They are a very exciting contribution and are expected to mature into modern and extremely exotic mares. We look forward to raising these two beautiful young ladies, they will be great promoters of the new modern Friesian horse!
Vanja
Vanja was concieved by Frozen semen from the magnificent FPS Studbook Stallion Bente 412. I met Bente on a visit to Holland and was mesmerised by his beauty. Bente is approved on progeny and is a modern dressage Friesian competing in Holland.
Vanja is the only offspring of Bente 412 in Australia.
Vamke-Giske
Vamke- Giske is a BB1 filly from the beautiful mare Giske. I have long admired this unique mare and am very happy to now own a beautiful filly foal from her.
Giske's first foal a colt was presented at the first Keuring held in Australia as a 3 year old gelding. He was awarded ster - Australia's first ster gelding. Her second son was entered into the studbook and her first daughter received a first premium and Champion Friesian of Australia at our 2003 Keuring.
Vamke's sire is the imported Ster stallion Dennis van der Smalbemde. He is one of a few ster stallions in Australia with a breeding permit. Denni's dam is a ster mare in Holland and has been just awarded perferent.
Dennis is a very tall modern stallion and has made a successful start to his dressage career. In his first competition Denni came second with 66% and on his second outing he received a 70.8% for equal first and 67.9% for first.
