Welcome to Usk Valley Equine
QUARTER HORSES
APPALOOSA'S
& MORE
We are situated in the picturesque village of Glascoed in Monmouthshire, South Wales. Which is easily accessible from all major routes, and only 20 mins from the Severn Bridge.
We were established in 1995 breeding American Quarter Horses. We were fortunate enough to purchase our first stallion Showboy Dun whom we used on our Welsh Cob mares at the time and bred ourselves some very nice part breds. We slowly phased out the Cobs and bought in some pure bred mares, Zero Sandstorm and Pesky Sarasparilla, these mares were the start of our pure bred Quarter Horse breeding program. We later bought Continental Skippa, and then another stallion Lunar Lucre.
We have now built up a younger generation of broodmares from our "old girls", some of whom are now deceased, our oldest mare at the moment is Manar May Time. The bloodlines we have here include some of the golden oldies such as Waccabuc aka Tuffy Dude, Zero Depth Charge, Continental Kasey, Continental King, King, Poco Bueno, Mr Harmon Zero, Silverhand Showboy, Wimpy, Peter Mccue, Blondy's Dude, Joe Cody, Skipper W, and loads more... a lot of the horses in their pedigrees are in the AQHA Hall of Fame Museum .
We now have two stallions at stud our AQH Asedra Chicago Heat, who is a lovely golden buckskin and is producing some great colours and our Appaloosa Lythill Silver Wings, who being a few spot is producing colour on every mare he is put with, from leopards & roans to blanket spots. There is lots of competition horses in his bloodlines including showjumping, dressage, and western. Both stallions have good temperaments and conformation and as a bonus are good colour producers.
We have a small broodmare band, where our goal is to produce quality horses that have good bloodlines, great conformation and colour, and of course good minds, a combination of which they should excel in any discipline, whether it be for English or Western riding.
We usually have youngstock and mature trained horses available for sale, from ourselves and also on behalf of our clients.
