English term or phrase: miniature horse
Are miniature horses a recognized horse breed?

No. There is no recognized breed-wide standard for miniaturized horses, and dozens of separate registries emerged for miniature horses, each with their own unique standards for conformation and size.

Sera que poderia ser traduzido como ponei ou apenas minicavalo?

Agradeço qualquer esclarecimento.

cavalo-anão


Explanation:
penso que o termo em causa não se refere a poneys, visto que esse termo até é de origem anglófona, pelo que se fosse a isso que o texto se referisse, não teria que ser traduzido, pois refere cavalos com determinadas características, já reconhecidas e definidas.Os cavalos-anões são realmente miniaturas, quase do tamanho de um cavalo de baloiço, muito raros e por isso mesmo a referência no texto de que existe apenas cerca de 1 dezena de registos, cada um com as suas características próprias (logo, não´constitui uma raça)
