Schleich figurines are modelled in the finest detail to help children learn while they play. American Saddlebreds are well-known for keeping their heads and their beautifully curved tail high - like the American Saddlebred gelding by Schleich Horse Club. The horse breed has a balanced, even-tempered nature and is extremely willing to perform. Some American Saddlebreds master two additional gaits, the slow gait and the so-called rack gait.Fun Fact: These horses used to be called Kentucky Saddler, because their breeding began in the state of Kentucky.
