On 30 March 2013 the older dressage stallions Hofrat and Netto successfully completed their 5-day behavioural testing at the KWPN headquarters in Ermelo, The Netherlands, and were approved for KWPN breeding.
The Trakehner stallion Hofrat already had a successful breeding career in Germany with Hotline as his most famous offspring. The stallion has now moved to The Netherlands to serve the Dutch breeding market. The 15-year old Hofrat is by Gribaldi out of Habsburg II (by Guter Planet x Effekt xx).
Netto is a 10-year old Dutch warmblood stallion who was originally named Winsor. After his approval with the NRPS studbook he changed names to Netto. The stallion is by Negro out of Nathalisa (by Purioso x Nimmerdor).
These older dressage stallions only had to do the 5-day behavioural testing based on their performances in the dressage sport.
