Twenty-two colts are participating in the 2025 NRPS stallion performance testing in Lunteren which began on 2 October 2025.
Nineteen stallions came from the licensing last March, while three were accepted to participate in the testing following an under saddle presentation at the start of the performance test.
The NRPS performance test consists of four viewing days on which the horses are inspected under saddle by the licensing committee. They are on 2 October, 6 November, 8 December 2025 and 15 January 2025.
On the first viewing day three newly presented 3.5-year old stallions were allowed to do the full testing. They are Marlies Woudenberg's KWPN bred Siffredi AZ (by Las Vegas x Prestige VDL), bred by Aane Zuurbier and ridden by Amber Hage; Gert-Jan van Olst's KWPN bred N’ Spartacus (by Nacho x Jazz), bred by H. Verthriest and ridden by Zandra Birkeland, as well as Marlies Woudenberg's 4-year old German bred Vintagio (by Viva Gold x Sorento), presented by Hans Peter Minderhoud.
