The breeding of the Tori horse was developed between 1890 and 1950 in the Tori district of Pärnu. This breed was founded by the stallion Hetman. He came to the kennel as Norfolk Roadster Junction (b. 1886) from Poland. Then the first desired results were achieved with a strong, large body and strong legs, but to an open and lively horse – warm-blooded horses, which also met the farmers as well as the horse friend („Tori Horse“) breeding I „, p. 45). Many of Hetman’s descendants have been honored at international exhibitions. In addition, many of his descendants were on the farms. Hetman’s skeleton is preserved and can be seen in the Estonian Agricultural Museum in Ülenurme.
