Jade fan de Groenesteegh
special-at-english-inspection-jade-stendert-447-with-five-offspring
Jade is our very special FIRST PREMIE STER PREF *5 mare.
She was born 2011 and had first foal Annalise in 2016 with us. Our aim, as with Trude, is to breed the best foals we possibly can to get our mares to preferent status. Jade is by Stendert 447 SPORT. The lineage on Stendert's dam's side is extremely strong and he has arguably one of the best pedigrees of the studbook. Stendert shows scope, regularity and elasticity in all three paces, with the hind leg placed nicely underneath his body. He presents a super outline in walk, trot as well as canter and uses his back in an exemplary fashion.
She is negative for hydrocephalis and dwarfism.
Jades dams sire is Sjaard 320.
Jade has a lovely linear score with 102 and 104 for walk, 104 and 104 for trot, 105 for balance and 104 for elasticity.
Jade is an excellent mother. `Her first filly Annalise fan Fraithwen is by 2016 WORLD CHAMPION stallion TSJALLE 454 SPORT ELITE PREFERENT
Jade foaled a stunning colt Eelke, also by Tsjalle on 2ND January 2017. He lives here with us and is Gaynors main riding horse, hes very special and an utter dream to look at.
Both Annalise and Eelke achieved Ster status at their adult gradings.
Jades third foal was the 2019 UK SUPREME CHAMPION FRIESIAN, filly Jeldau fan Fraithwen, (Jehannes 484 Sport elite) born in 2019 and champion that same year.
At the 2021 keurings were proud to show all 5 of Jades offspring (to that date) at the same Keuring (grading).

Jeldau gained 2nd premie 2 yr old and won her class

Senna fan Scyedam
Senna is a new mare we imported from Netherlands in August 2025. She is a huge mare (Boet 516/Doaitsen 420) and is ster AA currently. She is ride and drive and is in foal to the twice KFPS champion stallion Jeppe 537. Senna is an absolute poppet and loves human interaction just like our other horses. Ian hacks her with Gaynor riding Eelke and shes given him his confidence back after a serious injury (not horse related!) Ian also drives her and she is equally willing and happy in both jobs.
Pip van de Keizershoeve
Pip is our Jurre 495/Tsjalle 454 STER mare who we imported in October 2024. Shes a very sweet ride and drive mare who is in foal for 2026. She has a beautiful filly foal by Kanne 534 in 2025.
