Quidam's Pleasure

10/14/2024

Happy Thanksgiving! I want to congratulate the new owner of my beautiful 2 year old filly "With Pleasure" (Olympic van't Koningbos/For Pleasure/Quidam de Revel). This stunning filly has all the makings of a top sport prospect combined with an incredible brain, and excellent x-rays (which is now something I've grown accustomed to from her damline). Selling her into a great home where she will be properly developed is a wonderful thing, but it also comes at a difficult time, as I'm also facing huge vet bills and losses for the sudden death of her uncle Quidam's Pleasure. The breeders life is often rather bleak, amongst small glimmers of hope that keep you going for a little while longer. And, I'd just like to thank everyone over the years that have believed in my small but top quality breeding program, this has been my passion and why I work so hard. I do not know what the future will hold for myself, but for now another one of my babies has landed herself a loving home where she and I are appreciated.

Our 3 year old Quidam’s Pleasure fillies Veel Plezier (QP/Conquest/Pluspunkt) and Vital Pleasure (QP/Lord Pezi/Cordalme) came in off the field for some handling and are getting ready to start training. Both fillies showing their fathers kind eyes and expression.

It’s great to see the oldest offspring of Quidam’s Pleasure starting their jumping careers. I couldn’t be happier that Up Pleasure aka “Queenie” out of Stella Artois (Beaulieu’s Conquest/Papillon Rouge) has Allison Lagan as her owner and rider to develop her to her full potential.

A little message from Allison about her special mare 🥰
“She’s has been incredible!!! I’ve been away the past 2 weeks so she just hangs out while I’m gone , I lunged her for like 5 minutes Monday night , then Tuesday I just got straight on and she was perfect, then yesterday jumped her first vertical and oxer and didn’t put a foot wrong , I’m so so excited about her!”

I'd like to share a recent article on my stallion Quidam's Pleasure and also a little background on myself, my passion for breeding and young horses, as well as my love for BWP and my involvement with the Belgian Warmblood North American District. I hope you enjoy.

(please note the pictures included in the article are of his offspring, unfortunately the captions seem to have missed production)

On International horse day, I'd like to share some beautiful pictures of Quidam's Pleasure from the Royal West in October.

Quidam's Pleasure had a great year in sport and in production with his oldest offspring coming undersaddle. They have athletic light gaits, great rideability and commercial looks. He also produced the #2 ranked BWP/NAD C**t Allegro, and #4 ranked filly Always Pleasing, as well as the Premium CWHBA 2 year old filly Quidams Bliss MSM.

In celebration of his successes, we are offering an early bird special discount of $450 off his 2024 stud fee!! From today until January 15, 2024 you can receive a 2024 fresh breeding contract with 2 year LFG for $1350.00 CAD.

**Discounts available on request during the regular season for repeat breeders, Elite/Premium, and high performance mares**

We are proud to announce that Quidam’s Pleasure is the sire of the #2 c**t, Allegro out of Sonate(Corrado I/Barnaul xx), and the #4 filly, Always Pleasing out of Lisbeth Salander (Lord Pezi/Cordalme) both bred by Bellamy Brook Stables.
A great accomplishment for a young domestically bred stallion from our Belgian Warmblood North American District program in a world full of imports.

Another milestone moment today for Quidam's Pleasure and his production!! Today we took the first set of X-rays all around on one of his oldest offspring. As expected, just like his sire, Unique Pleasure is clean and ocd free!!

This is the true value in using stallions approved by BWP and the Belgian Warmblood North American District. Clear X-rays are the first step in our stallion approval, as OCD finding are often hereditary. We all know good X-rays not only help ensure for long term soundness but also determine the future value and marketability of a young prospect.

Quidam's Pleasure wins his first class, and at 1.30m!! Only his 2nd time this season jumping at this height, and I think only his 4th 1.30m in his short career so far. I’m so pleased with how well he’s jumping. Thank you Katie, you guys make a great team, with a big future ahead!!

Quidam's Pleasure and Katie Laurie are in fine form and ready for 2 weeks of competition at RMSJ next week. Build them bigger, he just jumps higher!!

Quidam’s Pleasure and Katie jumped another beautiful round yesterday at Rocky Mountain Show Jumping in the 1.25m. He’s coming back in shape quickly and will be in form to return to the 1.30m level in August.

07/21/2023

Quidam’s Pleasure and Katie Laurie produced a beautiful clear round today in the 1.20m. Fluffy has come back to the show ring after a very long break (9 months actually, without ever seeing a saddle) fresh, happy and relaxed. I’m a firm believer in giving horses time and I stand confident that it will pay off in spades. Tomorrow he will jump the 1.25.

Thank you Kaitlyn Harbour for the update, and beautiful pictures of your 2022 Elite c**t Wicked Pleasure EEF!!
What a lovely c**t he is growing into. Wicked seems to have also changed color from chestnut to a beautiful bay, with the silver dilute gene that Quidam’s Pleasure carries from his damsire Quidam de Revel.
I am excited to see all these wonderful offspring develop as well as the 3 year olds that start work undersaddle this year.

Quidam’s Pleasure is Horsetelex official!!
With his approval with both BWP/NAD and BWP and his results at the 1.30m level.

Quite an accomplishment for a young 6 year old stallion, that at this time last year had still not competed in the show ring!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!
I'm very proud and thankful to make this special announcement!!
Quidam's Pleasure has earned his permanent stallion licence with Belgian Warmblood North American District and BWP by completing his performance requirements!!
This is a great accomplishment being one of only 3 Canadian born BWP/NAD stallions to earn this, and the 1st for Western Canada. The BWP Studbook holds one of the strictest standards for stallion approval, and stallions must perform in sport with clear rounds at the appropriate age categories to achieve this. BWP/NAD follows the guidelines of BWP as closely as possible to the maintain the same standards as the #1 Studbook in the World, BWP!!

I would also like to thank all the people that led me on this journey.
First with Dirk Zagers, if not for your help in acquiring his wonderful dam Greetings from Quidam, who was already in foal to For Pleasure with her first one, we would not be here now.
To Chris Larmee Sallee, who has been a great support in this journey through the many ups and downs, and to Boudewijn Schepers for your truly unbiased opinion of the horses and for your friendship, to my rider Katie Laurie you are amazing, there's nothing else to say. To all my mare owners for believing in Fluffy from an early age and bringing your quality mares to my young stallion. The proof has been in the pudding. Of his offspring presented for Inspection, the majority have earned Elite Predicate and the others, nothing less than First Premium!!

Thanks again to all, and to those interested in breeding to Quidam's Pleasure in 2023, please stay tuned for some early bird and performance mare discounts, as well as updated pictures and freejumping footage of his current stock.
