Images | Visiting Jos Lansink - Part one

Valentina van't Heike's super cute baby who is by the equally cute King Julio - out enjoying the last taste of summer at Jos Lansink's yard in Meeuwen, Belgium. All photos (c) Jannicke Naustdal.

A lovely foal by Jos' eight year old stallion Aganix du Seigneur.

"Last year I had fourteen foals, but that is not something I normally would like – it was far too many," Jos laughed when we met him at home. This year he had a few less.
It's busy in the paddocks at Lansink's yard! "I think the horses need to be outside, and as little as possible in the box," Jos said during our visit.

The beautiful outside area with views to some of the grass paddocks and the outdoor ring.

Told you he was cute: King Julio is a seven year old stallion by Jos' former star King Kolibri.

The stable is very airy with lots of natural light from the windows in the ceiling.

The stallions have their separate stable.
Our location!

Every esteemed showjumping stable should have a replica of the double of liverpools in Aachen with neighbouring lake.
