Seventeen More Colts Passed at 2003 KWPN Stallion Selection

November 19, 2003

On the sixth day of the 2003 KWPN Stallion Selection, seventeen colts from the second group of future dressage stallions passed and will go to the second round of the KWPN Stallion Licensing. The Ferro offspring Metall was the centre of attention with two colts making it to round two and five of them being pronounced "ster", which means that the ster stallion is entitled to a sort of "rematch" in the fall of 2004. However, the Olivi offspring scored the best with six colts passed.

Although Metall himself was in training with the Van Baalen stable in 2000, the stallion himself never rose to stardom in the show ring.

The complete list of passed colts is:
401 Lancet x Ulft
457 Metall x Flemmingh
467 Metall x El Corona
497 Negro x Animo
503 Negro x Burggraaf
538 Obelisk x Fruelingh
540 Obelisk x Ulft
545 Obelisk x Flamingo
559 Olivi x Damiro
560 Olivi x Michelangelo
561 Olivi x Cartush
564 Olivi x Hemmingway
568 Olivi x Sultan
569 Olivi x Zuidhorn
576 OO Seven x Havidoff
580 OO Seven x Bentley
581 OO Seven x Wolfgang
