Touchdown de St Jean
The sire of TOUCHDOWN THE SAINT JEAN, HESSELHOEJ DOWN TOWN, won our hearts during the stallion show at Helgstrand Stud Farm in Denmark. DOWN TOWN is incredibly quick on the hindquarters and has a cute Welsh pony face with a big forelock. We have chosen as a partner for this stallion a very elegant Lusitano mother, a silver medalist, with a long neck and exceptional locomotion. We are more than satisfied with the result: this beautiful, sporty foal with three unusual gaits. TOUCHDOWN DE SAINT JEAN.
