8 Year Old Gelding 16.2 hands Jillis 301 X Ulke 338
Isadoro is a DROP DEAD GORGEOUS Z level (3rd level) dressage gelding. Isadoro's sire is approved FPS stallion Jillis, an important Friesian stallion by Jochum. His offspring are very black with very good hair. Jillis produces impressive offspring for both dressage and driving, and Isadoro is no exception.
He is TALL....168 cm (16.2 hands!) and has a really nice full mane and forelock. Isadoro is solid on 3rd level dressage exercises and has the points to PROVE it, consistently scoring above 65%.
B-Day: 5/30/02
This boy has a lot of experience in showing dressage, and he is GOOD at it! He is not spooky at all, and has a great personality. He knows shoulder in, haunches in, turn around the haunches, counter canter, simple changes, rein back, half pass in trot and canter, and he has a very good extended trot, and is training flying changes.
Isadoro is very mellow in character and easy to ride, even a child can ride him. He's one that you can honestly buy and just start enjoying right away!!!!
He is a real eyecatcher! He trailers with ease, and is qualified to start showing in Z2 dressage. For the last year, he has been shown by a 15 yr old that is only a 2nd level rider----so Isadoro has been a bit of a schoolmaster for his young rider! This is a horse you can just put a beginner and he will do the rest. He is a VERY good horse to learn from.
We are looking for a nice home for this sweet, wonderful horse. Isadoro was only sold to us because his young rider is going away to school.
ONCE IN A LIFETIME......is probably the term that best describes this Friesian hard to find, Z Level, Dream Gelding. We are proud to offer this fabulous gelding! Isadoro flexes nicely and is solid on his lateral work. Overall, he has a very laid back character with impeccably polite ground manners, but he likes to work, and this boy can MOVE!
Isadoro sports a beautiful small head and lots of hair .....he is the picture perfect Dream Friesian! He isn't JUST for dressage......Isadoro is also a perfect gentleman out on the trail or on long hacks, and wins the heart of everyone that rides him.

6 Year Old STER Gelding 16.0 hands Time 398 X Lolke 371
Marco is an amazing find... a LONG haired, fairytale looking 6 yr old STER gelding, with winning points in L dressage.
We just had Marco thoroughly vetted and x-rayed, and he was perfect.
We called also the KNHS to verify his dressage show record, and they told us that Marco, in fact, has 4 winning points in L Level dressage, which, in other words, means this boy has scored ABOVE 60% in First Level dressage, and is excellent third party verification that he is showing and scoring well in dressage:)
As you can see from the photos above of the former owner's son sitting on Marco bareback, he is a VERY friendly, uncomplicated, safe horse. He is also a real eye-catcher and very very sweet and quiet.
Not only does he have winning points in L level dressage, he is also trained to pull a carriage.
Looking for that DREAM friesian with fairytale appeal--- Marco has a mane that is more than 1 meter long!! And the vet measured him at 165 cm tall when he did his vetcheck last week.
Here is an athletic, expressive STER gelding with super smooth gaits. He goes easily forward, and has a soft mouth. We think Marco is quiet enough for an adult amateur, beginner or child, and he is also husband proof. You will love your time in the saddle on this very sweet and fun to ride ster gelding-- he will take you to the moon!!
Don't miss this very special imported dressage friesan, with the rare dressage show experience, and the talent & presence to move up the levels quickly. Perhaps more importantly, you won't find a sweeter, kinder, more giving horse anywhere. He WANTS to please, and he is safe, safe, safe, and adores going out on long trail rides or hacks.
Marco is double trained to ride AND drive. He comes with a thorough pre purchase and x-rays available for review with your vet.
This is what dream's are made of..... |

