of Zen under saddle March 19, 2007
"Zen" took top honors at the 2006
Eugene Oregon keuring when he won Grand Champion Gelding and Grand Champion
Overall!!!
Look at his SCORES from the keuring!!!!!
He got a total of 106, which is is INCREDIBLE- 100 is average. His lowest
mark was a 104... unbelievable.
You could tell he loved to show off for the audience and his trot was absolutely breathtaking! The judges could not stop talking about him afterwards. Zen is 16.3 hands tall and has a commanding presence whether it is in the stable, in the show ring, or galloping in the pasture- no one can take their eyes off him. He is actually better in person than in these photos. He has 3 totally awe inspiring gaits and unlimited potential!!! He has a really short shiny coat
and he looks as if he was just clipped- however that is just the way he
is naturally. He doesn't get a winter coat and he also likes to stay
really clean to achieve that look like he is ready for a photo shoot at
any time.
Click here to see a video of Gooitzen at liberty (taken Nov 18, 2006) Click here to see his registration paper Gooitzen was a stallion candidate
that made it to the third round but didn't pass the semen motility
test, so we gelded him and imported him. He did however, pass the
strict requirements on xrays, so he was as clean on xrays....
He has a certificate from the FPS saying that he was clean on xrays, signed
by their veterinarian.
Results from the FHANA page:
