10 and a half months old SAW c**t - Cheval Dansant Beaujolais. By Rivendell Beregond out of Cheval Dansant's Devotion. Devotion is carrying her 7th foal. She could go into a show ring tomorrow and win. What a mare. She has never let me down. This c**t is the full brother to Cheval Dansant Berceuse, owned and ridden by Carmen Kerschbaumer . This c**t belongs to Junior rider Joné Groenewald.
This is how we start our mornings at Five Mountains Farm - home of Cheval Dansant Stud. My precious girls are knee deep in the good stuff. CD Soleil (Summer) is wearing her mom's much patched sun/fly sheet from 13 years ago. She came home at the end of May, with a massive allergic reaction to what must've been thousands of insect bites. Its taken a long time to heal to this point, and it has a way to go still, so we tried the sheet on this morning because the critters are coming alive in Wellingtonas well now.. I think she likes it. These two fillies are firm favorites at Five Mountains, and they are the ones the guests love to interact with as well

Cheval Dansant Berceuse (Lullaby). By Rivendell Beregond out of Cheval Dansant's Devotion. Such an athletic over achiever. This mare is little, and her mum is tall, but her power and paces make her appear twice her size. And what a character she is. Well loved by Carmen Kerschbaumer and everyone else lucky enough to meet her.
Rubenstien 3 x 3 Black SAW filly. Cheval Dansant's Razdi Reine turns 2 in January 2027. What a beautiful, feminine filly. She will be a beautiful broodmare one day. In the meantime, I think she needs to be produced.

Cheval Dansant DEMARCHELIER making his mum happy and getting super scores as he finds his way up the levels. He really is such a handsome young man
Cheval Dansant's Razdi Reine and Cheval Dansant Soleil (aka Summer). I SO enjoy these 2 girls. They are both so different. Reine is so much like Devotion, but is not related. Summer is so much sweeter than Devotion who is her mom. She is looking and feeling so much better.

Our 2 very special ladies. Cheval Dansant's Devotion, carrying an Esclavo filly, and El Jay's Sahara Bear, surrogate to a c**t by Cheval Dansant St Tropez out of Advanced dressage mare Quandeli (Quantico/Wendesi). Enjoying a warm winter day Mountains Guest Farm
Our 2 lovely black fillies and our magnificent 9 month c**t having a blast this morning. This went on for about 20 minutea. Cheval Dansant Soleil (black legs) has still got a way to go until I am happy with her condition, but she is feeling so much healthier and happier Cheval Dansant's Razdi Reine (white socks) always looks magnificent. And they are backed up by the absolutely gorgeous Cheval Dansant Beaujolais with his unmistakable white stockings.