5 Year Old Gelding 16.1 hands Doaitsen 420 X Otte 375
Pajero is a very flashy Friesian gelding that is VERY reasonably priced. He shows the same athleticism as his father, Doaitsen, and there are very few Doaitsen offspring in the US. They are known for their long swan necks, and incredible movement--- and as you can see, Pajero takes after his daddy--- look at that neck! Pajeros dam's sire, Otte, who is no longer living, was well known for his superior temperament and willingness to work.
Pajero is one of those RARE friesians that has the "goods" that make a top sporthorse--- be it in dressage OR saddleseat, yet the disposition and character that has given the friesian breed the nick name, "gentle giant". He is a delight to be around and is very brave and eager to learn and please his rider. He will excel in any discipline but especially in dressage and he loves going out on the trail. Very few horses can excel in multiple divisions, but this is a horse that is not only spectacular going dressage....he could also be a winning saddleseat horse, because of his upright and long swan neck!
He has no vices, is 100% sound, and is up-to-date on his shots, shoeing and worming.
Pajero is really a fancy imported Friesian with a reasonable price tag. He has incredible cadence and elasticity, and the well known easy going temperament that has made the Friesian the IDEAL horse for the amateur rider. His ground skills are exceptional--loading, clipping, vetting, bathing etc., he is a perfect gentleman.
You will love his 3 good gaits. He has a great walk, a big smooth trot, and a nice forward, rocking canter. He picks up his leads well, and has wonderful transitions.
This is a BIG gelding with LOTS of mane, who could also be a fancy trail horse, for his lucky new owner.
Pajero is PROOF that fairytales DO COME TRUE, and he JUST ARRIVED FROM EUROPE!
*** In the photos above with two horses on a trail, Pajero has the female rider. |

1 Year Old Mare hands Sibald 380 X wander 352
Faxon is a deep black Friesian filly whose coat resists fading even though she spends time in the sun every day.
She is by Sibald out of a full papered Wander x Tsjerk x Oege mare. Oege is known as the "hair man", he nearly always passes on long long hair--and he is our favorite approved stallion of all time. Oege Pref is no longer living. Faxon ties, leads, loads into the trailer, enjoys baths, hoof trimming, and being caught by people.
She has truly beautiful conformation and excellent feet; she is lovely in every way. This filly has lots of common sense and she is a quick learner.
She is really a great yearling filly.... One of our favorites! Her registered name is Famke, which means “Little Girl” in Dutch. This mare conformation is really superb-- and boy, is she gonna be TALL, with a momma well over 16 hands.
The last 3 photos listed above are of Faxon's mother.
Faxon's mother, Namke Siduna, is by Wander (the stallion featured in the movie "Bedazzled" with Brandon Frazier), and she is out of a dam by Tsjerk and a grand dam by Oege-Pref. Namke Siduna's bloodlines are a combination of three great stallions that are known to compliment one another in a pedigree.
And, as one would expect of this combination of sires, Namke's daughter, Faxon, is a great beauty with three long striding and powerful gaits. Namke is more than full papered, and from stam 50. This stam is sometimes referred to as "the winningest stam line" because there are more champions of keurings, champions of shows, model mares, and approved stallions from this stam line than from any other.
Faxon, meaning "long hair" in German, is registered as Famke fan Morningstar
Motherline: Stb-STER-STER+PREF-STER+PREF
Note, Faxon's Great grandmother had 6 offspring that became STER and Great Great Grandmother had 9 offspring that became STER---- this is one prolific motherline full of STER predicates, indicative of high quality!!!
Already registered and microchipped, up to date on vaccinations and worming.
This one will NOT last!

5 Year Old Mare 16.1 hands Olrik 383 X Fabe 348
A few weeks ago, Rihanna became a ster-mare, with a VERY good I-BOP performance, making this tall, long haired 5 yr old mare a full pedigree STER MARE.
We are very exciting about her, and can't wait to show her at the Friesian Grand Nationals, in Del Mar, in October.
This is a one of kind friesian that will be a REAL star, for her lucky new owner.
We will be showing, and accumulating wins, with Rihanna (on the west coast), until sold. This is a horse we are PROUD to own and show!!!!
She is a WOW.
This mare has spectacular gaits and floating trot! Absolutely sound and scopey.
Rihanna is like the pop star she is named after---- an unbelievable HIT!
Flashy gaits and easy to sit. Hot without being spooky. Forward off the aids, but very sensible.
Talent for the upper levels!!!
This is a very special horse with strong FEI potential and the talent and presence for the show ring... not to mention the ability for return on investment, with future foals out of this STER mare.
Pedigree: Rihanna is STER -her mother is STER-and grandmother is STER
Naturally forward and loves to work. Also great on trail.
Horse of a lifetime!
Registered as Sietske fan 'e Seadwei
In Breeding a LOW 1.95%
B-day: 6/2/05
Measured 164 cm as a 4 yr old, and is now TALLER!
Rihanna stems from Stam line 8, the SAME line that produced the approved stallions Sierk 326 and Maeije 440.

