Hi everyone,
Did anyone use the Leatherdale's young stallion "Hampton" for a 2009 foal? The website at Hengststation Jens Meyer says his first foals have been born already but doesn't have any pictures or futher info. Would be happy to have any info even if it's a link to someone else's foal. Thanks!

Hi,
Hampton had foals on the ground last year (in Germany at least), as I saw some at Jens Meyers.

and how were they? movement, conformation, type? What mares crossed well with him based on seeing the foals?

Are you in Germany? if so, on the 11th of April, there is a stallion show at www.jens-meyer.com where some of the offspring are also shown.
I think it is safe to say that Hampton is producing very much like his sire. The foals I saw had good movement and pretty type (they were young). He is a more "substantial" stallion, so would cross well with some more lighter mares from what I have seen so far.

Hello. We have used Hampton for our Lauries Crusador xx - Pik Bube mare for a 2009 foal. Still waiting though.... but should be due any day now. I will be happy to let you all know and post some pics.

Hi,
our Hampton filly finally arrived on March 25, 2009 and we couldn't be happier.... Our Lauries Crusador - Pik Bube mare gave us an elegant, long legged filly with very nice, bouncy movements and a very laid-back, people friendly personality. I promised to post pics, so here they are ... check out our website at

What a lovely foal. She certainly got Hampton's next set. Really pretty!:D
BTW, I think there is a typo in your pedigree for Hampton (the pedigree table) as he is by Red Chili (Rotspon) and not Anka (Absatz)

I am really sorry for your loss Sacha :(
Brigitta : your filly is really lovely, I look forward to see more pictures of her.
We have 2 foals from Hampton to come : the 1rst one in May, 16th (mare by Wenzel - proper sister of Lancet) and the 2nd one at the end of June (from our own stallion, Hanoverian).
I'll follow this topic with a lot of attention :)
