Breyer Horses Norwich Prime Pricing Plus Free Shipping

Sleek and sophisticated, the Hackney Pony was once
considered the pinnacle of driving fashion. Bred to
be light carriage ponies with a natural high-stepping
trot, they not only looked flashy, but also covered
distances quickly thanks to their brisk gait and
stamina.
Today’s Hackney Ponies have retained the elegance
of their forebearers, and are appreciated as quality
driving ponies both for competition and pleasure.
Their graceful movements and athletic appearance
earned them the moniker, “ballerina of the show
ring.” While Hackney Ponies account for most of the
Hackneys in the United States, they are considered a
rare breed in the UK where they are listed as “critical”
by the Rare Breeds Survival Trust.
Displaying a richly-shaded chestnut coat, alert
expression, and compact body, Norwich is a fine
example of the breed. Norwich’s name is a nod to the
city in England where the UK’s Hackney Horse Society
was founded in 1883.
