Sale Horses - Jort

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 Z level (see photos above of Jort competing at a z level competition in holland), which is comparable to our 3rd level, without the changes. Our friend, Wendy, has done a fantastic job of training and competing with Jort at Z 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 he has started flying changes!!!! 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:)

On his papers, it says Jort's height was 162 cm when he was 3 years old, but he sure has grown a lot since then----he now measures 16.3 hands!!! This is one very good looking, well built gelding with a nice 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.

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.
