||||||||||||||
The eye-catching black stallion Jayson offers pedigree filled with top performers that will catch any dressage breeder’s attention. His sire, Johnson, had an impressive career including the World Equestrian Games, Olympics, and European Championships. As a sire, Johnson is proving equally impressive and is currently ranked #1 in the world on the WBFSH Dressage Sire rankings, ahead of his sire, the influential stallion Jazz who has ranked in the top 5 of the WBFSH Dressage Sire rankings for over ten years.
Jayson’s dam, Zamora B, has already produced 2 approved sons as well as an Elite and Ster daughter. Zamora’s oldest offspring Esperanto successfully moved up to Grand Prix in 2023 after winning the USDF Region 1 Finals at Intermediate 1 in 2021. Zamora’s sire is the revered stallion Negro. An impressive FEI competitor himself, he has an incredible record for siring Grand Prix horses, including Olympic and World Cup Champion Valegro and 2-time World Young Horse Champion Kjento.
Jayson convincingly won his NRPS Stallion Performance Test and went on to complete the KWPN Short-Term Performance Test earning multiple scores of 8 or above and 9’s for rideability and attitude. Jayson placed 6th in the PAVO Cup Finals in 2018 and 11th in 2019. He was also an Alternate for the WBFSH Young Horse Championships. In 2024 he made his CDI small tour debut with Charlotte Fry. His first foals have impressed in both Holland and the US with their modern type and strong movement. The KWPN recommendations say that Jayson can add size, rideability and attitude to dressage horse breeding as well as suppleness, strength and carriage in movement.

Breeding Information
Breeding Fees & Contracts
Mare Information
At Hilltop Farm we want to work closely with you and your veterinarian to ensure a successful breeding season and are available for questions at any time. The following information includes some basic suggestions as well as reminders on a few requirements for your breeding contract.
A Breeding Soundness Exam including a uterine culture is recommended, but not required, for all mares prior to breeding. If a mare fails to settle after two breeding cycles, Hilltop Farm will require a culture and cytology to be done at that time prior to any additional shipments of semen. We always recommend your vet checking your mare post-breeding to confirm ovulation. If a mare hangs on to a follicle longer than expected, it can be less expensive to ship additional semen than it would be to breed a second complete cycle. Getting your mare settled in foal is just the beginning. We recommend multiple pregnancy checks to help prevent cases of twins, misdiagnosed pregnancies, or lost time in the breeding season. The following schedule is what we recommend; only the first and fourth checks however are required by your breeding contract.
- 1st check (Required): 14-16 days post ovulation – optimum time for vet to pinch off a twin if more than a single ovulation is noted.
- 2nd check (Recommended): 28 days post ovulation – to confirm a viable pregnancy as the heartbeat normally appears by day 25.
- 3rd check (Recommended): 35-40 days post ovulation – to confirm maintained pregnancy prior to endometrial cup formation. Mares that slip foals early may not come back into heat.
- 4th check (Required): 55-60 days post ovulation – final confirmation of pregnancy in its critical first trimester.
Following your mare’s 14-16 day pregnancy check, please have your vet complete the Mare Breeding Passport received with your semen shipment and return it to Hilltop Farm. Any changes in pregnancy status after the 14-16 day check must be communicated to Hilltop Farm immediately. This Passport is used in all stallion reports to various breed registries and is used to generate a Breeding Certificate so that you can register your foal.
Cooled Semen
Jayson is not available via cooled semen. Please see Frozen Semen for shipping costs and details on Jayson’s frozen semen.
Registration Information
Your mare’s registration and approval play just as important of a role as the stallion’s approvals when determining registration options for your foal. Please keep in mind that in order to register your foal with a specific association, your mare may first need to be presented to that registry for approval. In addition to the registries a stallion is approved with, there may be additional registration options based on your mare’s eligibility and the stallion’s credentials. If you are confused at all on registration options for a potential foal, please speak with Hilltop Farm and your breed registry PRIOR to booking your breeding.