1 Year Old Stallion hands Anne 340 X Ludse 305
D'Artagnan- Friesian yearling stallion colt
- foaled April 26th, 2009.
-Attended keuring in September, 2009, where he received a 2nd premie
-sired by the approved stallion, Anne
The most amazing thing about D'Artagnon is his incredible movement! He literally floats above the ground with a lightness that is pure beauty in motion!
His long legs produce a long, elegant stride and his extremely active hind end gives him enormous natural propulsion. As a dressage rider, I am very excited about this stallion! Aside from his Ster/breeding potential in the Friesian world, this is a stallion that will have the movement, conformation and the mind to excel to impressive levels in the dressage arena!
D'Artagnon is a son of the approved stallion, Anne. Anne's mother-line is comprised of star/star preferent, model/model preferent which have been known for their performance and fertility. Approved on his offspring in 2000, Anne is noted for producing a luxurious horse with a beautiful head, great extension, strong impulsion and a fantastic trot. Anne's ability to pass on this combination of performance excellence and stellar character made him a top breeding stallion in The Netherlands.
Anne was third overall at the stallion show in 2000. He also earned top honors in his class besting the stallions, Teunis and Tsjerk. Anne is an intelligent stallion with a tremendous presence. He is a top level dressage competitor shown with great success by Sabine von de Kolk.
D'Artagnon has an amazing sweet nature, super pedigree, and ideal conformation and super movement.
Looking for a reasonably priced friesian stallion, already registered and microchipped? D'Artagnon is your man, and he is already 17 months old, and priced like a weanling:)

3 Year Old STER Mare 16.0 hands Mintse 384 X Oepke 266
In Foal To Wobke_403 Wieteke H. 3 year old pregnant Ster mare.
Mintse x Oepke
Her pedigree is very special. Not only is she STER, her mother is ster+preferent, her grandmother is VB, great grandmother is ster, great great grandmother ster, and great great great grandmother is model.
The studbook is really interested in this bloodline because it is a highly productive line:
The mother to Wieteke has already produced 5 ster children; 2 x 1st premium ster mares, of which one was the overall champion at the biggest Friesian keuring in Holland (her name is Silke) and 3 x 2nd premium ster mares. She also had a champion foal.
Silke, the champion mare (a sister to Wieteke) had a stud colt that was selected to go to the 70 day stallion test as a 3 yr old stallion......So here is an example where we can see that the studbook doesn't mind the 'veulenboek mare' in this outstanding pedigree.
Besides the stallion that went to the 70 day test, Silke also had a 'Kroon' mare. Her name is Silvia H.
And it doesn't end there.....Silvia, in turn, had a 1st premium colt this year.
Wieteke is a very sweet and friendly mare. She is intelligent and willing to work.
She is trained to ride and she drives!
She is not only a gorgeous breeding mare, but also a very beautiful sports mare. She has an extremely thick tail and a very long mane and forelock, for a 3 yr old!!!!
This will be one outstanding dressage partner for some lucky rider.
The Judges measured Wieteke at the keuring and said she was 162 cm tall. But currently she is already 163/164 cm ( over 16 hands).
Wieteke is in foal to Wobke 403. Wobke is an AMAZING 1st premie STER approved stallion competing at Z2 level ( 4th Level) in Europe.
This is a tremendous 2 for 1 value on a spectacular imported STER mare.
** Price INCLUDES Import and Quarantine to Los Angeles, NY, Mexico or Canada**

0 Year Old Stallion hands Teade 392 X Bendert 281
This is a colt with a wonderful mind, that is such a joy to handle. He is a total snuggle bunny, brave, forward and kind.
His full brother was 2nd Premium Reserve Champion of his Inspection and his full sister was called into the ring for Reserve Champion but lost the title to a late entry that was allowed to present. She was also a 2nd Premium foal.
He has that gorgeous, thick, masculine Teade neck. Legs are straight - nice shoulder - active hind. He has a small chiseled head.
He is micro chipped and will be presented at the keuring this fall.
His dam is intelligent to a fault. She opens gates, takes off her halter and everyone elses. He is showing that he has her brains. He is bold, confident and kind. Not flighty but spirited. This colt is going to be an amazing horse for someone.
The best mind we have ever seen. He will thrive in any environment that gives him a job. He has soooooo much potential.....this one is special.
He takes correction very well and only needs it one time. He really is smart.
This young colt will grab your heart. He is pretty - much like his father, Teade, but perhaps a tad more refined; it is the mind of this horse that makes him stand out. He is a thinker-- the world is Harmon's oyster! He will learn anything you teach him.
We like the babies to develop bone density and coordination so Harmon has free access to exercise in the pasture, where he is kept.
Harmon's blood work came back good and he is on a regular deworming program. And he is up to date on vaccinations.
His full brother was Reserve Champion Colt in Santa Rosa at the keuring. The last picture above is a picture of Harmon's dam and his full brother by Teade.
