Expert Posts: 3147	I bought the Breyer's Cigar model the first time I saw it and I only own two others-a gift and General Robert E. Lee's Traveler for my history buff son. Cigar's model depicted a race horse in full stride better than any model I've seen-bar none. I recently watched the video of Cigar's win in the first Dubai Classic and I picked him out in the race due to his running style. Head and neck stretched out, flat back with just a slight head tilt to the right and very little head bobbing motion. He had one of the most fluid strides I've seen! It was such a waste when his sperm proved defective. RIP CIGAR!
