How this list was compiled

A list of 113 horse team names written by Wheel of Teams on 2026-10-03 and filed in five groups: riding team and barn names, horse puns, names for a pair or team of horses, youth riding club and horse quiz teams, and trail ride, drill team and gymkhana names. The names are our own suggestions; none names a breed registry, a show circuit, a youth organization, a racehorse, a race or a horse from a film or a book, and any match with a real team is a coincidence. The riding and driving terms the names lean on were looked up on 2026-10-03 in English Wikipedia, text under CC BY-SA 4.0: Glossary of equestrian terms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_equestrian_terms), Equestrianism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equestrianism), Gymkhana (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gymkhana_(equestrian)), Driving (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Driving_(horse)), Horse harness (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_harness), Equine coat color (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equine_coat_color), Horse markings (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_markings), Horse grooming (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_grooming), Equine nutrition (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equine_nutrition), Show jumping (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Show_jumping) and Drill team (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_team).
