Five 4-year old dressage bred stallions were shown to the KWPN Stallion Licensing Committee on 6 March 2014 in the first under-saddle presentation for late submission to the 2014 KWPN Stallion Performance Testing.
It was the final chance for the five dressage colts, which passed at least the second phase of the 2013 KWPN stallion licensing in 's Hertogenbosch, to be submitted to the 2014 KWPN Stallion Performance Testing in order to become licensed.
The licensing committee discussed their opinion and assessment with the owners of the five presented stallions and allowed all five to reappear on the first day of the KWPN Stallion Performance Testing, where they will be presented by their own riders before final acceptance to the testing.
The participating colts in the under saddle presentation were:
- Floret (by Ampère X Rubinstein I)
- Filemon AK (by Apache X Welt Hit II)
- Fleetwood Mac CL (by Gribaldi X Havidoff)
- Flintstone B (by Vivaldi X Ferro)
- Fontainebleau (by Ziësto X Ferro)
The spring 2014 KWPN 70-day performance testing starts on 17 March 2014 in Ermelo, The Netherlands.
