The plate on the base identifies Total Package as the creation of Gabe Trevizio, and she is owned by the American Quarter Horse Museum. The American Quarter Horse Association purchased the first twenty horses in the project, so she might be one of the early ones. She's gray on one side, with black muzzle and tail, and a saddle. Her forelegs are black and white. Her black mane is bundled, a practice that some Native Americans used to avoid problems with their bows and arrows. On the other side, she is tan, with a saddle atop a blue saddle blanket Her bridle is brown on the gray side, and brown and blue on the tan side.
