Welcome Firestone 2000 Z!!

We are very excited to be able to offer this talented young stallion to North American breeders.

Firestone 2000 Z is a flashy modern type performance bred stallion who has already shown his ability to perform in the ring at an early age.

Sired by the one and only For Pleasure, a two-time winner of the Olympic Gold Medal, World Champion & Hanoverian Stallion of the Year 2000. He was part of the Gold Medal-winning German showjumping team at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics and was named German Horse of the Year in 1995. years. For Pleasure was so successfully ridden for the German team by Lars Nieberg and more recently by Marcus Ehning. He is one of the most wanted inheritors in Germany. His two gold medals for the Olympic team (Altanta and Sydney) make him one of the most successful breeding stallions. His sire, Furioso II, is considered one of the most influential sport horse breeders in the world, with his bloodlines can be found in almost all recognized international studbooks in Europe. For Pleasure is also the sire of many top jumpers, as well as winners in every arena, as well as being the sire of several approved breeding stallions, My Pleasure, Forsyth FRH, Another Pleasure Quebec Tame to name a few.

Firestone comes from an excellent dam line, Dam Lady D Van’T Roosakker, who is a direct daughter of the exceptional Electra Van’T Roosakker a successful 1.60 mare, who is herself a granddaughter of the Usha Van’T Roosakker also a 1.50m performance mare. Not only did Electra perform at the highest level, she also followed in her granddam’s footsteps as a excellent breeding mare. The pairing of Electra and the stallion Echo Van’T Spieveld, led to Lady D who is full sister to Gregory Wathelet’s breeding stallion Kassander Van’T Roosakker and Kaprice who has already won five Grand Prix’s with her rider Kent Farrington. Lady D’s oldest offspring, Puerto Rico van’t Roosakker, competed at 1.50m level with Kian Dore and is currently under the saddle of Marc Antoine Deroite. Both Qolibri and Playboy van ’t Roosakker jumped at 1.40m level. She also already has 4 other approved breeding stallion sons.

True to his parentage Firestone himself displays a huge amount of scope, excellent form and rideability. He has a fun loving personality and is kind, loves attention. At his 1st show in the USA, he was the 4 yr old overall style winner and reserve champion overall at the Young Horse Jumper Championships. He will be continuing his show career in the young jumper classes in Canada with Ashley Arnoldt this summer. We look forward to seeing what they can achieve.
