Big Ben is now a gelding! Yes, our 2006 Tangelo x Burggraaf KWPN Dutch WB, out of our imported Ster KWPN mare, Marja, has been gelded. Our thanks to the folks at TNT Equine for doing such a fine job.
While bred to be a top quality showjumper, Ben is showing all the signs of being a future Equestion Medals or Maclay horse. He has the size, the style, character and paces to take him to the top of the Big Eq world or dressage. You'll find more about Ben on the Horses For Sale page.

We purchased Kearsarge Meadows because it had everything we wanted and needed for our horses and equestrian pursuits.
Our horses love it here. So will yours.
