LEXINGTON, Ky. - Fans waited several hours for a chance to have Priscilla Presley sign toy models of her late husband's gold palomino, Rising Sun, after hearing stories of the King's equine antics.

Elvis bought horses for everyone in his entourage, Priscilla Presley told the crowd at Kentucky Horse Park on Friday, "whether you liked horses or not and whether you were afraid of them or not, because if you were, he was going to break you of that."

The Lexington Herald-Leader reported Presley was at the horse park as part of Breyer Fest, an annual convention of toy horse collectors. Toy horse maker Breyer was introducing its Elvis Presley Collection, which features Elvis riding Rising Sun, as well as models of horses that live at the Graceland Stables in Memphis, Tenn.
