Sven is a very dark grey stallion with accented black markings powerful shoulders and hind quarters. He has the makings of a great stallion of size and conformational correctness. Sven stands 14.1hh* and weighs approx 1200 lbs. Sven is a big stallion with a sturdy, robust build. This big boned muscular stallion has a sweet gentle personality filled with curiosity, intelligence and a "want to" attitude. After seeing some of Sven’s daughters we decided to find an unrelated stallion to breed them too. We found what we were looking for in Odin.

| Odin first strikes you as a incredibly beautiful stallion. His head is exquisite with big eyes and fine lines. His movement is most impressive with long reaching straight forward motion. His canter is effortless. He really has nice movement and we can see it in his off spring already. He is a well balanced stallion with a good set of shoulders and very correct conformation. He will make an extremely athletic sire to many great offspring. |
