What breed of horse is epona on twilight princess

I do believe Epona does not have a specific breed. She has Palomino coloring, but she is very stocky and has horse feathers, which are Clydesdale traits. She very well could be a mix-breed, though.


Epona does very well have Clydesdale traits. The feathers (hairs covering her hooves) on her feet say she is probably a cross with a Clydesdale. Belgians (another draft breed) don't usually have feathers. She is very stocky. Her big hindquarters and shoulders make me think that she probably has some Quarter Horse in her. She is very fast like a Quarter Horse, too. So maybe a Clydesdale/Quarter Horse. They were obviously going for a draft, stocky horse when they were creating her. I bet they looked at stocky breeds and draft horses. Probably seeing the beauty of the feathers and strong muscles on the Clydesdale and the stockiness and speed in the Quarter Horse. (if that was what happened) :) I guess every hero needs a big horse, LoL.
