The original Galloping Horse weather vane design was commissioned by the Del Mar Racetrack in Southern California.  They commissioned two 4-foot versions all in copper.  The weathervane shown above has a brass mane and tail.  A fletching can be added below the horizontal tube if you'd like us to add the name of your ranch or farm in gold leaf letters.  A sample of this type of fletching is shown below.

 

The horse (Equus caballus, sometimes seen as a subspecies of the Wild Horse, Equus ferus caballus) is a large odd-toed ungulate mammal, one of ten modern species of the genus Equus. Horses first evolved in the Americas, but went extinct there until reintroduced by Europeans. Horses have long been among the most economically important domesticated animals and are prominent in religion and mythology. The horse has played an important role as transportation, as a source of food, fuel, and clothing, and as a weapon.
