A horse who was rescued at just ten months old from a freezing field with his emaciated mother and a group of other horses is the muse for the World Horse Sculpture Trail which will be displayed at a number of locations across the UK this year.

World Horse Welfare’s ‘World Horse Trail’ will feature forty sculptures all modelled on Lucas who is now transformed and competes at a number of equestrian disciplines (including showing, dressage and cross country) with his Fife-rehomer, Colleen Macrae.

Acclaimed sculptor, Judy Boyt, travelled to Lucas’ home in Fife to ‘live sculpt’ a maquette of the young horse which was then scaled up to create a mould for the large fibreglass horses which make up the sculpture trails.

Twenty 11hh sculptures will make up two trails, the first of which will be on display around the towns of Windsor and Eton from mid-April, before moving to Kensington and Chelsea. The second trail will be showcased at the Royal Windsor Horse Show where World Horse Welfare is 2019 Charity of the Year and where Lucas will also be travelling to compete in a showing class - flying the flag for rescue horses everywhere.
