Sandro Son loves attention, he’s always the first wanting to be caught and to come into the yard. I expect him to be a kind and very trainable horse to produce and he would be equally suited to an amateur dressage rider as a pro. I can’t say enough good things about this horse, he really is just lovely and whoever choses him won’t be disappointed. They will have a best friend for life I am sure!

Sire - Foundation

After many wins in L-level dressage classes Foundation qualified for the Bundeschampionat in Warendorf.

Foundation's sire is the 2004 NRW Champion Stallion, Fidertanz, who dominated his 30-day test in Neustadt-Dosse and then took the Vice Champion title at the Bundeschampionat in Warendorf. Foundation's damline has been very successful, producing grand prix winner Apache and Olympic horse Escapado.

Damline

The dam, Faside Brianna, is sired by Bretton Woods who won the Bronze Medal at the World Championships of five-year-old dressage horses. Prior to that, he won the 50-day test of the KWPN as well as the VSN Trophy in the Netherlands, where he was awarded a 10 for his rideability.

Internationally he is very successful in dressage with Hans Peter Minderhoud. His dam Annabel, bred to Jazz, produced the licensed stallion Chagall and has for years been one of the most highly ranked mares in KWPN breeding. With the highly significant black sire De Niro, who is currently in first place of the WBFSH ranking of all dressage sires and the highly appreciated Romancier, who is dam sire to Furst Romancier, the genetics of the dam side are highly secured.

The granddam Faside Dawn Til Dusk is by the International Grand Prix Dressage Stallion, Demonstrator, out of our KWPN graded main studbook PROK mare, Reggae. These are superb dressage bloodlines. Demonstrator was short listed for the Olympic Dressage Team. Reggae was imported from Holland and is by the Dutch stallion Olympic Vincent, who is one of the top dressage sires on the KWPN Stallion Index. Reggae’s sister was exported to America and one of Reggaes foals went to Holland for the second round of the KWPN stallion licensing. Vincent was named Dutch Champion at the 1989 Grand Prix at Haaksberg.

Fernando leads, loads into a trailer and picks out his feet. He is used to living out in a herd but is also good to come into the stable. He is used to wearing rug in winter. Fernando would suit a keen amateur looking for a top class horse to compete, or a professional home. He is very handsome and has three great paces. He is wormed, vaccinated for flu and tetanus, microchipped and passported WBS-UK.

This gentle and graceful yearling filly is GFS Last Dance is by GFS Lord of the Dance. She really is one of the sweetest natured youngsters imaginable and tries in every way to make an effort to do the right thing at all times so she can bask in the praise that earns her!

This gorgeous creature is so very light on her feet and moves with effortless agility. Her trot is her trot is pure fluidity in motion and both her walk and canter are expansive and impressive.

This lovely girl is mannerly and obliging to handle and demonstrates excellent manners with the farrier, to worm and both in and out of the stable. She loves attention and is very much a 'people's' horse. She has been handled correctly from birth and stands patiently to be groomed, bathed and rather helpfully comes to call no matter the size of paddock.

In terms of her pedigree, her dam is by Quirifino Z, a 1.60 show jumper. She also boasts some impressive dressage provenance which may go some way to understanding where her expressive and balanced paces may hail from.

This filly will be a solid future prospect for those in search of a youngster to produce who has been blessed with a genuinely versatile youngster who has the attributes to perform with aplomb in eventing or perhaps between the white boards, dancing as her name suggests! The jumping ability displayed in her genetics would also make her very handy over a fence.

She should reach a height of a minimum of 16.1hh and we would very much like to see her in a home where her wonderful attitude and loving nature will be nurtured as equally as her potential and talent.
