MeadowCove's NiteStar

    Wendyd was our first Friesian, and she captured our heart from the minute she arrived! She is a curious, funny, full-of-herself girl with elegance and grace.

She has given us four foals, Poet of MeadowCove (Ludse x Goffert), born Aug 12,

2005; Willow of MeadowCove (Ludse x Goffert 369), born March 26, 2007; Annika of MeadowCove, born May 5, 2007; and another beautiful Nanning colt, Devon of MeadowCove, born in the early morning of July 1, 2009.

Alpentraum Ster cames from a strong dressage background, her sister is the famous Bold Contender, the first Friesian to ever make it to Grand Prix level dressage.  In 1996, Bold Contender was long listed for the Olympic team. Alpe has had one foal at MeadowCove, Zuzana of MeadowCove, born April 29, 2007 (Daen x Goffert 369). She was bred to Wander in 2008 and should deliver in July of 2009.

Oksana came to live at MeadowCove in July of 2007. She is a ster mare out of the Canadian Grand Champion dressage mare in 1992, Afke E, and the 4th level dressage stallion, Frans. She is from the rare Age line. Oksana delivered a beautiful filly by Goffert on August 4, 2007 and a handsome Lolke colt on June 26, 2009.

MeadowCove's Nite Star, our 15/16 Arab mare with Crabbet lines, was born at MeadowCove June 1, 1996. She has had three fillies, two Arabs, Blue, who we lost as a yearling after a tragic leg injury; Gracie, who became a well-loved first horse for a young WV girl; and a Friesian cross filly,  MeadowCove's Velvet (aka "Pearlie") who now lives in Connecticut with her family.
