Funny Face is a dream horse all right!
 

Funny Face is an athletically built, eye-catching mare that knows how to present herself. Light mouthed and responsive, she has wonderful basic paces, is very quick footed and has a super bascule over jumps. Her every movement is balanced and her canter is so harmonious it’s close to perfect. Swathed in a beautiful bay coat, this charismatic horse has great presence and a perfectly modern conformation. She is a neat and clean jumper with an outstanding technique. She’s also a very intelligent horse that promises to be a pleasure to ride and bring on.

 

Funny Face may be only five, but she has more placings on her competition scorecard than most other horses of her age – 24 placings in young horse classes up to 1.25m registered with the German Equestrian Federation, including eight wins and 70% of placings in the top three. It won’t be long before she’s winning rosettes in international youngster tours.

 

This undoubtedly talented mare also has a top pedigree: Toulon is a distinctive-looking stallion with a wonderful frame. He’s also an incredibly harmonious mover. His sire, Heartbreaker, was one of the world’s leading jumping horse sires and a five star competition horse with Peter Geerink. Heartbreaker’s legend lives on in Toulon and his other offspring. Nikita, Toulon’s dam, is out of Jokinal de Borival, another broodmare with a famous family.

The dam sire, Lordanos, was both a stud horse and a competition horse. He proved to be a talented ‘family horse’ in the show jumping world, competing up to advanced level, with a wonderful temperament that was no less impressive than his jumping talent. The most famous offspring include Light On OLD (Maurice Tebbel), Lex Lugar (Carsten-Otto Nagel), Lord Lohengrin (Patrick Stühlmeyer), Lacasino (Christian Kukuk) and Nupafeeds La Vista (Sandra Auffarth).

 

Predestined to be a young rider championship horse.
