The Popcorn Stallion & His Beautiful Daughter

The popcorn stallion has been turning heads for a few years now and with his gleaming, golden coat and flowing mane he it is easy to see why he has so many fans.   Everyone loves a pretty horse but Popcorn has so much more than good looks.  From head to toe, this horse is perfectly put together and this is what brings performance.  Popcorn's paces are breath taking and his movement takes him from stunner to show stopper! Popcorn loves to work and he will work all day and most importantly he is kind and sensible. Popcorn has been sought for stud duties and has sired some excellent horses.  It is always exciting to see foals, but it is even better to have the chance to see them mature and ultimately work.  Popcorn is an excellent producer and passes his attributes to his progeny and for me this takes Popcorn from a special horse to an exceptional stallion. Owner, Robert Giles has carefully produced this beautiful Popcorn daughter from a filly and has enjoyed bringing her

Decades of producing and breeding exceptional cobs and still enjoying it!

Jimmy Bower's Show Stopping Mare on Wickham

What a beautiful sight with Jimmy Bower's stunning mare on Wickham Fair.  This mare is a real show stopper and the turnout and harness topped it all off.

Tony Scott's Pride

Pride needs little introduction as he has fans throughout the UK and beyond.   I have been admiring Pride for years and I thought he was a show stopper on first sight.  However this is a horse that looks more beautiful with every appearance. Pride really does have everything you could wish for in a quality cob.  First of all he is stunning!  A handsome horse with a pretty head and a kind eye. I am sure that his owner, Tony Scott must work very hard on turn out, but it is worth it!  For me, the flowing white mane, tail and feathers make the horse look as though he has stepped off the pages of a fairy tale story. Pride isn't just beautiful, he is an exceptional working cob with the proper conformation that enables him to go all day. It is rare to see a cob whose proportions are so in balance and the combination of strength and substance with athleticism. Pride has wonderful, natural step and he always looks so happy and enthusiastic in his work. Pride has great cha

The Queenie Mare

The Queenie Mare The Queenie mare is outstanding in every respect - she really has it all.  Queenie is a beauty; a lovely old fashioned stamp of a cob with a pretty little face and amazing action.  She also has the temperament to match with a great attitude to work and the kindest nature. Queenie does everything.  She has pulled a dray, a London trolley and loves her work. Queenie has loads of presence and plenty to offer yet is sensible and honest enough to suit a novice or a child.  This is what we call a proper cob!!!
