Tjeerd, 1st Premie, 3 yrs, 16.1 hds
Tjeerd is a 3 yr old STER stallion with stunning looks and impressive movement! He achieved a 1st Premie and made his STER title with flying colors against much older stallions in the same class! He would be equally suited as a halter show-horse.
He is an elegant, modern Sporthorse-type Friesian with a beautiful head. Tjeerd has just been started under saddle. He is currently walking, trotting and cantering in both directions freely with a rider. We started him carefully and correctly here at Windermere Farms. His topline/balance was correctly developed before he was mounted for the first time. He is 100% comfortable with a rider and stands freely and quietly to be mounted and dismounted. He moves entirely supple and relaxed with a rider and shows already amazing balance. You are viewing his 3rd time with a rider in these photos here!
Tjeerd is a bold and confident young stallion. His movement will guarantee a successful career in the show-ring. His natural engagement from behind is truly outstanding! This is a young stallion with a 'big rear engine'! Just look at all the attached photos.....
He is a super intelligent young stallion, eager to learn with lots of go and a lovely attentive personality to match.
Tjeerd is also excellently bred: Gerlof's powerful movement combined with Sjaard's modern mechanik! He was measured at 1,64m (16.0-16.1 hds) at the judging and he is barely 3 yrs old. Tjeerd will be tall! He is sold with a recent, full set of super clean (class 1) x-rays.
A true opportunity for a discriminate buyer! SOLD
Verdi, 9 yrs, 16.1 hds
Verdi is everything one can dream of in a Friesian stallion! He not only shows very baroque looks with an enormous amount of hair, but he also combines it with big, highly elastic Sporthorse movement very suitable for the dressage arena. A combination that is extremely rare to find in the Friesian world!
His character is impeccable! We know Verdi since he was a baby (in Germany) and he was raised with the utmost love and care, which then was continued by his American owner.
Verdi's bloodlines are equally superb: he is an Anton son, out of a Model mare, showing unbroken Ster + Preferent lines throughout his entire pedigree.
His personality clearly reflects the care and love he received throughout his life. He is extremely personable and gentle.
Verdi goes currently at app. 1st level dressage and has been trail ridden. He loves to work and moves freely forward!
He was recently x-rayed and fully clinically vet checked. His x-rays are 100% clean. So are his flexion tests. A reflexion of his elastic movement. A stallion that is 100% sound physically and mentally!
Verdi is without a doubt the epitome of Friesian Majesty combining looks, movement, soundness and superb breeding! SOLD
4 yrs, 16.2 hds, Nanno X Leffert (unbroken Ster+lines)
Hindrik is likely the most talented dressage Friesian we ever had at Windermere Farms!
Hindrik is with us for approximately eight months now and has tremendously progressed in his development and his performance! At this early age his extended trot is already suitable to let any German Warmblood look 'pale'.
Hindrik very readily offers flying changes and his counter canter is almost fully established. This young stallion is not only ideally build uphill with a strong, short coupled back, but he also has the talent and most important the work curious, enthusiastic work ethic to go all the way to FEI levels. (This is confirmed by FEI trainers, and only my personal opinion)! Short: this is a truly exceptional opportunity for a truly serious dressage rider who knows what he/she is looking for! HIndrik moves readily off the leg and is rideable without any physical effort.
This stallion is very light i n his movement, and light in his contact. He is solely ridden in a double jointed Mylar snaffle and he has CORRECT, solid training. He was moved along carefully but targeted, accompanied by regular cranio sacral body work, to ensure his utmost comfort and suppleness. Hindrik's personality is priceless. He is a trooper out on trails and very courageous and curious in any situation. The material a true showhorse is made of!
His track record is as stunning as Hindrik himself. He was Holland's FPS Champion colt in 2002 and achieved since, 1st Premies and a Ster title. His pedigree is equally impressive with unbroken Ster+Pref. (and better) lines throughout. He is sold with a full set of 26 clan x-rays. (Hindrik is not a horse for a novice dressage rider. For more novice riders we recommend the beautiful stallion Ben Amos, shown below. This stallion is more experienced (6 yrs) and very calm and patient in his overall disposition.) Videos are available against a $20.00 deposit to serious potential buyers. More, brand new photos of Hindrik under the saddle will follow shortly.SOLD
5 Years, 16.3 hands. Anton x Oepke
ONCE IN A LIFETIME......is probably the term that best describes this Friesian Dream Stallion! We know Werby since he was born in Germany (FPS/Dutch registered) and have watched him grow up with lots of love and care. His personality and beauty reflect his protected upbringing. We imported and sold Werby in 2002 yet a lifestyle change of his owner makes stallion ownership difficult at this point. We are proud to welcome this fabulous stallion at Windermere Farms again!
Werby shows a superior pedigree with unbroken Ster+Preferent and Model lines. His sire is the super attractive and highly sought after FPS stallion Anton! Werby has breathtaking looks and the presence to go along with it. His personality is impeccable. Werby holds a second premie and goes currently at app. 1st level dressage, yet with the athletic potential for much, much more. A tall, versatile Dream Stallion for the discriminate owner! SOLD
Fabian
Coming 3-years-old, currently 16.1 hds (will mature no less than 16.3 hands). This young stallion was very well bred and raised with the utmost care and attention here at Windermere Farms. Our purest product, so to speak, and we believe it shows in his very athletic built and his amazing disposition! Fabian is bred out of the tall and elegant Ster mare Marije Ant (shown in our photo gallery -Anton bloodlines!) Fabian was very recently, calmly and correctly, started under saddle - without the presence of a 2nd person.
This young stallion is 100% trusting and therefore calm and relaxed. He did not require a 2nd person to hold him even for being mounted for the 1st time. He stood quietly and patiently -entirely voluntarily. Fabian moved supple and comfortable from day 1 under saddle without any fear! He is now even safe to be ridden 10' from a mare in heat at this young age.
We consider his cooperation absolutely impeccable for a young stallion of barely age three! You are viewing the photos of our third ride on the website. Please judge for yourself...Fabian has a strong, ideal conformation and beautiful movement, very suitable for competitive dressage and an especially nice walk worth pointing out. He meanwhile also canters effortless under saddle and in addition proudly and playfully displays his Spanish Walk. A very young stallion; yet already showing all the regal, masculine beauty of the Friesian breed, an excellent pedigree and a disposition to die for - with a training status Dutch imports dream of!
