Our
involvement with Friesians began with a gorgeous yearling mare named
Cora van ‘t Grupje (Cora). We first saw her at the Equine Affaire
in 2001, and by the end of the weekend, we had purchased her, making
her the very first Friesian to join our family.
Cora is a Stamboek Ster mare who earned her ster in September
of 2003. She has since given birth to three foals. (see
foals).
Hiltsje Fán Kúkherne (Gracie)
In
2003 we purchased Hiltsje Fán Kúkherne (Gracie), a tiny, affectionate
Anton filly. Since then, Gracie has grown into an impressive mare
of 16.2 hands, and her personality is as amiable as ever (her favorite
place to be is snuggled up against your chest as you softly scratch
behind her ears).
Gracie gave birth to her first foal in the spring of 2008
(see foals).
