Thank you for visiting our website.            
Please stay and browse a while. We enjoy your email comments!

Many of our American Quarter Horses are imported from their ranch homes in the USA, 
to settle in South Wales - where the grass really IS greener.   
   
To ensure superb temperament and stock working sensibilities in our foals,  our foundation breeding is to the strictest (NFQHA) standard. 
                                                           
  
•  Athletic Performance Conformation
•  Versatility with cow sense  
•  Good with people
•  High NFQHA Foundation Breeding
  
•  With interesting color as a bonus

Mind and body - conformed to perform


Proud Home of   Isabelle Image
the world's first Silver & Gold Champagne Quarter Horse
82% Foundation Breeding (NFQHA Standard)

                 
In addition to being well bred, great natured and conformed for performance, 
Izzy is Unique for Two Reasons:

First, Izzy is Britain's only known Quarter Horse carrying the Silver Gene  ...

Secondly, Izzy is AQHA's only dual Silver AND Champagne gene carrier outside the United States. 
While Izzy's sorrel base coat masks Izzy's silver gene, she will still pass it on to her offspring. 
Izzy's Champagne gene gives her pink skin, amber eyes, and mottling around the eyes and muzzle.

Building on Solid Foundations ... with   NFQHA

        
    Over the past few decades, we feel the original Quarter Horse Type and Character have been slowly eroded by the constant influx of Thoroughbred blood, via the Appendix Registry used within the American Quarter Horse Association (AQHA) All our purebred Quarter Horses are either Certified or Percentage Confirmed by NFQHA ... the National Foundation Quarter Horse Association. This ensures they contain less than 20% added Thoroughbred blood via the Appendix Registry. The higher the NFQHA rating, the greater the actual Quarter Horse (Stock Type) content in the horse. You can read more about this worrying trend, by reading the article, When is a Quarter Horse ... Not a Quarter Horse? ... by K. Taylor Rhys
