Bogart is the first son of the great Jorrit to be an approved FPZV stallion. Bogart is out of Xanadu, a Model mare and perhaps the finest moving Friesian we have ever owned. Much is expected of Bogart based on his bloodlines. His twin sister is our mare, Bacall.

      Bogart has not disappointed us and his potential is unlimited. His trainer early on was Sabine Shut-Kery, who also trained our other stallions. She told us that she thinks Bogie is much more advanced than either Jorrit or Tinus were at his age. She sees no reason why Bogie will not be able to compete successfully at Grand Prix.

Bogie has a natural uphill build and is naturally engaged. These inherited qualities allow him to be light on his feet and extremely forward-moving.

      After a one-year break, Bogart is now back in a training regimen and will again compete. In 2007 he will be competed at Second and Third Levels. Our expectations are high, and he has not disappointed us yet.

      Bogie is sought after for breeding because of his bloodlines but his beauty, talent and temperament should never be overlooked.
