Well done!!
Our last foal arrived on July 23, so we are done foaling for the year.
Two of the 2010 foals will be offered for sale: "Penny" chestnut filly out of ESP Winnie Winston (by Madison) by Phantast and "Providence" bay filly out of Arlequin (by Alternative) by Phantast.
We will add photos soon.
The third foal of the year for Lynncrest Farm arrived last night. Esp Winnie Winston by Madison delivered a chestnut filly by Phantast.
She even has a belly marking, just like her mom!
The second baby of the year for Lynncrest Farm arrived last night. Livelle by Lehndorff delivered a black/bay filly by Phantast.
Two down, two more to go!
A new baby for Lynncrest Farm arrived the early morning of Tuesday May 25, 2010.
Our Oldenburg mare Arlequin by Alternative gave us a filly by Phantast . She is a very tall girl, looks to be a dark bay or black when she sheds out and has a big blaze that extends over her left nostril and an irregular hind left stocking. We will post pictures in the next couple of days. Both mom and baby are doing well.
We took some new pictures of Phaun by Phantast, please look on her respective page under "Sales Barn" for details. She is growing up into a very tall well put together girl!
We exptect her to mature 17h+, as she turns 2 this summer.
We put Phaith, Liska and Labonte though a jump chute for the 1st time last week. I have added some pictures to each of their pages. They all did very well, were game to the jumps and showed good form. We put the second jump, an oxer up to 3' and they all jumped it with ease.
Videos of the sessions are available on request.
Phaith by Phantast came home today from the trainers. She had her initial 30 days put on her and is doing w/t/c. She has also been ridden out on the trail and did wonderful. The trainer reported that she has been a very good girl, is very affectionate and likes to work. We watched her being tacked up and ridden, and she is quiet to handle/tack and is responsive & quiet under saddle. She will have a month or so rest (depending on weather) and then put back into training to prepare for showing this summer. We are going to start Phaith in the hunters in 2010.
To all our clients, we want to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy "Foaling" New Year!!
Can't wait to see the new babies in 2010!
Liska by Lehndorff came home today after 30 days of training. This mare had 6 weeks of training this past summer, came home for a well deserved break and then was put back into training where she did very well. She is currently doing a solid w/t/c & picking up her leads. She has also been ridden out on the trail.This mare has a lovely way of going, with tremendous self-carriage and balance at such an early stage of training. Her self carriage is beyond the amount of undersaddle training she has had thus far. Big moving, easy mare to sit. Trainer informed us "he could ride her all day, that's how comfortable she is to sit"
She will have a couple of months off and then resume training in the spring to get her prepared for her show career.
We trailered Liska by Lehndorff to the trainers to further her training over the winter. She is currently going w/t/c. She will be schooled in the ring and out on the trail to diversify her training.
Lizzie by Lehndorff has been sold! Congratulations to Kathy!
We had the vet out today to do the last of our pregancy ultrasounds and we are happy to report that all 4 of our own mares that we bred are all confirmed in foal!
It was a busy year, so we only bred 4 of our own mares and only once, so we had no expectations of 100% success rate.
Thank you Phantast! For 2010 we are expecting:
Livelle (Lehndorff) x Phantast
Legacy (Lehndorff) x Phantast
Arlequin (Alternative) x Phantast
Esp Winnie Winston (Madison,Holst) x Phantast
Liska is home after 6 weeks of training in Kamloops. We are happy to have her home and missed her while she was gone. She is having some well deserved time off for a couple of weeks and then weather permitting, we will continue to lightly ride her to continue her education over the winter.
Liska is maturing into a very lovely mount with wonderful self carriage and a good work ethic.
We hauled Liska to a jumper trainer in Kamloops who works out of Circle Creek Equestrian center to start her training. It was her 1st trip in a trailer and she loaded and hauled like a champ.
Liska will be available for viewing by appointment.
Liska and Labonte have both been backed and are progressing well in their training. They are both very fun to work with and show a great work ethic.
Liska will be heading to Kamloops in the next couple of weeks to further her training with a jumper trainer out of Circle Creek Equestrian Center, while Labonte will be heading to a trainer closer to home in Lillooet.
This will give me an opportunity to start with Phaith & Phreedom and to finish up breeding some of our own mares for the year.
Phinal Approach has been sold! Congratulations to her new owner!
Promise has been sold! Congratulations to her new owner!
Lestat has been sold! Congratulations to his new owners!
Congratulations to Bonita Diane Tolley, owner/breeder of Phantazzia* by Phantast a 2002 Oldenburg mare out of Waldkonig's Star by Waldkonig on achieving premium status with Oldenburg NA.
We have been notified by Oldenburg NA that our 2, three year old fillies Phreedom* and Phaith* both by Phantast, have been awarded High Score Premium Mare Award both tieing for third place of all mares inspected in Canada in 2008!!
Fall is definately here, and even though the weather has been lovely, the horses are hairing up in preparation for cold weather! The 2008 foals are starting to look like teddy bears.
We have stopped working the younsters and are busy trying to get last minute fencing and building progects completed before winter.
The horses love this weather, there are little to no flies, the temperature is comfortable, and they have all been but out to pasture or in with buddies for the winter.
Our annual Oldenburg inspection was on a lovely sunny day, held at our farm on August 19, 2008. We presented 4 of our 2008 foals, with all receiving premium scores, and also Grand Champion filly and colt!!
Our Lehndorff filly, Lizzie scored 8 or over in all 3 catagories and as did our colt Phaust by Phantast out of Livelle by Lehndorff. To all who attended, thank you for helping and making our day an enjoyable one!
Breeding season is over for the year, and now we are working on updating the sales pages with updated photos and footage.
Check back often, as not all our sales horses are yet listed, but will be as time permits.
Well, the last of our 6 foals due this year has arrived! Last night our Oldenburg mare Arlequin foaled out a lovely filly by Phantast. She is very elegant and has legs that go on forever!
***Congratulations to Ramona on your purchase of Prophecy by Phantast!!***
Dasani has been sold. Congratulations to her new owner!
Due to the busy nature of breeding & foaling season at present, the training on the 3 yr olds has been put on hold for now. I will resume their training in the near future.
We will continue to update their pages with uptodate footage and pictures as time permits.
Foaling season is rolling along and we have welcomed 4 new foals thus far. 3 are by Phantast and 1 is by Lehndorff. 4 down and 2 more to go.
We have added new pictures of Phaith and Labonte on their respective sales pages.
More updates to follow!
All 4 of our coming 3 yr olds have now been started in training.
Over the next couple of months they will be handled and worked 5 days a week and will be taught everything from general handling, loading, clipping, saddling, driving and eventually riding.
New video and footage will be added to each horses page as they get further along in their training.

