This really tall, elegant and breathtakingly beautiful yearling filly with the physicality of an out and out athlete. She has a huge active walk and a proud self carriage and presence that draws the eye. Zoffany has a really super trot, demonstrating great reach, lovely natural hock and knee action with no unnatural or exaggerated high stepping. She moves easily around the arena with paces that flow in every gait; a relaxed and balanced canter and she has the gallop of a born eventer.
This filly has a superb temperament. She is calm, willing and so eager to please, has superb stable manners and is a real people person. Zoffany is tremendously elegant and a delight to work with being easy to handle in all situations and willing to learn. I would expect her to attain a height at maturity of 16.2hh
She is by GFS Fire and Ice whose pedigree boasts the late great Rock King and Bohemond and out of a SHGB Graded Kings Composer mare, Treloan Simply Red, a daughter of our own precious Treloan Tiger Lily whose sire and Grandsire Amerigo Vespucci and Shaab compliment her paternal eventing pedigree perfectly.
I think this filly shows every indication of being a tremendous eventing prospect but could easily envisage her becoming a superb dressage prospect too! I also believe she would equally be at home as a much loved equine partner for almost any rider with her gentle attitude and generosity of spirit. She is a rare beauty and golden in both nature and in colour.
Kings Composer, her damsire is the sire of numerous Advanced eventers, Grade A showjumpers and County Show Hunters and known for his exceptional temperament and the rideability of his offspring. Treloan Simply Red is as said the daughter of our cherished Treloan Tiger Lily who has proven herself as a mare who consistently produces offspring of exceptional type and temperament and whose offspring for us are mostly in professional homes but valued for their amazing natures.
More information, photos and video can be found on the foals 2019 page and a new video will be coming soon...
Tresaison Desert Ice
Tresaison De​sert Ice – buckskin spotted yearling filly.
Sire: GFS Fire and Ice
Dam: Engel vom Birkenhof – triple premium graded main book Knabstrupper mare.
This is a rare opportunity to be able to purchase a top quality youngster from the renowned Tresaison Stud who have exported horses worldwide and have now seriously
cut down their breeding program with no foals due in 2020 or plans for any thereafter.
This unique and gorgeous filly is just what we were aiming for from this cross. A dark shimmering buckskin with the added interest of dark and white spots over her quarters
inherited from her Knabstrupper dam. These will, no doubt, increase in intensity and volume as she ages.
She has a beautiful head, amazing attitude. This exceptionally lovely yearling is of the type of quality and temperament that is becoming increasingly hard to find.
She is an exceptionally beautiful and correct young horse with an abundance of natural grace, a willing, sociable nature
and could without a doubt become a serious competitor with the right person.
Standing at around 15.1/2hh at the moment we would expect her to mature in excess of 16.3hh.
Her conformation is excellent and she moves beautifully with expressive, ground covering paces which demonstrate effortless extension and elevation whilst remaining straight and purposeful.
She has enormous presence at all times and is a young horse who is always noticed. This young filly will make a very exciting young horse to produce as she matures and will certainly draw all eyes no matter where she goes!
Beautifully bred with good bloodlines indicative of exceptional versatility across the disciplines and with a pedigree which demonstrates exceptional rideability.
Autumn is a delight to handle in every situation. She was always the friendliest of foals and is a fast, willing learner with a sensible attitude and remarkable generosity of spirit making her a delight to work with.
Has had her feet trimmed regularly, is good to worm, catch and lead and has loaded with ease each time we have travelled her.
By GFS Fire and Ice the young AES Graded stallion who has very few offspring to outside mares. His sire Colourthyme Kajika who stood at GFS for many years is a rare breed knabstrupper x Kinsky warmblood , hence the unusual colouring!
There is a page describing his ancestry on the GFS website.
Fire and Ice's dam, Folly's Rock is a big moving and very powerful mare, retired young from eventing due to an accident.
Folly is by the leading sire of event horses Rock King. The sire of the Olympic eventer Rock Model. He also sired four competitors at the 2008 CCI **** at Luhmuhlen.
