The Breyer Missouri Fox Trotter Model Horse, Prince Jester, is a stunning representation of the unique fox trot gait. The role of the jester has always been to entertain and this stallion has continued that legacy.
The liver chestnut son of Traveler’s Jester, out of the undefeated Missouri’s Charming Princess M., lived up to his royal lineage early, winning the 2 Year Old Amateur World Grand Championship, under trainer Geno Middleton in 1998, and capturing the attention of Randy Williams, manager/trainer for Richard Simon’s Ocala Foxtrotter Ranch. Impressed with the young stallion’s ability and pedigree, and seeking to promote the Missouri Foxtrotter breed in Florida, Prince Jester was purchased by the ranch with hopes of fulfilling that potential in the ring and breeding barn.
Prince Jester represents the defining characteristics of the Missouri Foxtrotter breed including beauty, strength and surefootedness. He delivers a stunning representation of the unique fox trot gait where the horse walks in the front and trots behind in a fluid diagonal trot. This comfortable gait is a favorite of everyone from trail riders to show ring competitors.
“Prince” exceeded all expectations by winning the 3 Year Old Open World Grand Championship and 3 Year Old National Breeders Cup Grand Championship in 1999, the 5 Year Old & Older Stallions & Geldings World Championship and 5 Year Old & Older Open Reserve World Grand Championship in 2001, and 5 Year Old & Older Open World Grand Championship in 2003.
Today, Prince Jester enjoys a more relaxed lifestyle standing at stud at Missouri Foxtrotters, LLC. in Buffalo, Missouri. Since 2000, he has sired 15 World Grand Champions, six Reserve World Champions, and six Futurity/World Champions. A stallion who epitomizes the “gentle” in gentleman, his sweet disposition, willing heart, and smooth style have served him well in his new roles as a therapeutic riding mount and demonstration horse in equine sports massage exhibits. A prince by name, but a king among horses, Prince Jester has earned his rightful place as an outstanding ambassador of the Missouri Foxtrotter breed.
