Trakehner is a light warmblood breed of horse developed at the East Prussian state stud farm in the town of Trakehnen from which the breed takes its name. The state stud was established in 1731 and operated until 1944, when the fighting of World War II led to the annexing of East Prussia by Russia, the town containing the stud renamed as Yasnaya Polyana; the Trakehner stands between 15.2 and 17 hands. They can be any color, with bay, gray and black being the most common, though the breed includes few roan and tobiano pinto horses, it is considered to be the lightest and most refined of the warmbloods, due to its closed stud book which allows entry of only Trakehner, as well as few selected Thoroughbred, Anglo-Arabian and Arabian bloodlines. Owing to its Thoroughbred ancestry, the Trakehner is of rectangular build, with a long sloping shoulder, good hindquarters, short cannons, a medium-long and well-set neck; the head is finely chiseled, narrow at the muzzle, with a broad forehead. It is known for its "floating trot" - full of suspension.

The Trakehner possesses powerful hindquarters. Trakehners are athletic and trainable, with good endurance, while some are more spirited than horses of other warmblood breeds. Trakehners breed true to type, due to the purity of the bloodlines, making it valuable for upgrading other warmbloods. Old Prussians and other Baltic people such as the Lithuanians were noted for their hardy horses and cavalry during the early Middle Ages. During their conquest of Old Prussians in the 13th Century Prussian crusade, the conquering Teutonic Knights named the Old Prussian horse a Schwaikenpferd, a small primitive horse. Beginning in the 14th century, knights used it to breed their military horses, descendants of the Schwaikenpferd were used by Masovian and Ostsiedlung farmers for light utility work. During the 16th and 17th centuries, the people of Ducal Prussia and Royal Prussia used a wide variety of horses from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Crimean Tatars, Ottoman Turkey, Wallachia and Transylvania, Holy Roman Empire for their cavalry and stud horses, crossed on local animals.

In 1732 King Frederick William I of Prussia used these horses and other imports to establish the Trakehnen Stud at the East Prussian town Trakehnen. Soldiers cleared the forest at the River Pissa between Gumbinnen. In 1739 the king gave it to crown prince Frederick II of Prussia, who sold stallions to make money. After his death in 1786 it became state property, named Königlich Preußisches Hauptgestüt Trakehnen. Between 1817 and 1837 the stud added Arabian and Hanoverian horse blood to their stock. One influential Thoroughbred was Perfectionist, by Persimmon, who won The Derby and the St Leger in 1896, he was to be the sire of the great Trakehner stallion Tempelhüter, most modern Trakehners can be traced to these two stallions. The Arabian blood was added to offset possible flaws of the Thoroughbred. East Prussian farmers were encouraged to bring their mares, by known for their hardiness and quality, to Trakehnen's stallions; this enabled the rapid transformation of the breed into much sought-after army remounts: sure-footed and athletic.

By 1918 60,000 mares per year were bred to East Prussian stallions. In 1919 the Treaty of Versailles limited Germany's army to 100,000 troops and so the breed's focus was again turned to producing horses suitable to farm duties. For this purpose, sires of heavier conformation were used, the most successful being Ararad, Hyperion and Tempelhüter; these stallions, while refined, possessed much bone. Their influence is still seen on the modern Trakehner, it was during the 1920s and 1930s that the breed was recognized for its performance abilities in competitive disciplines. Trakehners won gold and silver medals in two Olympics, including six Gold medals in Berlin in 1936, won Czechoslovakia's notoriously challenging Velká pardubická steeplechase nine times. In the 1930s there were 18,000 registered mares. In the 1930s and early 1940s Hauptvorwerk Trakehnen and its 15 Vorwerke covered 6,033 hectares, of which 3,845 hectares were fields, 2,427 hectares meadows, 175 hectares forest, 73 hectares garden and 351 hectares other.

Horses such as the Trakehner were used in World War II which, at the end, nearly destroyed the breed as Soviet troops advanced from the East, causing flight and expulsion of Germans during and after WWII. The main Stud and local residents were forces to evacuate between 20 January 1945 and March 1945, their journey West, known as Der Treck, sent the horses on a dangerous journey in frigid conditions across the frozen Vistula lagoon without proper rations or shelter. It is considered one of the toughest tests. Refugee convoys were bombed while on the ice by the Soviet airforce, so only a small number of horses made it to safety. 700 surviving horses were accounted for. The horses left behind in East Prussia became important in the breeding of Russian breeds such as the Kirov as well as the Polish Mazury and Pozan, which developed into the Wielkopolski. After the war, the breed, which once numbered tens of thousands was reduced to 600 broodmares and 50 stallions in West Germany; the last original Trakehner was Keith, born there in 1941, who died in November 1976 in Gilten shortly before his 35th birthday.

Annie Barnes was a British-Italian socialist and suffragist. Barnes was born in Stepney in about 1887, she was born Annie Cappuccio and her father had a confectionery and vegetable shop. In her autobiography Tough Annie she did not mention her Italian roots, but recalled her mother helping their poor neighbours, employing widows or others to help in the house: "Mother always believed in treating everyone the same, as equals.. That's how I was brought up." Barnes saw the crowd of suffragette protestors in July 1909, outside Edinburgh Castle Hall in Limehouse, including Mary Leigh, Mabel Capper, Jennie Baines trying to enter the Lloyd George event. She said it was a "real to-do" including police falling head first off a horse into water trough to the crowd's amusement and a woman in a wheelchair May Billinghurst, taken by van off to the police staton. Barnes and her mother witnessed four suffragette speakers talking against worker exploitation being given verbal abuse by men in the listening crowd, telling them to'wash their dirty kids.

You women are inferior to men anyway". And Barnes admired the speaker's retort "how can an inferior give birth to a superior" and was drawn to join the movement. Sylvia Pankhurst persuaded her to join the East London Federation of Suffragettes in 1913. On 8 April 1913, she went with Gertrude Shaw and Ethel Spark to the top of The Monument throwing'Votes for Women' leaflets down; the Times and Daily Mirror the next day printed pictures of a large crowd who gathered to watch, including men from Billingsgate fish market nearby. Barnes convinced the waiting police that she could not have climbed the 311 steps inside and had just gone up a little returned. Shaw and Spark meantime hung a purple and green flag and a black banner "Death or Victory" from the top and were arrested and released. Barnes was an enthusiastic supporter of women's suffrage but she avoided getting involved in any protest that might lead to a custodial sentence. Barnes enjoyed the many suffrage meetings and she found it difficult to refuse Pankhurst's leadership.

She did refuse to be smuggled into the Houses of Parliament to drop flour on the prime ministers head, but she dropped leaflets from London Bridge. She again managed to talk her way out of an arrest, she married Albert Barnes in 1919. She was shocked by Pankhurst's disregard for matrimony. Pankhurst was a communist. Barnes became a councillor in Stepney. In 1938 she joined the Charity Organization Society, active in assisting the poor but it had a poor reputation. Under her advice the organisation changed its name to remove the word "charity" to assist those who received their philanthropy, she and her husband were bombed out during the Second World War and lived for a time at Toynbee Hall. She continued to keep in contact with Sylvia Pankhurst until she emigrated to Ethiopia in 1955. Barnes died in 1982 in East Ham; the accounts of Barnes's life were in part inspiration for the film Suffragette. Annie Barnes. Tough Annie: From Suffragette to Stepney Councillor. Stepney Books.
