Sire: Ourem
Noble's sire Ourem carries the strong and highly sought after Veiga bloodlines. Ourem himself was a revered bullfighting stallion.
The Veiga lineage is one of only four basic bloodlines recognized by the Lusitano Stud Book, being considered as the purest of them all. The Veiga horse can be considered as the Pegasus improver of the Lusitano breed.
The Veiga bloodline produced the most genuine war horse of Ancient Lusitania. 'Veigas' are extremely functional - excellent bull fighters. They have the typical convex head known as the "Veiga head", flat thin legs with prominent hocks, fantastic impulsion and proud flexible necks.
The Veiga lineage is a true race within the Lusitano breed and the stallions when used on mares of any other lineage have the power to transmit to the offspring the most typical characteristics of the Lusitanian race.

Dam Sire: Nordeste SS
Sociedade das Silveiras is one of the greatest show-wining breeders in Portugal, where the horses of their brand have consistently obtained the most prestigious championships. Silveiras’ stallions have been very successful at the bullfighting arena. Sociedade das Silveiras is one of the largest exporters of Lusitanos from Portugal to the rest of Europa and to Brazil.
Noble's dam-sire Nordeste SS was bred by one of the most famous Lusitano breeders: Sociedade das Silveiras. Nordeste is now standing in Brazil at the world renown Interagro Lusitanos. Before his export Nordeste won a number of in dressage at the Prix St Geroge level.
Nordeste’s dam, Xaqueca (CI), is a black Quina (CI) mare who has produced numerous exceptional horses, demonstrating the quality progeny from the cross between Firme/Nilo/Novilheiro and Quina mares. Achieving this fusion of bloodlines and quality has been one of the greatest achievements of Interagro’s breeding program, creating one of the basic lines for the formation of the Interagro horse: animals of great beauty, size and athletic qualities specially bred for the dressage arena.
