Harley

Today rounds out our 20^th guest horse reveal! We know this guy will help celebrate Breyer’s 75^th anniversary in style. Fans will be excited to see this big, handsome guy back at BreyerFest! This star is still in the regular line of Breyer models and is consistently a favorite among new and old collectors. Welcome back, Harley!

At the racetrack, it's the slick Thoroughbreds in their colorful saddle cloths that catch everyone's eye. That is, until a large and colorful lead pony steps onto the track! Daisy's Chief Dane, better known as “Harley,” garners attention whenever he works due to his large size and black blanket appaloosa coat. As a track "pony," Harley must be calm, confident, and strong to safely lead Thoroughbreds to the starting gate. Luckily, those are all trademarks of the American Sugarbush Harlequin Draft Horse breed! The breed's founders crossed Percherons with Appaloosas to create these colorful workhorses with good dispositions.

Harley has ponied horses in the Kentucky Derby and famed racers like California Chrome and Frammento. Working at Kentucky's Churchill Downs and Keeneland Racecourse, he's developed a fan following of his own–people come to the races just to see Harley in action! As he works alongside Thoroughbred superstars, he's quickly become just as famous! Harley is excited to be back at BreyerFest and see his many fans!
