Very excited for this 2025 cross, due end of May! Here’s to hoping for another spectacular filly from Opal (Angel Utopia) our phenomenal PSG mare.

*UNDER CONTRACT*

Top prospect from the best genetics available. Angel Utopia “Opal” has only had one foal previously available publicly and he was sold within hours of being advertised, with a wait list if the sale fell through. Don’t miss your opportunity to own a very special son from a great mare line.

The sister of Opal produced KWPN licensing champion, Livius (by Bordeaux). Famous stallion Olivi also comes from this line.

Opal’s foals are correct, great movers and top characters. True treasures.

Fetal sexed c**t is due end of May.

Stallion selections are pretty well finalized but ….. Limited time offering custom foal (you choose stallion) options on select mares:

Angel Utopia sport/keur {Tuschinski x Nimmerdor x Aktion} - this phenomenal mare earned her keur predicate in 2022 at the age of 17, after a successful PSG career being trained and shown by an AA. "Opal" comes from a decorated mareline that has produced several top sport horses, including approved stallion Olivi and licensing champion stallion Livius (from the sister of Opal). I will not be offering gender specific contracts but this is likely your only opportunity to possibly get a special filly from this mare. Opal's dam and granddam are both "pref" (3 or more offspring ster or better) and "prest" (offspring doing well in sport), Granddam is the mother of Olivi. Opal's first foal was retained as a future prospect and her phenomenal 2022 c**t was purchased by a top professional.

Persuasion SSM {Cornet Obolensky x Chin Chin x Ahorn} - "Salsa" placed in the prestigious Top 3 for NA jumpers with the KWPN in 2022. We have high expectations for this mare, who will go into sport and not be a career broodmare. Foal offerings from her will likely be few and far between, gender specific contracts will not be offered and will likely be your only chance to have a filly from this mare in the near future. She is the type of mare jumper dreams are made of! Bred for the top, with an incredible character, bravery, athleticism and brain.

When the weather changes and there’s 15 blankets to put on, I’m so grateful for Rei Of Sunshine Creations halter tags on my pile of blankets. Makes it so much quicker, especially outside in the chill. Large, easy to read and available in a multitude of colours. Can’t recommend these enough and she ships internationally!

Serious dressage riders - here is your next superstar! 🤩

Santanara SSM is a 2022 KWPN 1st premium c**t, with endless potential to be a top dressage horse.

Sired by the sensational rising star Jameson RS2 and out of the PSG, keur mare Angel Utopia. All star performance on both sides of his pedigree!

Damline has several top sport horses (7 at 4th to GP), including top stallion Olivi. The sister of Angel Utopia also produced licensing champion Livius, who in turn has young sons selected for the 2nd round of KWPN stallion approvals this year.

“Santa” will undoubtedly follow in the hoof steps of the phenomenal horses who have come before him. He is an extremely bold young horse, with light, uphill gaits sure to impress. Current on farrier work, weaned and now ready to find his person.

If you are looking for your next TOP performance horse and stallion prospect (or truly sensational gelding), look no further.

Young horse raising options available at reasonable prices. Jameson offspring will be in shorter supply as he takes a year off from being offered fresh in Europe, to focus on sport and the frozen semen is not the easiest.

Offered to a serious sport home, please be prepared to supply coaching references.

Perfect time to US riders with the current exchange!

Located in Edmonton, Alberta.

The time has come to showcase super 2021 KWPN gelding Ricochet SSM, to a discerning sport home.

Ricochet is such a phenomenal horse as both an individual and in his breeding, that we retained him as my next performance horse. As life happens, time will be limited to develop him in the next few years and so my loss is someone’s gain.

For US riders, this top gelding is a steal with the exchange!

Ricochet is by the top Grand Prix stallion Glasgow van’t Merelsnest and out of a decorated sport mare by Judgement ISF. In the damline there are many 1.30m+ sport horses and there is no doubt Ricochet will join them.

Ricochet is an extremely sensible, quiet and kind young horse. He loads, ties, good for the farrier, great to blanket and always happy to be haltered. Very friendly guy who is sure to be a barn favourite wherever he goes.

Expected to mature to 17hh, currently wearing a 75 blanket as a coming 2 year old.

Photos taken January 15, 2023. Last 3 photos of dam competing with young amateur.

Located in Edmonton, Alberta.
