Clononeen Tumbleweed

The "Sire of Sires"

Dam: Clononeen Queen Bee

 

Known simply as the Sire of Sires, Tumbleweed is one of the best producers in England whose progeny were the highest priced at the March Fair in 2007. He is the sire of Clononeen Playboy (now proudly owned by Harlequin Farms). Playboy was inspected by a CHAPS certified judge for the GCHDA and scored the highest accolade of a first premium.

 

Tumbleweed is known throughout England and Ireland as one of the best "getters" or "producers" in the breed. Each time he stamps his stock with sweet heads, small ears and tiny muzzles. His striking traditional skewbald colouring and beautifully balanced confirmation is a credit to his breed. Tumbleweed's hair is also exceptional, with a full straight and silky mane, tail and abundant feathering. Tumbleweed stands at 13.3 h, although he tends to throw larger foals.  

Gypsy Cobs are known for their sweet disposition, and Tumbleweed is no exception. He is intelligent, willing, alert and gentle with the mares. Always willing to have a visitor, he is indeed a gentle giant of strength and endurance.

 

Colour DNA testing on Tumbleweed has confirmed that he is homozygous for Tobiano so will only ever produce coloured foals, no matter what mare he is bred to. We look forward to breeding more the quality offspring he is so celebrated for.

Tumbleweed will be available to a limited number of outside mares by private treaty. *Contact us for more details.

Clononeen Tullamore Dew (Tully)

Clononeen Tullamore Dew, (Tully for short), is an outstanding young Stallion!  His Dam Ballywilliam Lady is one of Ireland’s finest producing mares (who is by Paddy Horse) and sired by Clononeen Dunbrody who needs no introduction. Tully is from Clononeen Dunbrody’s first foal crop and his first and only progeny standing at stud in Canada. He is full of the fire of the Irish Whisky he was named after but is a perfect gentleman with our Mares and at 15hh will play a very important role in our breeding program.  Tully is also fully broke to drive, so you may see him when we start to show.  His dashing blue eye and beautiful stride will quickly win your heart!
