From Wikipedia

The French Chaser, French: Autre Que Pur-Sang or AQPS, is a French breed of racehorse bred specifically for its jumping ability in steeplechase and cross-country racing. It originates from warmblood horses bred principally for military use in the nineteenth century. It was officially recognised as a breed in 2005, and a stud-book was started in that year or in 2006. Only horses with at least 87.5%, but less than 100%, Thoroughbred blood are eligible for registration. Out-crossing with Thoroughbred, Anglo-Arab and Selle Français stock is permitted.
