Throughout the years, we have all seen the great horses of Hollywood. Growing up watching the noble steeds of cowboy heroes, etched into our brains the idea of an iconic wonder horse like Roy Roger’s Trigger, The Lone Rangers Hi-Ho Silver, or John Wayne’s beloved Dollar! In order to thrive on set, these horses truly had to be just as amazing in real life as they were on the big screens. They carried iconic western stars on cattle drives, cutting cows from the herd for branding, chasing bad guys through mountain passes and across barren plains, or simply to town for supplies.

This is really the story of that, and I scoured the nation looking for the finest horses I could find.” (https://www.aqha.com/-/the-horses-of-1883-) The series features stars Sam Elliott, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and more. Twix starred as the character “Colton’s” horse, where he was ridden by actor Noah Le Gros from episode 6 through the end of the season. He was THE HORSE Faith Hill’s character stole to go rescue her daughter, and Hill even ends up shooting a horse thief off of his back! You can find Twix in many facets of the series.
