Poseidon-3 1/2 year old 16.1+ h. palomino Dutch Warmblood gelding. By Goldmaker out of a Goodtimes/ Wanroij mare.

Poseidon-3 1/2 year old 16.1+ h. palomino Dutch Warmblood gelding. By Goldmaker out of a Goodtimes/ Wanroij mare. Poseidon's sire, Goldmaker, successfully completed his 70 day Stallion Performance test on November 12th, 2011, making him the ONLY cremello Thoroughbred stallion in North America to be
fully licensed and approved with a warmblood registry. Throughout the 70 Day Stallion Test, Goldmaker received high marks for his rideability, character and temperament. He wowed ALL of the judges at the testing - both registry inspectors and testing judges - with his exceptional cross country ability. He has
a balanced, cadenced canter, a good trot, extraordinary jump and willing, forward temperament.
Poseidon's dam, Dakota KF is by Goodtimes(Nimmerdor/Caletto I). As a 3 year old stallion, Goodtimes was champion of the stallion test. He is well known for producing all round athletes. He has offspring that competed in GP dressage and also in the highest levels of jumping. Dakota's dam Mystique was Keur mare with KWPN and was top foal in the country in her birth year.

Poseidon is easy going with a volunteer attitude. He has been lunged over small jumps and shows an aptitude and willingness to jump in good form. Under saddle he shows three correct gaits, and good movement in a steady contact. The bonus is his eye-catching palomino color- he is indeed a Barbie horse!

UPDATE! Poseidon was taken off property for an away from the farm experience and he was perfectly behaved. He loaded and unloaded quietly, stood quietly on the trailer while the other horse was ridden, and was perfectly behaved in the strange ring under saddle.
He is entered in a dressage schooling show on Feb. 24.

Rolling Stone Farm

Warmblood breeder for 44 years. Owner of large Oldenburg (GOV) and Hanoverian breeding farm in eastern PA. Young, well started dressage horses and occasional hunter prospects always available. USDF Bronze, Silver, Gold, Sapphire, Ruby and Platinum Breeder of Distinction. I have produced 39 Elite Mares and Elite Mare Candidates, and 3 State Premium Mares for the Hanoverian Society, and 32 Special Premium mares and 17 Verbands Premium mares, 191 Premium Foals and 48 Foals of Distinction for the German Oldenburg Verband. I have produced 9 licensed stallions, including the fully licensed and approved stallion named Shakespeare RSF (winner of the 2009 70 day stallion test), a licensed stallion named Somer Hit, 3 licensed stallions in 2012 (one from the first foal crop of Shakespeare RSF- Shotgun, also Dheputy and a stallion in Germany), Fhitzgerald and Sir James (both imported from Germany and successfully completed the 70 day stallion test here in the US), another licensed stallion in 2014 named Shavane- the second licensed Shakespeare RSF son who is out of homebred EM Rheporter (Royal Prince/Weltmeyer). In 2015 another Shakespeare son was licensed- Shortstop, who was Grand Champion at a USDF breed show in 2015. I have bred four top 6 FEI Young Horse National Champions and multiple HOY winners in hand and in dressage, and four winners of the Young Hunters Under Saddle at Hunter Devon. We stand Shakespeare RSF (Sandro Hit/Arrian). I estimate I have bred about 450 foals to date, and I also sell young stock and up to 20-25 riding horses a year. Some of my horses are fourth and fifth generation from my own breeding program. I started out in hunters and jumpers and then rode dressage up to the PSG level, not competing much due to family and farm commitments. I finally received her USDF Bronze and Silver medals in 2018. My homebred Hanoverians and Oldenburgs have been top ten in national dressage rankings and have won many under saddle and in hand classes at many shows such as Dressage at Devon (Grand Champion 2011 and Reserve Grand Champion 2021), NEDA (Grand Champion 2021 and 2022) and the hunter show at Devon. I have produced numerous champions and reserve champions at many in hand shows and has been in the top 8 ranking for USDF Dressage Breeder of the Year since 2013, leading that category in 2020 and 2022. I was the 2016 and 2018 USDF Dressage Sport Horse Breeding Breeder of the Year and have been in the top 16 since 2013. I have been the USEF Dressage Breeder of the Year every year 2014-2023 and was 2nd in that category from 2011-2013 and in 2022. In 2021 I was also the USEF Dressage Breeding Breeder of the Year and was in the top 4 for the USEF Dressage Sport Horse Breeder of the Year 2013- 2022. My greatest pleasure has been breeding suitable horses for the amateur market in the disciplines of dressage or hunter with an emphasis on rideability and movement.
