Houston Proclaimed Keur Stallion

January 12, 2006

HoustonThe chestnut Dutch warmblood stallion Houston has been proclaimed Keur Stallion. With a dressage index of 174 points (reliability of 83%), Houston has proven his worth as a breeding stallion and after years of waiting, he finally got recognized by the KWPN society as a valuable breeding stallion.

"Based on the performances of his offspring at breed shows and in competition, Houston was proclaimed Keur," owners Riekus and Ilonka Veninga stated. "We want to thank all breeders and riders for the trust they had in Houston all these years."

Houston is a 1989 born KWPN stallion by Belisar out of Ciola (by Pion x Papillon) and is bred by Mr Gordijn from St. Oedenrode, The Netherlands. He competed at national small tour level under Dutch dressage riders Seth Boschman and Annemieke Vincourt-Krom.

Houston produced several licensed stallions, amongst which the 2002 KWPN licensing champion Symfonie (Houston x Columbus) and the 2005 approved Vincent (aka Valdez). Houston is stationed at Veninga's stallion station in Stuifzand, The Netherlands.
