At public stud for an introductory stud fee of £350 for 2010 only.

Our 3 yr old KWPN stallion was awarded full license status at his grading in April this year with the Anglo European Studbook grading in Solihull.

He was the only dressage stallion to receive the highly coveted licensed status usually reserved for stallions competing in their age classes.
The director of the AES studbook Henk Minderman commented “now that is a dressage horse” and later stated that he has the paces & presence to go to Grand Prix!

This young man has amazing movement, outstanding hock action coupled with extreme elevation in all paces, he will find piaffe & pirouette work effortless and we have high hopes for this young man.  He also lives on a mixed yard and is a lovely horse to handle.
