Yesterday we revealed champion Lusitano gelding Diablo DC was returning to BreyerFest, and today we have another Spanish horse to reveal – who is coincidentally owned by the same family as Diablo! This star has not been to BreyerFest since he was a Limited Edition portrait model in 2014 for BreyerFest: Silver Jubilee and is excited to see his fans again!

Novelisto D, otherwise known as “Listo,” is a 16.3 hand PRE Andalusian stallion registered with the ILAHA and ANCCE registry. Bred by Denham Ranch and owned by the Waller family, Listo comes from old military lines. His impressive show record speaks for itself with titles such as National "Horse of the Year," Dressage, Hunt Seat, and many more including "Best of Breed." Renowned Hollywood horse trainer Cari Swanson put many hours of hard work into Listo's training for all of his acting skills & stunts. In addition to the tricks, he had to learn how to take care of his riders and co-stars. He also underwent classical dressage training with Swanson to skillfully accomplish difficult riding maneuvers.

The payoff was well worth it, as the outcome was a feature part in Warner Bros. movie, Winter's Tale. Listo stared in this romantic film set in New York City with Colin Farrell, Russell Crowe, Jessica Brown Findlay, Will Smith, and many more. Most recently Listo starred in a Paramount+ commercial with Tim McGraw. The love that Listo embodies and brings to the set is powerful and soulful, and his magnetism draws you even deeper, making him so endearing to everyone he meets.
Listo, now 26 and slowly stepping out of the movie set spotlight, enjoys being pampered like the star he is and lending his incredible genes to future stars! In 2020 he was honored with the tile of USEF Sire of the Year and many of his offspring are starting to gain USEF titles of their own. Listo and the Waller family are excited for him to return to BreyerFest after 11 years and share some movie magic with fans again!
Novelisto D models will not be available at BreyerFest. We encourage fans to bring theirs with them if they want any photos of their model with the real horse!
