aka Zaak

Champion Colt @ ISR/Oldenburg Inspection Izaak, 2002 ISR/Oldenburg gelding, by the German approved four star stallion, Ideal, out of star award mare Kontessa. Ideal received Second Reserve Champion status at his 100 Day Stallion Testing. Ideal continues to fulfill the legacy passed on to him by his legendary foundation sires, Inschallah, Zeus, and Furioso II by passing on athletic ability, great movement, and the ideal temperament for successful sporthorses. Izaak is the second of three premium foals produced by Ideal and Kontessa. The 1999 bay filly, Iliza, was a premium foal with an overall score of 8.0. In 2004, Iliza was placed in the Oldenburg/ISR Main mare book and her 2004 filly by Riverman was awarded premium with an overall score of 8.4. In July 2005, Iliza passed her Mare Performance test. The 2004 filly, Ileana, was a premium filly at her inspection with an overall score of 8.2. Zaak has been handled daily since birth. He is easy to work around and clips, bathes, ties, loads, and hauls well. Zaak recently showed in hand with scores in the 70s, and was very well behaved the entire weekend of the show. Zaak was recently started under saddle. He is well mannered, calm, and has a great work ethic. Also, he loves to free jump. He will continue in training until sold. Zaak is lifetime registered with both USEF and USDF. Zaak was pre-vetted by breeder prior to starting under saddle and he has clean x-rays. Zaak will be competitive in either dressage or jumping.

The Ultimate Piaffe’s 3 Star TB mare, Lotta Currency (we call her Rotterdam) had her 8th Ideal foal, a chestnut filly with a white star on April 10, 2002. Rotterdam, as she is called, was the first mare the Ultimate Piaffe bought for the breeding program. She has had 4 fillies and 4 colts. The second colt, Iko, is owned and ridden by Sandy Howard and will be shown Prix St. George in 2002. The filly was named Ikuma. (Inspired by a newspaper story the same day about a famous diamond in Canada.) Three-Star Premium rated mare, Lotta Currency XX produces dressage horses selected by F.E.I. level dressage trainers and riders, including U.S.E.T. dressage team member and A.H.S.A. Judge, Sandy Howard. She has been awarded Three Stars from the ISR/Oldenburg N.A. for her individual premium quality and her ability to produce premium foals as well as her ability to produce open competition horses and premium mares. Lotta Currency has the perfect type for sport horse breeding, she is tall and has a large rectangular frame, well-muscled hindquarters and good bore. Her face shows presence and quality and her dark liquid eyes speak of her willing sensible nature. She has produced Five premium foals and one 7.5 foal by Ideal, all of which demonstrate form earlier on and a rare balance in motivated and expressive movement. They have freedom and regularity in rhythm, swing and rotation over the top lines and desirable suspension, but most importantly, they are exceptional in their ability to come underneath themselves and load and engage the hind end, which translates to collection. We believe that the very reason the Ideal x Lotta Currency offspring are selected by F.E.I. dressage riders is that they have experience in what it takes to make a Grand Prix horse. What good is a flashy front end unless the horse can “sit” and collect?
USET Dressage team member and AHSA “S” judge, Sandy Howard, went to
Europe several times before finding her Grand Prix prospect in Iko.
Howard actually saw how easy piaffe was for Interflocken and that
had helped her to determine to give Iko a second look.
Iko, a chestnut gelding who matured at 16.2+ hands, has competed
under Sandy from Training level to Third level with scores averaging in
the mid 70%’s. Howard
admits she is only showing Iko, now called Euro Pro Iko, very lightly –
only one test a day at a handful of shows – because she wants to keep
him fresh and happy. She
doesn’t care if Iko is a super medium level Integral, 8.5 gray gelding, was selected by an F.E.I. level rider in Minnesota for his exceptional ability to get underneath himself. Ikuma has all the promise of her siblings. Ikuma was sold to Masin family of Incline Village, Nevada. Congratulations!
