`Ricco is an Evenly marked piebald Tobiano, he was bred for his bloodlines and ability. Ricco's Sire was Captain Maverick a very well known sire of `Sarahs Pride` the Puissance winner jumping 6 ft 11 inches in 2003 with Carl Curtis on board. Beating the legendary Arko twice, Sarahs pride was sold to the US for 1 million dollars we are fortunate to have acquired Sarahs pride only daughter and breeding progeny who was bred to Ricco to produce are next stallion, Angrove Spotted Dick who has been Tested Homozygous.
Ricco's Dam was owned by Sue Kennedy of the Honeypot Stud, Ricco's Grandsire Zhivago is the sire of Tullibards Shakespeare.
Ricco's TB Bloodline includes the Tetrarch the Spotted Wonder (He was the fastest two year old of his day and his record still stands ) who had spots he appears 5 times in Ricco’s pedigree.
When I found Ricco I had spent months looking for the best TB bloodlines in Colour to produce quality TB’s with Tobiano coloured genes. I wanted to produce future generations that carried the Tobiano gene that is pure TB and guaranteed to throw colour. We believe we have found the right TB families to help us attain our goal, which is to attain GSB status with homebred coloureds and be at the start of breeding for coloured horse racing in the UK. |
