Last week was the assessment of the jumper stallions in the Stallion Performance Test. These stallions make progress and were easy to judge. A few days later, the assessment was also carried out by the stallion inspection committees for the Gelder and the dressage horses and it was decided to end the Performance Test for three stallions.

First in the arena was the three-year-old Gelder stallion Leopold P, a son of High Five U.S. out of a mare by Koss, bred by H.J. & F.J. Peters from Stokkum and M.H. Middelkoop from Spankeren. The stallion inspection committee decided to end the test for this stallion.

Ten dressage stallions were presented. The test was also terminated for Legend (Desperado out of Silene for the time being PROK by Ehrentusch, breeder J.G. van de Werken-Doruiter from Zuilichem and Ad Valk from Gorinchem). The son of Easy Game, Louis ter Kwincke (out of  D’eerd ter Kwincke elite EPTM (dres) PROK D-OC from Damon Hill, breeder A. Slippens from Erp) has been referred to a subsequent performance test.

Aansluitend werden tien dressuurhengsten voorgesteld. Voor Legend (Desperado uit Silene voorlopig keur PROK van Ehrentusch, fokker J.G. van de Werken-Doruiter uit Zuilichem en Ad Valk uit Gorinchem) werd het onderzoek eveneens beëindigd. De zoon van Easy Game, Louis ter Kwincke (uit D’eerd ter Kwincke elite EPTM-(dres) PROK D-OC van Damon Hill, fokker A. Slippens uit Erp) is doorverwezen naar een volgend verrichtingsonderzoek.

Today the next assessment of the jumper stallions is on the agenda and on Wednesday 22 May the participating dressage stallions will be reassessed. The final presentation of the performance test takes place on Saturday 1 June from 9 a.m. You are all very welcome to attend the presentation of the stallions in the Willem-Alexander hall.
