Happy Al Z

In 2024 we prepared the beautiful, modern stallion Happy Al- Z, barn name Thrasher, for his inspection for a client. We liked him a lot, so when we got the opportunity to buy him, we didn't hesitate. He showed so much presence, athleticism and a superb brain. We trained him under saddle and that all went as smooth as one could wish for. He shows so much athleticism, balance and suppleness. Happy Al honors his name as he is always in a good mood. Around other horses he is a true gentleman and very well behaved.

 

Happy Al Z is by H-Ekwador, a son of the famous eventing sire Heraldic XX. This stallion has been in the top rankings for many years as a sire of eventers. H-Ekwador himself carries 73% Thoroughbred and some of the best performing jumping genes. But: he was especially successful in dressage himself, competing at the London Olympics in 2012 and at the WEG in Kentucky in 2010. Read more about H-Ekwador HERE. Like his versatile lineage promises, Happy Al Z has talent for dressage as well as jumping. Especially the cross country course makes him excited: with over 60% Thoroughbred himself it's not surprising that he has a lot of stamina in the course, great jumping technique, is brave and eager on the jump. 

 

We bred a stunning colt by Happy Al Z in 2024, Up Up and Away CCE aka Olaf, out of our Hannoverian mare Fiesta by Florianus II. He really seems to be a modernizer, as she was quite classical and he improved her type tremendously. She is short and compact- he added length of leg and a modern, blood type with great ease in the movement and a lot of suppleness. 

​

Happy Al passed his sport test for ISR/ Oldenburg NA this fall, which earned him a Lifetime breeding Approval. He passed with a beautiful score of 74,90%. We activated him with KWPN of North America too, which means you don't have to pay outside stallion fee when you register your foals with them in 2026.
