Ivanhoe FQ, undoubtably one of the most decorated  
purebred Friesian stallions of our time, will be
standing at stud at Heavenly Gaits Farm for the 2010
breeding season.
Standing at stud
A young champion
Ivanhoe FQ from a young age showed a  natural
talent for jumping-from clearing his stall door at the
inspections at 2 months old, to clearing 5 ft. fences at
2 1/2 years of age, thus Ivanhoe was originally  broke
to ride by an open jumping trainer.  Since it was
generally believed  that  "Friesians can't jump", it
would be up to Ivanhoe to prove that with the correct
breeding, natural talent and training the right Friesian
can jump.  Ivanhoe FQ proved this to be correct, winning his first USEF and IFSHA
Horse of the Year Friesian Champion titles at age 3 in the Hunter Pleasure/ Hack
division.
A versitile breed
Due to Ivanhoe's great mind and athletic ability, it became apparent that Ivanhoe FQ
was well suited to prove the versitility of the Friesian Horse in recognized sport. Ivanhoe
answered this challenge in only 2 years of competition earning 2007 IFSHA World
Champion Baroque Stallion Open & Amateur and USEF/IFSHA Dressage, Hunter,
Western, and Specialty Horse of the Year Champion and the highly coveted 2007 USEF
Grand Champion Friesian.
FPZV Approved Breeding Stallion
For Ivanhoe FQ, 2008 proved to be the culmination of his quality breeding & training
which prepared him to complete the rigors of the 60 day FPZV Stallion Performance
test, proving himself to Federation Nationale licensed officials with good scores at
cross country jumping, heavy weight pull, driven dressage, ridden dressage, as well as
conformation and movement, ending the event as an FPZV Approved Breeding Stallion.
A true gentleman
Ivanhoe is a complete gentleman.  He resides along side mares and never
misbehaves.  He is quiet enough to allow a young girl of 12 to handle and ride him.  He
loves people and has a wonderful personality.  His beautiful mane and magnificent full
tail complete the picture of a fantasy Friesian.  We are very happy to have him as an
addition to our farm.  We look forward to a long and productive breeding and show
career with him.
