Look no further, This is the proud Friesian stallion Leendert Leopold.                                                        Born: 01-03-03

2008 IFSHA World Champion Friesian Stallion - Four time IFSHA Grand National Champion 2008 - Two time IFSHA Reserve National Champion 2008 - FPZV Star Stallion 2008 -  The only stallion in the USA in 2008 to be recommended for the FPZV Stallion Performance Testing!

 "Leendert Leopold" is the epitome of athleticism and versatility, this 5-year-old stallion has had a stellar career, having garnered numerous Grand National and Reserve National Championship titles. At the young age of 3 years old, he exemplified this talent by capturing IFSHA Grand National Championships in the following disciplines: Dressage Suitability, English Show Hack, Western Pleasure and Tandem Riding. He also took Reserve Grand National Championship in English Pleasure Hunt Seat and Drive & Ride. Competing in numerous disciplines had been easy for our boy thanks to his quality bloodlines and sound mind. Leopold's latest achievement is his qualification for competition at Pennsylvania's famous Dressage at Devon. Leopold and his amazing trainers, Bruce and Staci Griffin of Griffin Sport Horses, Gretna, VA., have exceeded our dreams. Thank you Bruce and Staci, we couldn't be happier! Watch for Bruce and Staci and Leopold at Devon then it's on to the FHANA World Show. Good luck to the three of you!

   
 

Leopold exemplifies the words PRESENCE and BEAUTY. He has a fun loving, playful personality but is always a gentleman. His sire is Frans 389 and his dam's sire is Laes 278. Leopold's forward movement is a mirror image of his sire, showing exceptional extension, natural suspension, and driving impulsion. He stands 16.3 hands and is both regal and impressive. From the beginning, Leopold exhibited his talent when he was rewarded 1st Premium Reserve Champion status from the Dutch inspectors at his breed keuring. He has also received a Classic Stallion Title and approval to breed from the American Friesian Association. His success together with his child-friendly disposition make Leopold one of the most sought after breeding stallions available today.
