Mochyndaear and/or Hexagon
Mochyndaear Dragonfly in Amber is a Dutch crossbred KWPN x Welsh B pony by Grand Prix stallion Double Dutch out of Kenwoods Princess Milly (by Kenwoods Tomahawk x Kenwoods Steven).
He is bred by dressage judge Mascha Reijs. The chestnut stallion sold to Thamar Zweistra and Leunus van Lieren during the 2022 NRPS licensing held at Van Lieren's own stable.
The new owners dropped the breeder's name and replaced it with their own, Hexagon's Dragonfly in Amber. Under Sophie van Iwaarden, the stallion won the 2022 Dutch Young Pony Championships in the 4-year old division.
In 2023 he was the high scorer of the 2023 NRPS Stallion Performance testing where he got 8 for walk, 9.5 for trot, 8.5 for canter, 10 for rideability, 9.5 for self carriage, and 9.5 for dressage potential.
