Cutting horses share a heritage with all that is part of the American West. They also share the heritage of the Arabian horse. Arabian blood was an essential element in developing the indispensable "cow horse".
Arabian horses are graced with natural ability and intelligence, prime requisites for a good cutting horse. Gathering, sorting and separating cattle requires a quick mind and body, as well as the Arabian hallmarks of stamina and soundness.
The International Arabian Cutting Horse Association, IACHA, now The Arabian Cutting Horse Association, TACHA was recognized by the International Arabian Horse Association, IAHA, now Arabian Horse Association, AHA in 1960.
This purpose of The Arabian Cutting Horse Association, Inc. is to encourage the development of the Arabian Horse through cutting.
