Andra is one of the much sort after Bendert daughters. Bendert was one of the most popular Friesian stallions in the U.S. he was seen by many in California and has been given some credit for the popularity that Friesians currently enjoy here.
Andra's papers are immaculate with all male ancestry achieving the approved stallion status and all female ancestry for four generations being Ster, Model or Referent.
Although trained to ride and drive when she was younger, Andra had a knee injury from a water trough accident and could not be presented for Star, as a result.
She is an exceptional looking mare and an excellent example of the Friesian breed, she received 2nd Premie from FHANA.
Andra is as gentle as horses come and an excellent mother she has had seven foals.

The quality of Isis breeding is exceptional. Isis' Dam, Oxana MLF not only is a 4th generation Ster mare and the keuring champion but she received a 1st Premie as did her dam, and the dams for two dam line generations before that.
Oxana's Dam "Cassie" was the Champion mare of North America in 1995. Oxana's sire "Pyr" was the 5 times US National Champion Stallion.
Isis' Sire, Victor has all four Preferent grandparents, he is the half-brother to the approved stallion, Anton! By the incredible stallion Oege (pref). One of the few Oege sons left, you can see a Video of this amazing stallion at http://www.mulberrylanefarms .
Since Isis' sire, Victor, has not been presented as an approved stallion she is registered with the FSHR rather than FHANA. She is one of the best bred purebred Friesian mares that is available for crossbreeding in the world. We intend to push the ceiling of the quality of colored Friesians with this exceptional mare.
For 2009 Isis is in foal to the Dutch Warmblood Art Deco, we are considering keeping this foal.
