River Edge Ranch

River Edge Ranch stands the thoroughbred stallion “Belfry”.
He is JC registered and listed with AQHA (panel tested negative).
This 17hh stallion has huge bone and fantastic feet. He is producing quiet, easy offspring that are just starting to hit the show world as hunters and eventers.
Belfry adds length of leg, a lovely neck and a fantastic canter.
Standing in 2026 for $750 with discounts available. Live cover, on site AI and fresh shipped semen are all available with the option of the stud fee due after mare has been confirmed pregnant.

Standing this year at River Edge Ranch are the two stallions “Belfry” and “Primo Danza” - live cover, on site AI, and shipped semen are offered for both stallions.
Belfry is a 17hh JC registered TB stallion. He is listed with AQHA and special consideration will be given to registered mares. He is a producing Sporthorse stallion with offspring (oldest now 5 year olds) showing promise as fox hunters, eventers and hunters. He adds length of leg and improves neck attachment, feet, and canter. Six panel negative.
Primo Danza is a 16.2 hh registered KWPN stallion. He is not approved.
He carries dilution gene and a W20 gene. He is negative for FFS.
This stallion has the best temperament. He loves to jump and he will make a fantastic dressage horse. His oldest foals are turning 2 years old.
I would designate him as a hunter type - but as that is not my realm, he also makes a fantastic eventing stallion.
I am downsizing so he will be gelded at the end of breeding season and rehomed. Available in the low to mid fives.

Breeding information: $600 stud fee with $150 chute fee. Stud fee due at heartbeat check.
Collection fee $150

Congrats to Cristie Palmer on her placings in the young horse development series.
Cristie gave me the opportunity to breed her fabulous mare EWSZ Akelei four years ago and this outstanding young horse was the result: Abendstern QP (Belfry xx - Amateur 1).
I can’t wait to see what the future holds for this young superstar.
I have been standing Belfry (TB) at River Edge Ranch for the past 5 years, but my marketing/promotion skills are lacking.
I need to get the word out that he is capable of producing some quality foals.

I finally caught a picture of Rhi that captures some of her presence.
Rhi is a massive (just shy of 17hh), KWPN reg B mare. She was born October 12, 2021. If you like the big girls, this one will definitely catch your eye.
Dam is Shiner - a big Clyde cross mare. Sire is Figaro B.
This girl could carry a knight in full armor into battle. Old style. Very bold, very laid back. Big, fluid, naturally balanced gaits.
Honestly, I see her being a phenomenal fox hunter, low/mid level eventer (you will get time penalties), mid level dressage horse or vaulting mount.
She should mature 17.2 - 18 hh.
Low fives.
