A sprightly looking creature, Theodore O?Connor is a 14.1-hand Thoroughbred Sport Pony gelding. He made history at the 2007 Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event CCI**** in Lexington, Kentucky as he became the first pony (horses are 14.2 hands or taller) to compete in the prestigious four-star event. 'The Pony', as he was referred to throughout the weekend, was piloted to third place by two-time Olympic medallist Karen O?Connor and was one of only two horses to finish the stadium jumping round with no jumping or time penalties. In the end, he was awarded the Best Conditioned Horse Trophy. Then, to further that spectacular start to the competitive year, he carried O?Connor to a double gold medal victory in the 2007 Pan American Games!
This beautiful pony is recreated in a finely detailed 1:9 scale Breyer Traditional model. Better known as Teddy, this spirited model is sure to be well loved by collectors and children alike.
