After a 50-day-test seven three-year-old dressage stallions have been added to the KWPN stallion base. Each one showed to possess the desired rideability and character, dressage talent and quality.

Seven of the eight in the final exam participating stallions passed their test with a great score. “We have clearly selected on the premise of functionality and rideability. The good grades we were able to reward, reflect what the stallions have shown in the past weeks. As a committee, we are very pleased with them,” says chairman Bert Rutten afterwards. “Even with the large audience present, the stallions put up a good performance.”
