Glastrier may also be based on {{wp|Shire horse}}s and {{wp|Clydesdale horse}}s, draft horse breeds from the UK. Glastrier's tail length may be a reference to these horse breeds often having {{wp|equine conformation|low tail sets}}, while its large ice-covered hooves may be a stylization of the horse breeds' large {{wp|feathering (horse)|feathered}} hooves. | Glastrier may also be based on {{wp|Shire horse}}s and {{wp|Clydesdale horse}}s, draft horse breeds from the UK.

Glastrier together with Spectrier may also be based on the {{wp|Horsehead Nebula}}, a horse-shaped nebula near the constellation {{wp|Orion}}. Glastrier itself may also be based on the {{wp|Monoceros}} (unicorn) constellation, which also borders Orion. This would correspond to Calyrex possibly representing Orion itself or {{wp|Lepus (constellation)|Lepus}}, the "hare" constellation located right below Orion, as well as Zacian and Zamazenta possibly representing {{wp|Canis Major}}, which borders both Monoceros and Lepus. | |||
