Sale Barn
Due to COVID 19 we are currently CLOSED to farm visits for
the safety of everyone involved.
WE ARE RETIRING
FROM HORSE BREEDING. MOST OF OUR HERD IS FOR SALE.
We are retiring from
breeding and have temporarily priced our horses way below market
value to move them into forever homes faster. We reserve the
right to put them back at their correct price at any time.
Finding a homozygous tobiano in the Barock Pinto breed is
extremely, extremely rare - this is a chance to get an amazing
horse at awesome prices. A Barock Pinto is a Friesian crossed
with a Warmblood, with no other breeds involved (such as Paints,
Morgans, Gypsy Vanners etc).
Click "Read More" to
go to the horses individual pages for more pictures and videos,
all of which were taken recently and are the most current ones
we have at this time. Horses are removed from the site once they
are sold. So if you don't see a horse you were following, they
are in their new homes or preparing for travel. We do NOT work
with brokers, resellers, or third parties who want us to pay
them a percentage to sell our horses.
For the past 15
years, Top Hat Friesians has produced top quality horses
with excellent conformation, temperaments, and work ethics
that were suitable for various equestrian sports. Through
careful planning we
produced a lot of
homozygous tobiano Barock Pintos, which are very rare in the
breed. In 2019 we
expanded into Warmbloods but then in late 2020 decided to
semi-retire and sold all of the Warmbloods,
leaving only Barock Pintos. We put a lot of planning and work
into our breeding program to produce top quality horses, however, life can be full of
twists and turns, and now in late 2021, we have decided to
close our barn doors for good and completely retire from breeding
and raising foals. Raven and
Electra are the last foals to be bred by us and born on our
farm. We are keeping Picasso, Zoey, and the minis as our
personal horses and all of our other breeding stock will be
sold to approved homes. We
MIGHT offer Picasso at stud again to the public in the future, but
that remains to be seen.
We have lowered
the prices of the horses to move them (many are
priced way below market value especially the homozygous
tobiano horses) but we also don't want them to be bought and
flipped. We're looking for long term, forever homes for them
with owners who will appreciate their uniqueness and value
and that will treat them with the love and care that we have
always given them. We will consider (doesn't mean we will
accept it) all REASONABLE offers from LEGITIMATE buyers who have a plan for the horse. Unreasonable offers, tire kickers, low ballers,
horse flippers, and spammers who want to send us a check
with an extra $500 please don't waste our time. We might be
retiring from breeding horses but that doesn't mean we'll
just sell them to anyone just to get them out of our barn.
We're perfectly content to wait for the perfect home because
we love these horses. We will be just
as selective as always to make sure they go to the best home
possible that will fit the horse's personality and athletic
abilities.
If you have
questions about any of the horses, please call 561-288-4545
to speak with Melissa. If I don't answer, please leave a
message and I'll call you back as soon as possible. You can
also email us at "info @ tophatfriesians.com" without the
spaces.

Introducing Phantasia THF, a KWPN registered, flashy filly

run a complete color panel and pattern tests on Phantasia
and she DNA tested homozygous tobiano (she'll throw the
pinto color pattern every time), heterozygous black (she
carries a dominant black gene and a recessive red gene), and
is negative for everything else. We also ran genetic tests
on her and her results came back as negative for all of the
following: Friesian Dwarfism, Friesian Hydrocephalous,
Warmblood PSSM Type 1 gene (Polysaccharide Storage Myopathy
– Type 1), and Warmblood WFFS Type 1 gene (Warmblood Fragile
Foal Syndrome).
Phantasia has inherited a tremendous love for people just
like her sire, Knight of Hearts, and grandsire, Picasso's
Masterpiece. Her personality is independent and spirited,
yet also calm and well mannered, she's brave and inquisitive
and a quick learner that's not afraid to try new things or
be by herself. She has
excellent confirmation with a nice short back and long legs

DOB: 5-30-2012
Bonita is an elegant mare with a delightful
temperament. She is an excellent mother who is easy to get
in foal and to foal out. She became a nurse mare this year
when she adopted our rejected foal, Raven. She loves him as
much as she's loved the foals she gave birth too. Her foals
tend to be between 16 to 16.1 hands when grown. She has a kind and gentle disposition, a
forward walk, floating trot and uphill canter. Her shoulder
movement is loose and expressive with quick hind legs that
step well under her body. She has excellent conformation
that is similar to the champion Dutch Warmbloods in her
pedigree.
Bonita is unique in that she has
one blue eye. When DNA tested, Bonita tested as homozygous
tobiano and homozygous black which means she'll throw foals
with colored coat patterns and a black base 100% of the time
and she was negative for all other possible coat patterns.
She has had four beautiful foals, is an excellent mother.
She was previously started in work and has been tacked up
but she hasn't been backed yet. She
can be started under saddle in your preferred discipline.
She has a willing attitude and learns quickly.
