A heavier draft type horse was bred at Jinka, best known for service as Artillery horses, with outstanding presence, power and conformation. These horses were rescued in the late 1980s from Alice Springs saleyards along with the Garden and Cordillo horses otherwise destined for Peterborough Meatworks in SA.
