Sixteen 5-year old and twelve 6-year old young KWPN bred dressage horses have been long listed for Dutch team selection for the 2015 World Championships for Young Dressage Horses after the first Dutch WCYH observation and selection trial held at the KWPN headquarters in Ermelo, The Netherlands, on Thursday 23 April 2015.
Candidate combinations were presented under saddle in an individual test and assess by the Dutch selection committee, which consists of Wim Ernes, Arie Hamoen and Gert van den Hoorn. Normally Johan Hammingo is a committee member, instead of Hamoen, but as Hamminga has horses in the selection process he was replaced as a judge. Hamminga will be helping with the training of the youngsters later on in the process.
The first selection trial led to a long list of 28 horses. The second selection will be held Monday 15 June. On 4 May a Wild Card day will be held for horses who were unable to be present on Thursday for various reasons.
