Why follow the crowd! No warmblood in this English Gentleman! as a 5 year old Ricco qualified for BN DIS SCOPE, and SSH 5 year old Finals 2004.
Performance & No European bloodlines here just the best TB breeding you can get, the ones the continentals use to create a Warmblood, Captain Maverick, Chef-De- Race Nureyev,& Northern Dancer, and that`s dads side! Top Hat, Flying Bee Mum`s side.
Ricco has been successful, in both show jumping and showing. Ricco has an outstanding temperament. He was successful at the British Equestrian Federation/South Essex Insurance BrokersYoung Horse Evaluation Series 2003 overall score of 7.43 Gaining BEF Breeding and Performance Diplomas.

The future.
There are some very exciting barriers to be broken down for coloured horses, I found Ricco to use on my own mares orginally, I had the good fortune and luck to be able to acquire him and then stand him at public stud.
When I found Ricco I had spent months looking for the best TB bloodlines with tobiano to produce the quality and the genes, to breed Tobiano racehorse`s. this is our stud policy and to gain GSB acceptance.
We all value types of mares for different reasons - for warmbloods Ricco can add speed and agility, and his good looks of course. For mares that are tradional or cobs Ricco produces stunning hunters and pleasure to own horses !
The Foals that we breeding are out of pure TB flat and national hunt mares,including such names as Saddlers Wells, now retired, Oscar, Dr Fong Ashkalani, Redoutable Kris,,Pursuit of Love deceased ,& Darshaan, Tagula, & Roi Danzig, & Danehill.
Ricco has had 22 mares scanned in foal to so far Sept 10 08. we are still waiting for 4 more to be scanned .
All Stock by Ricco and registered GSB mares & NTR Weatherbys brood Mares are eligable to race.
Being a truly outstanding person Ricco has passed his temperament on to all his offspring, and is prepotency to the Thoroughbred and passes these gene traits on, and these are more visable in the foal, than those of the mares.
Testimonial for Ricco
Ricco has excellent conformation & bone, a fantastic temperament, and incredible elastic, off-the-ground paces with superb balance and extension. He also has a very scopey, careful and powerful jump, and is a quick thinking, intelligent horse. He is well & evenly marked, has a good head, huge presence, and is a tremendous stamp of horse that will breed excellent sports horses.
The filly, Knickerbocker Glory (Cookie) is an extraordinary horse that should make a top-class competition horse that will excel in any sphere. She is very well put together, with a good sloping shoulder, a well-set neck, exquisite head, strong rounded quarters and superb straight limbs. She is well marked, has a very friendly and relaxed temperament, and fantastic paces, with a huge amount of energy, balance and elegance. She has been sold to a lovely family in Livingston to have a career in Showing, Working Hunter Classes, BSJA and Eventing. I feel the service offered by Heather and Lev at Angrove Stud is second to none. They are very professional and accommodating; especially with Chardy who is a ‘difficult’ mare to put it mildly, and with Gem’s foal Bella that was at foot while Gem was at the stud in 2006. I am over the moon with little Cookie, and am planning to send Gem back to the stud in the future to breed another for myself!

His pedigree reads like a who`s who.
GD Little tobago won 3 races in the USA, and won $21051 placed 6 times including 3rd in the Cherry Hill Oaks, Garden state, Gr 3: dam of 7 winners one of which is Monfarid Captain mavericks full brother who won £1218 in the UK and won 2 races in the USA winning $64,775.
GS, Nureyev won Prix Thomas Bryon (Fr-G3), Prix Djebel (FR). His performance in the 2000 Guineas (Eng-I), turned out to be a show of force, as he went through a wall of horses rather than around them, and was disqualified. It was the first time a Guineas winner had been disqualified. Easily won on merit.
