Trude is our beautiful Ster mare. She produces  the most stunning foals. She has had her first ster filly, who was reserve champion three year old at the central mare show in holland in 2015, gaining first premie ster PROVISIONAL KROON at only 3 years old! That filly is by Thorben 466 Double Sport predicate. Trude has had another Thorben filly, Tessa, who was sold to a dressage rider to become her next star.  Trude also has two Barock Pinto offspring, we are excited to see how these younger offspring do at their respective gradings. 

Trude has helped us with our Barock Pinto breeding programme and had a stunning BP colt in May 2020.  That colt Koris fan Fraithwen was graded at the Barock Pinto stallions gradings in Assen in March 2023 and becaime the first ever, and currently the only approved breeding stallion that was bred in the UK. He has now gone to a driving career with  his new owner who has followed him since birth.

Jade is our very special FIRST PREMIE STER 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.
