After two out of the three competitions of the Blom Stallion Competition, Highway M TN (s.Eldorado van de Zeshoek) and Graziano (s.Baltic) lead the M- and Z-class, respectively. In the L-class four KWPN-approved stallions are tied at zero penalties.

In competition for four-year-old stallions, seven stallions have not made a single mistake in both Ermelo and Kronenberg. Amongst them the KWPN-approved stallions I Am Codex (Codex One out of Capitola Z by Calvaro Z, bred by Martien van de Bruggen from Goirle), Indian Gold (Cassini Gold out of S.Zarah 11 stb pref prest by Germus R, bred by J.J. van Dijk from Ruinerwold), Invictus (El Salvador out of Lababe van Hamma by Nabab de Reve, bred by and registered to Roelof Bril from Westendorp) and Ipsthar (Denzel van ‘t Meulenhof out of Vestha stb prest by Farmer, bred by Geert Moerings from Gastel). This promises another exciting round in Zuidbroek, especially because a range of stallions are right behind them with only four penalties. Suzanne Tepper steered the Kannan-son It’s Highlander VDK (out of Verite van de Kalevallei by Chin Chin, bred by Joeri Stevens and Geert de Sloover) to two time penalties in Ermelo and two clear rounds in Kronenberg, ranking the stallion on place eight now.
