Welcome to Faside Stud

Faside Stud was established in 2006 with the purchase of four top quality broodmares to use for breeding high quality sports horses. We combine the excellent bloodlines of our mares with some of the finest stallions in Europe to produce offspring that have the potential to go to the top in their discipline.

By breeding the best to the best, Faside Stud hope to produce horses who are sound, athletic and trainable. Temperament and conformation are the top priorities in our breeding programme. Every foal is well handled consistently from birth.

The stud has a purpose built yard within Fa'side Estate. Each stable is large enough to comfortably accommodate a mare and growing foal. The yard also has CCTV both inside the stables and externally for both security and monitoring the horses. Some of our stables have heat lamps and the yard has purpose built stocks.

We are expecing five foals in 2012 by Breitling, Hotline, Rousseau, Scolari and Johnson.

There are videos of most the foals and youngstock on Facebook. We had 5 dressage bred foals in 2011 by stallions from Schockemohle Stud in Germany.

The Sandro Hit and Hotline colts are for sale! 
 

For 2012 we have two new broodmares joining our stud. The first is a young 16.3hh chestnut mare by Emma Hindles Grand Prix dressage stallion Diamond Hit out of a Londonerry x Weltmeyer mare. Diaderry is a big moving horse with an incredible hindleg technique. She was imported from Germay and has been lightly backed.  Her dam Laconia has produced a State Premium and Champion mare by Don Frederico. Paul Schockemohle bought a full brother to Diaderry to prepare for stallion licensing. Diaderrys full brother was sold at the PSI auction for 72,000 Euro.  Diaderry is in foal to Scolari who is by Sandro Hit x De Niro.

The second new addition is San Donna, an elegant black Oldenburg mare by the legendary Sandro Hit out of an outstanding mare line that has produced many Elite mares and licensed stallions. Her half-sister (same dam) was a price highlight of the PSI Auction and is successfully competing in young horse Championships in the USA. San Donnas dam-sire is the Elite stallion Don Schufro who tops the German breeding value with a dressage index of 171 and has more than 20 licensed sons. San Donnas grand-dam St.Pr.El Rubina was Champion of the Bundeschampionate in 1990 and was crowned the 1a Champion, best 4 year old Mare of Germany the same year! She produced 3 Licensed stallions and 5 Elite mares.  San Donna is not in foal for 2012.

We are expecing five foals in 2012 by Breitling, Hotline, Rousseau, Scolari and Johnson.

Reggae is in foal to Breitling who is the 2009 FN breeding index leader with a total of 172 points. He has won international Grand Prix classes and Nations Cups, taken first prize in 22 advanced level dressage classes, secured a bronze medal at the German Championship and accumulated over EUR 130,000 in prize money in the dressage arena.

Champagne Supernova is back in foal to Hanoverian licensing Champion and record- priced auction horse Hotline, who won advanced dressage classes by the age of 7. In 2008 Hotline became Danish National Champion and in 2009 he won a Qualifier with a score of 9.45. Of his first offspring (aged 3 in 2010) Halifax was in the top 5 at the Bundeschampionat and many of his stock were selected for Elite auctions where they fetched high prices. At only 9 years old, Hotline already has already produced 9 approved stallion sons as well as the Danish Champion mare.

Our homebred mare Faside Rubins Black Magic is in foal to Rousseau who has the highest Dressage index of KWPN stallions.  He was the 4 yr old Dutch National Champion and 5 yr old Reserve Champion. He won a Silver medal at the 2003 FEI World Championships for Young Horses. As a sire he produced 3 Champions of KWPN Stallion Licensing - Wamberto, Blue Hors Zack and Ampere. 

Another homebred, Dawn Til Dusk, is in foal to Johnson who is by Jazz x Flemmingh.  Johnson was the overall champion of the KWPN stallion show 2005 and became the top ranked in the stallion competition series in 2006-7.  At the World Championships Verden in 2007 he came 6th.  Johnson is the sire of Bretton Woods who is hailed as the 'new Totilas'.

Our newest broodmare Diaderry is in foal to the performance test winner Scolari who comes from one of the best Hanoverian mare lines. Scolari is by Sandro Hit x De Niro x Weltmeyer so his pedigree makes him an exciting stallion to watch.
