"Nugget"

(Gayfield's The Thief  x Smoke Tree Lure of the Gold)

 13.2hh  ~  2004 Welsh Section B palomino stallion

Nugget is ridden, shown and trained by USDF Gold Medal winner Patty Russell of Canter Lane Dressage

Smoke Tree Gold Fever (Nugget) has definitely exceeded our expectations. He won his one and only in-hand class at his first Welsh show as a yearling, and we had only been his owners  for 4 months.  Now that he is older, he is going out and competing at USDF recognized dressage shows and is coming on with numerous HI - POINT awards and blue ribbons. See his ribbons and awards by going HERE.

His pedigree is totally top drawer, a true "who's who" in classy Welsh pony breeding carrying names with famous prefixes such as GAYFIELD'S, COED COCH, RAMBUR, BROOKHALL, COTTRELL and of course SMOKE TREE. 

He is a wonderfully elegant pony blessed with loads of bone, short cannons, correct and elegant movement, powerful shoulders and hip, an elegant neck and top line capped with a BEAUTIFUL slightly dished head and large soft eyes.  To top it all his temperament is outstanding.

He is proving himself not only in the breeding shed with the lovely foals he is siring but also in the dressage arena where his temperament shines through; exhibiting a truly honest work ethic.

His semen ships very well, all mares that were bred to him in 2006 were pronounced pregnant on the first or second cycle.  Once you have committed to breeding your mare to our boy then so are we committed to you totally, 100%.  We will do our absolute best to see you get that foal of your dreams.  We are quite easy to get a hold of and we respond to messages and e-mails quickly and professionally.   Your success is our success.
