Nobby (the one and only!)
9 year old world famous, proven stallion

"Nobby" as he is affectionately known by the family that bred him, is a culmination of most of the best gypsy horse blood that there has ever been.  The Vines family has bred for this horse for generations, with him being the culmination of a lifetime of their best efforts.  He is not some colt someone picked up for a good price, or a stallion that they had for a couple of seasons and sold on;  this horse is the product of an incredibly honed, tried and tested breeding program that is one of the best known breeding programs for this type of horse in the world.  He's as proven as proven gets, with fillies and colts that are incredibly in demand on both sides of "The Pond". 

Nobby was leased last season to a farm on the West coast, but is now here in Colorado looking for his new permanent home.

Nobby is 14.1 - 2 hands tall (traditional size), and has amazing feather, with clean, chiseled joints and bone.  He has the ideal head for a "sweet" type gypsy cob, and he leaves that in his foals (if you have a look thru this site to see many of his fabulous babies he has produced, you will see that he really reproduces himself in type).  His disposition cannot be beat, this horse is the "poster child" for the gentle and docile gypsy horse disposition.  Nobby is by the incredibly famous horse known as "The Lottery" who's name came about because "having his foals is like winning the Lottery" (incidentally, "the Lottery" recently sold in England for an unreported sum, BUT, we do know that 'the deal' included a new SUV, a £20,000 filly (that's pounds, which is OVER $36,000 USDollars), AND an amount of cash).  Nobby is about the best example of Lottery foals, and he has become known for being the same way as his sire, producing foals that are like winning the lottery. 

If someone wants to make a true mark in the gypsy horse world, and have one of the top and most proven stallions anywhere IN THE WORLD, they will seriously consider this horse.  He, naturally, isn't going to be a cheap one, but no one knowledgeable in this breed would expect that he would be.  We are thrilled to say that the Vines family have deemed the American breeders and our budding gypsy horse breeding industry - worthy of sending over the best horse they ever bred. 

There is no need to "reinvent the wheel", with a horse like this, your breeding program can begin at the top, a feat already hard-earned by generations of trial and error and thousands of horses produced to a culmination in this true work of art.   This horse is an investment of a lifetime of hard work for his breeder, and will be an investment in a breeding program that begins and ends at the top in North America.  The foundation that  this horse will provide cannot be equaled.  His breeding has made his bloodline one of the best-known and most valuable in the world, and will do the same for his new owner.   He will provide years and years of service producing those incredibly valuable foals for which he has become world-famous.  Nobby, a British Masterpiece, can now become an American Dream!  If you are serious about breeding for the best, and only the best, you cannot afford to pass up this opportunity.
