Stallion competition Ermelo

Yesterday evening the second round of the stallion competition was on the program in Ermelo.

The stallions Everest, Secret Lover, O’Frederic and Pjethro made their appearance. The Glamourdale son Powerdale could unfortunately not participate due to an infection.

The first stallion to compete in the combined class Z / ZZ was Everest, he also appeared as first in the ring. With his energetic performance he could get the appreciation of the jury: “The trot has a lot of technique, where he keeps his rhythm and technique in the lateral gaits. The canter is good with a lot of impulsion and he does the flying changes ver well. The stallion has a lot of willingness to work and is very diligent, he is a very talented and appealing stallion”.With a score of 82.5 points he was the winner of this class!

After that it was the turn of the five-year-old stallions O’Frederic and Secret Lover. O’Frederic showed himself from his best side and was maybe even better than in Kronenberg. “The long-lined brown stallion walks with a lot of space, the trot has good impulsion, tact and swing, the canter stands out with his impulsion in the hind leg. In general, he uses his body a lot and he’s a pleasure to watch”.Secret Lover was the last starter in this group to appear in the ring. The black stallion can convince in all three of his gaits, which were therefore awarded with a 9. Unfortunately, Secret Lover was startled by something that happened in the audience during the right canter, which caused him to suffer from tension for a short time. If this had not happened, the score for the canter might have been even higher, as would the score for the harmony. But with a top score of 87.8 points, he managed to seize the second place.

Chestnut stallion Pjethro is an impressive stallion who can move like no other. Unfortunately, he got some tension in the ring which prevented a top ranking, but the fact is that this stallion has a lot of potential!

The next round in Groningen is in the beginning of January and we are already looking forward to it!
