                                                               The Gypsy Cob



The Romany people have known for decades the worth of their superb horses and now the rest of the world is privileged to become a part of these wonderful animals lives.


With an ever growing population of purebred Gypsy Cobs now in Australia I have fulfilled my dream to breed my own Gypsy Cobs. Starting back in 2010, my first partbred foal, TriColby Aliyana, was born to Allie Mae and the imported pure-bred stallion, Wimballan Harker’s Geordie. I went on to breed three more foals from Geordie, TriColby Griffin, TriColby Tudor Rose and TriColby Little Bandit. Geordie’s foals were the sweetest tempered, most people loving horses I’d ever come across and are typical of the gypsy cobs I aimed to breed. They merely tempted me further.


It was then I bought my first purebred Gypsy Cob. By Windenvale Caval Ridge and out of Teddies Mare, my future stud colt, Windenvale Tiny Tim arrived. He captured my heart from the moment he was born and he just fills me with joy each and every day. The sweetest nature, the desire to please, the willingness to work and the pleasure he displays to be in our company. Tim has been gelded now but his impact on our stud will always be felt. The Chocolatier then joined our stud for a couple of years before heading back down to his home in VIC, a gentleman if I've ever met one with proven Supreme Winning foals around the country, he has even spent time travelling with the Moscow Circus.


I have realised my dream with my first few purebred foals on the ground and they are everything I aimed for and more. I am focusing on the addition of smaller purebreds suitable for ridden and harness going into the future and our current stud stallions, Marindy Ace of Spades and our newest imported stallion, The Ants Pants, will further bring our dreams closer at only 12.1hh and 11.3hh respectively and both boys being homozygous for the small gene!  I have been very proud to call all these boys my own.


Now the dreams become reality!
