"2023 Freedom Series Gambler’s Choice model: Santino. For the first time since 2008, the Polo Pony will be returning to the line in three fabulous, modern colors designed by Lesli Kathman. The Polo Pony first debuted in 1976 and was one of the first Breyer models to use a base to support a dynamic pose. Polo has found fans and farms all over the world, but many of the most prized horses in the sport have lines that trace back to Argentina. A popular cross to produce world-class polo mounts is the Thoroughbred with local Argentine Criollo horses. Argentina is also the origin of “manchado” – a unique white-spotting pattern with scattered, jagged edges and colorful spots of various sizes. Santino will be available in three colorways: Bay Manchado Pinto, Glossy Dappled Palomino, and Chestnut Blanket Appaloosa." www.breyerhorses.com.
