Several of the older stallions licensed in Herning this year represent relatively new and rare bloodlines; not least the champion of the refinement stallions, the black Arabian “Zonyx”.
Champion stallion “Zonyx” was described as an elegant and well-proportioned stallion with a lot to offer the warmblood breeding.
In the group of older dressage stallions the 9-year-old Dutch son of Jazz “Johnson” took the champion title. He is well-recognized abroad in sport as well as in breeding.
5-year-old “Toulouse” became the champion among the older jumping stallions. He carries interesting Belgian and French bloodlines and was described as the prototype of the future jumping horse.
The judges selected “Bøgegårdens Boney M” as champion of the 4-year-old dressage stallions. Boney M is a very supple and well-functioning horse.
The Aage Ravn Challenge Cup is awarded the best Danish bred 4- or 5-year-old dressage stallion with an approved performance test and this prize went to “Tailormade Rush” which was also awarded Danish Warmblood’s breeder medal in bronze. He is a large-framed and masculine stallion with very good gaits.
“Heart-Ache BS” became 4-year-old jumping champion stallion. He was awarded Danish Warmblood’s breeder medal in silver and also got the prestigious Elvin Rasmussen Challenge Cup as the best Danish bred 4- or 5-year-old jumping stallion with an approved performance test. “Heart-Ache BS” was praised for his supple and powerful jumping with great capacity.
