With the exciting news that Glamourdale is going to the Olympics, we decided to take our handsome c**t out to play today 2.5 months old.
Ultimate Best - 2024 KWPN/NA c**t by Glamourdale out of Elite mare Dolce Vita (Jazz, Pref. x Houston, Keur). He is a genetic powerhouse and he is SUPER! When you know, you know!

Proud to announce Sassypants earned the KWPN PROK predicate based on the quality of her X-rays. She was renamed My Sassalina to follow her mother-line and to reflect the more mature outlook on life she has now that she’s grown up. She may always be my Sassypants but she’s a nice representation of the mother-line and deserved a name that reflects the quality. ❤️

When your highly regarded veterinarian refers to your foal as “spectacular” and “exquisite” more than once, it’s safe to say we have a good one!
Ultimate Best - 2024 c**t by Glamourdale out of Dolce Vita, Elite (Jazz, Pref. x Houston, Keur). He is available.

Bittersweet watching the babies leave knowing the amount of time it takes to get to this point. We pick a stallion, breed and get a pregnancy (not always easy!), wait 11 months for the mare to foal out a healthy foal and then watch patiently as they grow up. Sergeant Major’s Best (Gaudí x Jazz x Houston) is on his way to his owner in Georgia. We had the privilege of raising him for nearly 2 years and are proud of this gentleman as he walked onto the trailer in spite of his momma losing her mind in the field right next to the trailer! Looking forward to watching him and his owner shine in the future! Safe travels Sarge! We will miss you!

So proud of our homebred 2017 Olympic Ferro mare “Peanut”! She earned her PROK from KWPN today based on her clean X-rays that were approved with flying colors. This is a predicate that recognizes quality/clean X-rays.
This was Dolly’s last foal - nice way to end her breeding career. Peanut is ready to start in a serious program to continue her development. 🎉

Love this update featuring our homebred 2020 gelding Pawling’s Best (Special D x Avelina, Ster). He looks fantastic at 3 years old! Compliments to owner - Dr. Jeannette Lippy, DVM.

What’s not to love about this gelding?

2021 KWPN/NA gelding - Rambeaux
Sire: Bordeaux, Keur, Pref.
Dam: Dolce Vita, Elite (Keur + PROK + points)

This is a top quality young horse born and bred in the US. He has similar bloodlines to the approved KWPN stallion Las Vegas who is by the Bordeaux son Ferdeaux out of a Wynton mare (who is by Jazz) and granddam sire Houston.

“Rambo” is beautifully built, uphill, balanced and a fantastic mover - lightfooted and powerful - springy with a natural ability to sit! With top performers on both sides of his pedigree, this guy is destined for the big ring!

Sire:
Bordeaux was proclaimed Keur last year based on the quality and success of his offspring, as well as his own performance. He is by United x Gribaldi x Donnerhall. He is a very consistent producer and I can see why people love him! He personally competed up through Grand Prix at just 12 years old in 2018 (& again in 2019) and he is sire to numerous international competitors and offspring that have achieved top sports results with KWPN, German Oldenburg and Hanoverian. This is a TOP stallion and not easy to find in the US.

Dam:
Dolce Vita, Elite (prov keur + PROK) is by Jazz, Pref x Houston, Keur. She was an inspection site champion mare and invited to the Central Keuring in the Netherlands where she finished in the top 15 of all mares in the country. She competed successfully through Z1 level, combined with prov. Keur and PROK earned her the Elite mare title. She comes from a long line of highly predicated mares. She has only produced a few foals so far - 3 of which can be seen at my farm (by Secret, Bordeaux and Gaudí). This mareline has produced several competitors including Dolce Vita’s sibling - who is dam to Ashley Holzer’s sadly deceased former Grand Prix mount Mango Eastwood (both mares are out of the same Dam, Marillion)

This stallion is incredible and Big Momma is in foal to him. It’s going to be a long wait! There is no doubt the foal will be special!

It is so rewarding to see foals we breed competing successfully. This 8yo mare has been beautifully developed by owner/trainer Jason Racey. By Keur dressage stallion out of our jumper mare, she really has it all and she looks phenomenal! Her 2017 sibling by Olympic Ferro is available!

Even as a baby you can see Secretariat was special.

Baby Secretariat!

Sammy arrived safely at his new home upstate NY and his owner is thrilled with how nicely he handled the trip. He calmly walked off the trailer into his new barn and quickly started eating his hay and drinking water. Special thanks to Morrissey’s for a safe and uneventful haul, Perfecto for keeping everything under control and Rob for the extra calm help. Another great Schroeder x Avelina c**t to watch in the future!

Update on 2019 gelding Olliver’s Best (Schroeder x Avelina, Ster). Super windy day for a ride on a young horse and he looked like a pro after only 60 days under saddle! Now he gets a well deserved break for the winter. What a good boy and great job bringing him along by his owner Rebecca! -na

People are often surprised that my horses don’t wear shoes and have beautiful hooves. It’s simple - they were never ruined. They’re raised on imperfect ground (sometimes hard, sometimes softer) and their hooves and bodies grow strong because if it.

The barefoot movement is growing amongst top professional riders worldwide, and finally a comprehensive Swedish research project is to determine exactly why there are so many benefits from ditching your horse’s iron shoes and going barefoot instead.

Our 5yo Olympic Ferro mares are slowly growing up and even learning to enjoy a trail ride! So nice to see each of them gain confidence and go out on a trail ride alone!

24/09/2022

The babies had their 1st road trip and handled it pretty well! Good job Sammy and Sargie!

Foal #2 was born tonight at 9:05pm. Its a c**t and he’s a full sibling to our 2019 KWPN/Na champion Olliver’s Best (Schroeder x Olivi, Keur x Olympic Lancet). So grateful for another textbook foaling for 2022! Now it’s bedtime!

He’s here and he’s huge! I missed posting on foaling day (born on Sunday night - Fathers Day, 6/19 at 10:40pm). Both mare and foal are hitting all their milestones so far! More on Monday!

Foal watch begins… power washed the mare’s stalls and cameras are being put to good use. 1st up - Dolce Vita, Elite (Jazz x Houston). Anxiously awaiting her Gaudi foal (he is Totilas x Deniro). She is getting close!
