Jan is everything you could hope or ask for in a stallion: intelligent, honest, strong and kind. He is a Baroque style Friesian who was imported as a two-year-old to the United States. Displaying correct conformation with smooth fluid gates, Jan is as easy on the eyes as he is the heart. He was rated first premium in the Netherlands and continues to prove himself as a sire. Many of his pure and cross bred offspring continue to excel in several disciplines.
Jan, even in his later years continues to show just how impressive he is. While Competing at the 2023 International Friesian Show Horse Association World National show, Jan claimed the coveted High Point overall Friesian, as well as many Grand and Reserve championships, many were eared while being shown by our youth and junior riders. His offspring, some of which also showed during the IFSHA 2023 World Nationals won multiple grand and national titles, and none left the ring without at least a top five ribbon. Other progeny have gone on to perform well in the show ring and out on the trails. Jan's foals inherit the best of him, as in they display a kind, sweet disposition as well as natural talent. Jan is available for breeding through collection to select outside mares beginning in March to September of each season. To secure a breeding spot for 2024 contact us today!
