Kelly is the middle daughter of Anne and Robin.

She again has been riding for as long as she can remember and horses have dictated her life. Having left school with 9 GCSE and 4 A levels Kelly then gained her BHS AI and started her own business that she has run from Thornton Farm ever since. Kelly specialises in finding, training and producing Working Hunter Horses and ponies, under the "Noble" prefix along and combined with this Kelly and her husband Nick also run a busy show jumping team of horses and ponies. Some of her and their majors achievments can be seen below. Kelly has produced and sold many horses and ponies that have achieved RIHS and HOYS Championships and European Medals.

Kelly runs a busy stable of approximately 15 horses and ponies ranging from those being broken in to show champions who compete on the circuit weekly. All of Kelly charges are treated as individuals and work programmes are tailored to their specific needs.

Kelly is a dedicated teacher to her pupils and enjoys nothing more than to see them improve and achieve at all levels ranging from riding club to Horse of The Year Show.

Kelly combines here busy work life with having a young family; she is married to Nick and together with her Step daughter Emily (16) , their daughter Ruby (8) and son James (5) live in Ness a few minutes away from the yard.

Nick a keen horseman has show jumped and evented. His first love is show jumping and he too along with Kelly sources and sells potential stars.

Emily is already proving herself a very capable rider qualifying her first ponies for The Royal International and Horse of The year Show aged seven, and is a vital cog in the wheel of producing some lovely young ponies. Emily competes in both show jumping and working hunter pony classes, in 2012 she produced Noble Danny Macks to stand Champion at The Royal International Horse Show and was National Under 23 Champion riding Witch at Olympia Horse Show. This year Emily represented Great Britain at The European Championships and came home with a silver medal. Emily has recently become National Under 18 Champion riding Wild Rose. We are very proud of her achievements.

Ruby is an ever present figure at Thornton Farm and is looking as though she will love horses like the rest of the family. She made her showing debut in 2010 at The Leahurst show finishing a delighted fourth in the handy pony class and in 2011 she qualified her Lead Rein Hunter Pony for both Hickstead and HOYS finishing ninth in both finals.
