Indy, Slew O' Gold and Capote.

5.0 out of 5 stars Seattle Slew, October 22, 2004

A Kid's Review

= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Seattle Slew  (Toy)

This model is great for anyone especially if you love history horses. The Seattle Slew model is great not only because of his neck thing of roses and his tall dark and handsome shape but because he was a TRIPLE CROWN WINNER! He's just an awsome model and would be a great addition to your collection. The only complaints I can think of are that you have to be very delicate with the flower thing or the flowers start falling off and Seattle Slew's back left leg bends in a little bit which prevents him from standing on carpet evan though he can stand on a hard evan surface. Make sure to check out the models, War Admiral(Triple Crown Winner) and Seabiscuit to.

This is a wonderful piece with the nice addition of Slew's blanket of roses from his winning Kentucky Derby. The likeness is remarkable, the quality and attention to detail top-notch. Breyer horses have come a long way since I was a kid, that's for sure! Slew has an honored place next to Affirmed and Secretariat in my china cabinet.
