Oakley KVS is by Phin Phin, a KWPN-approved stallion who was known for his extremely fast take off, fighting spirit and good technique. His sport achievements, under Roelof Bril, include winning the Gyon Grand Prix and being a two-time champion at Arnhem.

As a sire, Phin Phin is known for passing on his fast reflexes, length and looseness in the body and good movement. Recognizing his breeding accomplishments, Phin Phin is designated a keur stallion by KWPN and a studbook ambassador by BWP.

Going back a generation, Oakley’s dam sire Cavalier is also famous in both sport and breeding. Competing as San Patrigano Mister under Frank Sloothaak, Cavalier won more than 40 Grand Prix, puissance and speed competitions - and as a stallion, also achieved KWPN’s keur predicate for the quality of his many offspring in sport. And going back one further, Oakley’s great grandsire is the famous Nimmerdor, named the Netherlands’ “Stallion of the century” in 2000.

On his dam side, Oakley is from Sina mare line 20, breeding line 398. His dam Gazelle KVS was out of our ster and prestatie mare Obligeant II, who also produced 1.45m jumpers Utah and Vini Vidi Vici, and 1.35m jumper Cameleon KVS. Please see our brood mares page to learn more about this impressive mare line.

Oakley’s full sister Malibu KVS (2018 Phin Phin) and younger half-brother Peter Parker KVS (2020 Cosmos BH) are both recently started in sport. Malibu, sold by us in 2024 after producing two lovely fillies, is competing at 1.25m, and Parker, who started his career in spring 2025, at 1.0m.

In summer 2025, Oakley is back in full-time training after being under extended stall rest to regrow a 2024 hoof resection (required to eliminate white line separation he’d contracted earlier that year). Now returning to full strength, Oakley will start competing at 1.0m again this fall.

Before his hiatus, Oakley’s show experience included:

Spruce Meadows February Classic II (February 23-25, 2024): Clear in the 0.90m and 1.0m clear and one round events.

Thunderbird Western Family (July 4-9, 2023): Clear and third place in the 4 year old 1.0m clear round competition.

Thunderbird West Coast Classic (June 27 - July 2, 2023): Competed at the 0.9m and 1.0m levels.

Ponoka Indoor Series Jump Start (February 2023): Clear in the 4 year old competition and at 0.8m.

Oakley is a mellow and athletic young horse with a willing “I can do that” attitude. His groundwork is smooth and fluid. He jumps with power and scope, and is learning to use his long frame and strength.
