Breeding the Best of Both Worlds - Athleticism and elasticity of the Warmblood, Gentle nature, trainability, and charisma of the Friesian
|
| Mystic Oak Ranch is a small horse breeding facility in Plymouth, about 35 miles south-east of Sacramento, California. We breed quality Friesian Sport Horses for the dressage, eventing, and pleasure rider. Because of our horses' excellent minds, quality gaits, and sound conformation, they are suited for many disciplines and are ideal equine companions for all riders. Our horses have the gaits and athleticism to excel in sport disciplines, as well as the gentle people oriented personality that make them suitable for all levels and types of riders.
We stand the beautiful stallion, LSH Cadence In Color, a pinto Friesian Warmblood cross who is currently showing at the FEI levels.
What is a Friesian Sport Horse? Simply the best of both worlds - a Friesian cross that combines the best from a quality mare and stallion. The Friesian stamps a quiet and gentle personality along with improved bone and foot and baroque charisma. They exhibit a graceful neck and powerful hindquarter along with elegant movement. We carefully select Friesians bred for riding, with three excellent gaits and sport horse conformation. The result is a lovely Baroque style horse that adores people, is eager to please, and is fun to ride and train. At the same time, the Friesian Sport Horse is usually lighter in build than a pure Friesian, more forward with better stamina, and does come in colors other than black. We specialize in Friesian/Warmblood crosses, adding the athleticism and elastic gaits of the Warmblood, resulting in the ultimate sport horse.
Our horses are registered with:
American Warmblood Society www.AmericanWarmblood.org Friesian Heritage and Sport Horse Int'l www.FriesianHeritage.com Friesian Sport Horse Registry www.fshr.us
Why a Friesian Sport Horse? If you are looking for the movement of a warmblood, but with a bit more charisma, and a highly trainable horse that loves people, this is the horse you have been looking for. Browse our website and see why this is your ultimate sport horse...

| Our 2008 AWS Inspection was a success - 18 lovely horses signed up. The high point gold medal winnder of the day, with a 79.8%, just missing Supreme, was our own Cadence foal, Hemingway! Hemi received Blue Preferred premium, and the inspector gave him an incredible 8.8 for his trot!
January 2009, AWS notified us that Hemingway was the 2nd highest scoring colt in the nation in 2008!
