Simon (Lute x Ritske preferent) is a breeder's dream horse. He possesses the rare and wonderful combination of traits that make the Friesian Horse special. He is a proven competitor in-hand, driving, and in dressage. His versatility, faultless conformation, three AWESOME forward gaits, incredible mind, and extensively tested fitness and performance ability make him a breeding prospect you can trust. Both the FPS and the FPZV have cleared Simon for DNA, x-rays, semen quality, chestnut factor, and a full pedigree.

His pedigree is a fantastic combination of the best the breed has to offer. He is line bred on stam 38, the line that produced Tsjerk, Ludse, and Djurre. He is descended from Wijkje, the icon of stam 38, the Performance Prestatie Double Preferent Model mother of two approved stallions, three model mares, and six more ster mares. Simon's dam's sire, Ritske 202 (preferent) is rarely found this far forward in a pedigree. Ritske is a foundation sire for the breed and produced more FPS-approved stallions than any other sire. If versatility and performance are important to you, these lines are a must-have for your breeding program.

Simon's video's speak for themselves! He has the extension, power, and freedom of shoulder to rival the warmbloods, yet a calm and loving personality with an intelligent mind. Even among the notoriously gentle Friesian race, Simon's sweet disposition and incredible character put him in a class by himself.

His purebred offspring (out of FPS or FPZV mares) are eligible for registration with the FPZV studbook. His crossbred offspring are registerable with several organizations. Explore the links at top left to learn more about Simon, or contact us for more information and a FREE DVD.
