"Macho" was one of the great show horses chosen for the show/exhibition," Black Pearls of Rhythms"!!

Macho (registered as Minne van 't Speyksbosch) is a REALLY nice, well trained, 7 yr old STER gelding.

He was in Leeuwarden at the stallion keuring in  Jan 2008, where he advanced to the second round of the approved stallion selection process.  The FPS studbook approved his x-ray and semen report, before advancing him on, as a 3 yr old STER stallion.

Now a gelding,  Macho is sired by the one and only, VERY well respected  approved stallion, Beart, who is  one of Jasper's most impressive sons. Macho is TALL. His official dressage show record indicates  he has 20 points in L2. He has shown 3 times in 3rd level dressage ( Z level) with 203 points. His combination  number (for his show record) is 514383MJ.

His pedigree is truly TOP NOTCH, with a motherline chock full of "ster" and "preferent" predicates:

STER-STER+PREF-STER+PREF-STER+PREF

This TALL imported STER gelding is truly a magnificent animal. Impeccably bred. Trained 3rd level dressage, AND he has extensive experience showing in quadrilles, parades, and exhibitions. He is also very suitable as a trail companion! You won't find a nicer, better trained, easier to sit friesian gelding anywhere.

He really is a good mover..very good walk, his trot has HUGE potential for passage... good canter, easy on the aids...the lateral work is solid, he does the exercises easily.....he has already started piaffe..

This gelding is impressive, receiving high scores from judges that usually prefer warmbloods! He has been competing successfully up through the levels in Europe, and is ready to help you achieve your goals, whether they are to ride on the beach without being scared, or help you earn your USDF gold medal.  He has three superior gaits with a very uphill suspended trot. Beautiful lateral work and has just started flying changes.

This is a very uncomplicated horse with an amazing temperament. A amateur or novice rider' s DREAM horse!  Macho would also be suitable for a junior or young rider, due to his very easy going, "willing to please" nature.

And she is a fantastic all around pleasure horse, so you just might want to venture into the showring with Alberta.  She will not last long at this LOW price!

Everyone is looking for this kind of mare....beautiful, ideal conformation, willing to work and NOT lazy, and bred to a stallion available only in Europe, Michiel, with an March, 2012 due date.

This 5 yr old imported from Holland pregnant mare is double trained to ride AND drive!!!

Ytsje is a stunning daughter of the highly respected Approved Stallion, Monte, and she carries RARE old bloodlines that are difficult to duplicate these days. Ytsje's dam's sire is Olof, one of our most favorite Approved stallion of all time. It is said that the QUALITY of a Friesian mare is in her MOTHERLINE-and the ability of that motherline to pass on superb traits and characteristics. Ytsje's motherline obviously produces TOP TOP quality offspring, her motherline is exceptional! 

Not only is Ytsje a tremendous riding and driving horse for the entire family, she is a PROVEN producer and good mother. She is easy to get pregnant, and has no difficulties foaling on her own! With a LOW in-breeding co-efficiency, you can breed Ytsje to just about anyone.

A super attractive family horse enjoying attention and reciprocating in the most friendly "horse" way, while providing a valuable investment with secure return....A mare that will bring joy AND give you a foal in 2012! Ytsje was confirmed 5 months pregnant on her vetcheck, performed on  Sept 19, 2011.

Ate is Janna's favorite Friesian  horse EVER. He was M2 Dressage Champion on Holland with judith peterson before  Ron and Janna noticed him performing an exhibition at the stallion show in Leeawarden--- and followed him back to the barn, both  more excited about him than any of the approved stallions!

He is supple and fluid in all 3 gaits with a superior walk, and an electrifying extended trot!  He moves under himself with strong rear propulsion and impressive style. 

This boy is the TOTAL PACKAGE: elegant, baroque, short backed with prominent withers, jet black coat, hair that is PAST his knees, tippy ears, and expressive eyes on a chiseled head.  His character is gentle yet alert with an amazing eagerness to please "his person."

