Overview

The eye-catching black stallion Jayson has much to offer beyond just his good looks. He also has an FEI pedigree filled with top performers that will catch any dressage breeder’s attention. Under Hans Peter Minderhoud, his sire is Johnson who had an impressive career including the World Equestrian Games, Olympics, and European Championships.  As a sire, Johnson is proving equally impressive and is currently ranked #1 in the world on the WBFSH Dressage Sire rankings, one placing ahead of his sire.  Johnson’s sire, Jazz, is ranked #2 in on both the KWPN and WBFSH ranking lists for dressage sires in 2020.

 

Jayson’s dam, Zamora B, has already produced 2 approved sons as well as an Elite and Ster daughter.  Zamora’s oldest offspring Esperanto was winner of the USDF Region 1 Intermediate I Open Championship and Reserve Champion at Prix St. Georges in 2021, after making his FEI debut at the CDI1* at Dressage at Devon. Zamora’s sire is the revered stallion Negro.  An impressive FEI competitor himself, he has an incredible record for siring Grand Prix horses, including Olympic and World Cup Champion Valegro.

Performance

Jayson convincingly won his initial NRPS Stallion Performance Test and went on to complete the KWPN Short-Term Performance Test earning multiple scores of 8 or above and 9’s for rideability and attitude. Jayson placed 6th in the PAVO Cup Finals in 2018 and 11th in 2019. He was also an Alternate for the WBFSH Young Horse Championships.

Offspring

We’ve been very pleased with Jayson’s early foals and look forward to the start of their performance careers in the coming years. The KWPN recommends Jayson for breeders looking to add size, rideability, and impulsion to the gaits.
