Telstar OS
2000 Black Selle Francais Stallion 16.3 hands
Sire: Quick Star
Dam: Varda *retired Grand Prix Jumper*
Telstar was the first warmblood bred by Oasis. With amazing Selle bloodlines, Telstar has been nothing short of amazing to train and show. WIth his dam's fiery passion for speed, Telstar still manages to be trainable and allows his rider to take control of the course (something his dam often lacked). He has amazing rear end power and impulsion and has no difficulty in clearing a jump. He has really good precision and rarely misses. Unfortunately, Telstar was not born with his parents' abilities for the Grand Prix jumper ring. He is a top notch Amateur Owner level jumper and will make a spectacular Junior jumper horse (as a stallion or gelding). He has all the qualities one looks for in a GP Jumper horse, he just lacks that love that makes a champion GP Jumper. He does enjoy and love to jump, he just seems to find it overwhelming when he reaches a certain height.
Aside from his very promising jumping career, Telstar is also a very attractive stallion to look at. He has a very modern build yet still retains a very acceptable conformation. Telstar has already demonstrated his siring abilities with two very well put together colts out of two Selle mares; both colts quickly sold to other homes. We decided to offer Telstar in the auction because he is not very much needed in our breeding program and we would really like to see him go to a home where he will be much more appreciated as a breeding and show horse.
