The Nooitgedachter is a South African breed of riding horse.[3]: 59 It is the result of a selective breeding programme established in 1952 to preserve the Basutho Pony of Lesotho. It was later decided to give it a different name; it was at first called the Nooitgedacht Pony, named for the Proefplaas Nooitgedacht, the research station near Ermelo in Eastern Transvaal (now Mpumalanga) where it was bred; it was later called the Nooitgedacht Horse until the present name was chosen.[4][5]: 490 It is a rare breed, with only about 400 purebreds in existence.[citation needed]
