More than 20 years ago, Flash, a then young Morgan gelding, was found everywhere: in the show ring, the hunt field, participating in mounted games, and helping his young rider earn her progressively more difficult ratings in the U.S. Pony Clubs. Today, the 14.1h bay Flash is still doing much the same thing, this time with the next generation of young riders, all of them eager to know what Flash has to teach them! Flash is that rare equine who has the patience for beginners, and the sophistication to carry advanced riders to any height of accomplishment. He was, therefore, an easy choice for the U.S. Pony Clubs, when, in order to commemorate its 50th anniversary of teaching riding and horsemanship, they called for nominations for the Pony Club mount that helped fulfill the goals of the USPC. Flash had some stiff competition, but in reviewing his extensive contributions, his unflagging enthusiasm, and his successful list of riders, it was an easy decision. Flash was named the USPC 50th Anniversary Horse after being nominated by the Mount Kearsage (NH) Pony Club. Breyer Animal Creations then commissioned former Chico, CA Pony Clubber, Sue Sifton, to memoralize this great horse!
