Brentina
Named 2003 Limited Edition Breyer Model Horse
|
Gladstone,
NJ—May 13, 2003— The USET is pleased to announce that
Brentina, owned by Peggy and Parry Thomas and ridden to the 2002
USET Dressage Grand Prix Championship by Debbie McDonald, has
been chosen as the 2003 USET Breyer model horse. Brentina is the
eighth Breyer model in the popular USET series.
Brentina
and McDonald were double Gold Medal winners at the 1999 Pan American
Games. The pair was also the 2001 USET Grand Prix Champions. This
past September, at the World Equestrian Games in Spain, Brentina
and Debbie were part of the Team Silver Medal earned by the U.S.
The pair finished an impressive fourth in the WEG individual standings.
The
Breyer Big Ben mold was adjusted to create an accurate mare model
of Brentina. The specially designed Brentina horse will be limited
to a run of 750. Purchase of this special edition model is limited
to two (2) per customer or address. In the past, these models
have sold out quickly and become true collectibles for horse enthusiasts.
The model will first be available for sale at the Bayer/USET Festival
of Champions, June 19 - 22 in Gladstone, New Jersey. All models
remaining after the initial Festival sale will be filled from
the mail/fax/internet requests in the order in which they were
received. To reserve your models, return this form via fax (908)

of $50.00 + $5.00 (shipping/ handling) per horse by check, money
