The horses which Tommy (Harrison Ford) and Avram (Gene Wilder) ride into San Francisco are different from the horses in earlier scenes, which were smaller and used for galloping for long distances. The horses in this later scene are American Quarter Horses. You can tell this, because their heads and faces are smaller, while their bodies are larger and more muscular, and their rumps (which Avram would call the tuchas) are much rounder than the rumps of long-distance-running horses. The Quarter Horse is very swift for a short distance. The earlier horses, perhaps of a mixed breed, were used for their stamina and placidness.
