Last stallion competition in 2022 was yesterday in Ermelo

Danish bred stallion My Blue Hors Santiano (by Sezuan/Blue Hors Romanov, bred by Straight Horse) with Renate van Uytert-van Vliet won their second stallion competition towards the finals taking place at KWPN main stallion licensing

The judges comments about My Blue Hors Santiano:

“This stallion shows good expression under the rider. The walk is active, spacious and has a lot of suppleness. For a higher mark, he could show a bit more open frame 8.5. The trot is nicely uphill with an expressive foreleg and a good impulsion, but he could develop a little more power from the hindleg 8.8. The canter shows a good jump and impulsion. The stallion shows that he can switch gears easily, canters nicely uphill and the hind leg steps well under 9.2.” The harmony and total impression were marked with a 9.0 and 8.9.”

The walk

When watching the competitions you sometimes do not agree about the judging, and for yesterday´s the judges did obviously miss out the top quality of the walk from Nalegro only scoring 8.5 as they comment the walk as a bit hurried. Still the quality of each step was clear and supple searching the riders hand and for sure a clear 9,0!

NEXT AND LAST STALLION COMPETITION IS 3 JANUARY IN EXLOO.
