE are Spanish Arabs. There are international registries for Part Bred Spanish horses , such as the Hispano Arab - PRE crossed with Arab. PTRVIOUS ANSWER FROM BADGIRL The most world renown of the Spanish breeds is the Andalusian; it is a very old breed, so old that it's lineage dates back before the voyage of Columbus. The Andalusian contributed to the Spanish Mustangs we know in the U.S. today.

Other historic Spanish Breeds are the Peruvian Horse, Paso Fino and the Colonial Spanish Horse.