Ate has won numerous world and national championships since the Goldman's imported him as Janna's personal show horse several years ago. 

He  has been  Am Huntseat World and National Champion, Reserve Second Level Dressage National Champion, and in october, 2010, --- he walked away from the IFSHA World Grand Nationals  with 4 championship titles including:

World Grand Champion Am English Show Hack

World and National Champion Am Dressage Show Hack

Ate is confirmed in ALL exercises at 3rd level, including flying changes--which is  very rare for a friesian!  He not only has the amazing fairytale looks with hair galore, he has retained that jet black coat ---looking like a stallion, instead of a bleached out gelding!

He has been on literally hundreds of trail rides, and he loves him time outside the arena. He is also an amazing driving horse, winning as a sjees driving horse when in holland.  Janna has even started teaching him to neck rein, just so he can compete in an occasional western class, as well!

Truly one of the MOST TALENTED dressage friesians available anywhere, Ate is not cheap, and will go to an approved home only.

He is well balanced and has an amazingly strong topline, and NO health issues, ever. His balanced conformation with hind legs that reach well under his body, have allowed this horse to move quickly and easily up the levels----this is a rare opportunity to own an FEI level friesian, with a temperament that makes him appropriate for an amateur or junior rider. He has that rare ability to collect AND extend, AND beat the warmbloods with friesian flair:)

To an approved home only. EXPENSIVE.

His name is Jort van 't Spoorzicht, and he is one NICE sporthorse by Fabe x Foppe.

Jort is not only a very sweet and easy to ride 7 year old gelding, he is showing Z2 level (see photos above of Jort competing at a z2 level competition in holland), which is comparable to our 3rd- 4th level, with flying changes! Our friend, Wendy, has done a fantastic job of training and competing with Jort at Z2 level----we have loved EVERY sporthorse Wendy has trained. She brings young dressage horses along slowly and methodically, making sure the basics are covered, before the upper level work is begun.

She says Jort is really soft in his mouth, forward going and well trained. His canter is very easy, and uphill. Jort is confirmed in half pass at trot, shoulder in, haunches in, and travers.... AND his flying changes are now confirmed!!!! He is absolutely very kind and sweet. Not a pushy or jumpy sporthorse! Overall, anyone that spends time with Jort remarks on what a nice horse he is to work with:)

Jort measures 16.1 hands. This is one very good looking, well built gelding with a nice long mane and tail. And for you dressage enthusiasts, Jort can be ridden by a novice rider. Wendy's 13 year old cousin also rides Jort--he is amateur friendly! He is also safe and well behaved in traffic and out on trails.

This is a RARE gelding with the SPORT predicate, and he is only 7 years old!!! How many 7 yr old SPORT friesian geldings are there in the US with winning points in Z2 dressage?  We can answer that... none! And very few friesians have earned the coveted SPORT predicate, which stands on Jort's papers, for his accomplishments in upper level dressage.

This sweet gelding comes with a thorough pre-purchase exam, and 22 xrays are available for review with your vet. 

This is a rare opportunity to own a beautiful and accomplished horse who is very nice to work with AND exceptionally sweet!  He is certainly not lazy, but Jort IS appropriate for less experienced riders. He is also double trained to drive.

Here is a highly elastic dressage horse. Jort shows lots of tact and rhythm in his performance. His canter is beautifully 'uphill', and Jort is EASY for all levels of riders....a push button horse that YOU can learn dressage from. Bred to be a winner and 1st premie as a foal, Jort is entirely uncomplicated. A very novice rider will feel quite comfortable riding him, inside and out, with no difficulties whatsoever. His relaxed personality made us fall in love with him, and if you are looking for a taller well trained friesian, and proven sporthorse----look no further.

Jort is your man.

Jort has won LOTS and LOTS of blue ribbons!!! !!

His combination number for his show record in Europe is: 413618JB
