Amie has the perfect temperament for an amateur owner who may change their mind about disciplines from time to time. She's pretty and quiet enough to clock around the hunter courses, should have plenty of confidence to fox hunt in the fall, dabble in dressage or combined driving and jump jumper courses with calm ground covering canter. She has good bone for her size, an easy keeper and simply lovely to work with.
Amie is very reasonably priced!

Belinda is that special type of hunter. If she carries her sire and dam's heritage as strong as I expect, the canter is perfect with plenty of elasticity at a slow pace. Changes will be automatic with good balance from the rider. Scope will allow her to go working. In my barn I would keep her as an amateur owner and hunter derby mount. She's got the special temperament that comes from this stamm, 5585. (Same as Amie above)

Biscotti is named after her grandmother, Frascatti. She was born with her outlook on life and a similar high carriage (note: Frascatti is by Fasolt). This photo is a bit goofy since she was a late foal and grew so much hair! As her full sister, Amie, she has very good bone. Both these fillies have an air of confidence but Biscotti is out right fearless! I think Biscotti is a junior/amateur jumper to be without a doubt... and of course hunt in the off season.

Byacinthe is bred to jump world class! Her dam was reported to have been purchased from EU for $500k and had qualified for the World Cup. She is a KWPN mare from a famous Holsteiner stamm.
Byacinthe's sire, R-Saluut II won more then 20 grand prix and over $400k in prize money with Margie Engle.
Byacinthe has a very quiet temperament, tall for her age and jumps paddock fence (oops!) when it is in the way during her frolics. I see her becoming a grand prix prospect easily. In a one on one relationship with her rider, she would expand on her talents with much heart she is so willing to offer. For this reason, I would consider her as a top amateur jumper prospect.
Full sibling is expected in 2010.