Congratulations to Denver and Larissa!
Last year Denver by Phantast finished the year competing in all four Grand Prix's at Thunderbird plus the Masters at Spruce Meadows with very respectable results. He was champion or reserve champion at 9/12 competitions he attended. I am honoured to ride such a super talent. A rider only experiences a horse like Denver once in a lifetime and I feel we are just beginning to uncover his potential.
Larissa Ziebart
And one makes 6!
4 Fillies and 2 colts.
We have 5 healthy foals on the ground thus far. 3 fillies and 2 colts.
Check out the sales page for the new additions. We are in the process of getting all the foals added. It may take a little while to get them all added as we have been busy foaling and breeding.
Anyone wanting to attend our ISR/Oldenburg N.A. inspection this year to watch or participate, please call or email for more information. Details for date and time are on the home page. The breeding seminar which is being held in conjunction with the inspection should be very informative. Hope to see you all there!

To PAXTON, born 1998 by PHANTAST out of some of Charlie,
2003 USDF Jr/YR, Fourth place at First Level
2003 USDF Region 6 and Northwest Championships: Reserve Champion at First Level Musical Freestyle with a 68%.
2004 Golden State Dressage Festival (Rancho Murietta, CA): High Point Freesytle with a 71.458%. (first level freestyle)
2004 USDF Region 6 and Northwest Championships: Reserve Champion at First Level Freestyle with a 68.4%
I can't tell you how much I love this horse. He has the best temperment, he is awsome at shows. I never have any trouble adjusting him to new settings, which is ideal for showing. I often have people tell me how unfair it is that my horse is so calm and collected, while theirs bounce off the wall. He has also been easy to train, I was only 16 when I got him as a 2 year old and I have done ALL of the training myself. He is the only horse I can really trust. Back in July of 2004 I had to undergo surgery. About 5 weeks after surgery I finally got the okay to ride (he had just been out to pasture during my recovery). I put him on the lunge for literally for two minutes and then hopped on, he didn't have a silly bone in his body. He did so well and came back so fast that I decided we should to to Championships. I competed second level and placed third out of eight in both Region 6 and Northwest champs. We also got reserve champ in the first level freestyle, both region 6 and northwest. I really only had a month to get him back before championships. All things considered he is a champ. Overall I couldn't ask for a better horse. I consider myself lucky to have such a fine animal.-Shanna Elder
CONGRATULATIONS!!

Lancelot by Lehndorff
Hi Joy,
Last year he won a Gavilan Chapter high point at 3rd level and we shall see what he's up for next year. I find that if we show at the level we're schooling it keeps his interest because Lance is incredibly smart and quite engaged... for that reason his scores in the high 60s/low70s are lower than they might be if I showed him in a level he already knew well....I guess this is the luxury of an amateur rider. He is an amazing horse! Happy New Year, Lisa

I have to tell you of all the horses we have bred, these two Lehndorff foals have to be the greatest...they both have absolutely wonderful temperaments and their conformation is super not to mention their awesome athletic ability. Every time I take Larry into public, I am innindated with propositions from people wishing to purchase him. Lexi(about 16.2hh already at 2) is out of our TB mare. They are both so easy to work with and just a pleasure to have around. Lexi is going to be much bigger than Larry, and will probably max out over 17hh (throw back to Lehndorff's dad maybe)...quite substancial in body size. She too will hopefully make a top level jumping career but she (as does Larry) also have the movement to go high levels dressage. I took a clinic from Robin Hahn with Larry, and Robin is totally impressed with Larry and feels that he definitely has what it takes to make the top level of a jumping career and he told me that he is totally impressed with his athletic abilities as well his willingness to do whatever is asked of him. He basically told everyone that Lehndorff offspring that he has seen to date are a good bet for anyone interested in breeding or purchasing.
-Tia Groves-
Trina has a 5 year old Lehndorff filly out of her Oldenburg mare. She was branded first premium and won the Oldenburg keuring as a weanling. She is very athletic and agile, traits she got from Lehndorff as my mare is big and powerful but not as athletic as my filly. My friend Jenny has a six year old Lehndorff gelding that she is starting to show in the hunter/jumper this year and he is very athletic as well.
