The 5-year old KWPN licensed stallion Secret USB has received a new rider in The Netherlands. The reins have been passed on from Wendy Kuiken to Marten Luiten.
Secret USB is a Hanoverian bred stallion by Secret out of Soiree Noir (by Spörcken x De Niro). He is bred by C. Gaus in Tiddische, Germany.
Hanoverian in Holland
Secret USB is bred out of the dam line of international Grand Prix horses Sai Baba Plus.
He was first licensed at the 2023 Hanoverian Stallion Licensing in Verden, where he sold at auction for 47,000 euro to Dutch stallion keepers Joop van Uytert/Brouwer.
In April 2024 he was approved for Oldenburg and in November 2024 he voluntarily entered the 2024 KWPN Autumn Stallion Performance Testing in Ermelo, which he passed to obtain KWPN licensing. He is also AES approved. So far he has sired 98 foals that are KWPN registered.
Sport Career
The stallion has been trained and competed by Spaniard Alvaro Rodriquez Siscar and Dutch Wendy Kuiken.
The former rode him in the 2025 Pavo Cup to a 24th place in the semi-final. The latter rode him in the KWPN Stallion Competition qualifiers in the autumn of 2025.
Luiten has taken over the reins from Kuiken and will first present the stallion in public in a show block at the 2026 KWPN Stallion Licensing in 's Hertogenbosch.
