Rhythm & Blues
(Olympic Ferro - Argus - Saluut)
16.2H Dutch stallion
***Winning bidder chooses between Rhythm & Blues and Coromino***
R&B is a gorgeous TRUE BLACK stallion of Dutch breeding. Starting his career in eventing, as present time he is competing as a jumper. and cross training in dressage. With a refined head, lovely sloping & free shoulder and his sire's powerful hind/compact frame, R&B is a powerhouse. (Ferro is known for passing on an ability to sit the hindquarter & a powerful engine/hind.) R&B was conceived via embryo transfer and was born on Easter Sunday 1998. In 1999 he was ranked #1 yearling in the US. At 3 yrs. he was taken to Holland for his keuring/stallion inspection. He was given Star status by the Dutch & went to Team Nijhof's for stallion test development. In 2002 R&B completed his stallion test in Prussendorf, Germany with excellent scores.
Much like his sire, we feel R&B will start his career as a Jumper and then settle into Dressage. R&B is training/competing with Jumper rider/trainer James Prettyman. So far we are pleased with the decision to point R&B toward the Jumper ring. Look for Jamey and R&B on the East Coast Jumper circuit. As a testament to his dual abilities, R&B will continue to train and compete in dressage as well. Buyer pays booking fee, all shipping/freight fees plus collection fees.
