Following a licensing on Wednesday 16 February 2011, the French Selle Francais breed society accepted 23 show jumping stallions and six dressage stallions for breeding.
Like the Belgian Warmblood society, the Selle Français studbook is extremely focused on show jumping breeding and needs to rely on a small group of devoted dressage breeders to boost the dressage influx within the breed.
Two dressage colts were approved for the SF studbook. They are Nicolet van Lierop's former 19-year old Grand Prix stallion Ferrolan (by Ferro x Ramiro x Abgar xx) and the German bred Lord Sunshine (by Lord Loxley x Enim Pascha/T).
Four stallions were accepted for the special SF dressage breeding program in partnership with France Dressage. They are:
- Little Charly (by Lord Loxley x Florestan)
- Sirtaki (by Sir Donnerhall x Painter's Row xx)
- Dr. Jackson (by Dream of Glory x Rubinstein)
- Lingh (by Flemmingh x Columbus)
