Ajong, Champion of the 2008 KWPN Stallion
Licensing
February 3, 2008
 For the third year in a row, a Rousseau offspring
became champion of the KWPN Stallion Licensing. This
year, A.T. Rensen's bred Ajong was proclaimed Licensing
Champion in 's Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands, on February
2, 2008.
Ajong is a beautiful dressage prospect by Rousseau
out of a Flemmingh dam. The stallion moves with much
engagement and is naturally uphill. He is a correctly
moving champion with an outstanding conformation. The
bay stallion is owned by the trio Nico Witte, Tamerus
Beheer and Reesink Horses
Reserve champion of the licensing was Amigo, a UB40
x Krack C offspring bred by A.A. van de Koppel. This
colt moved with much power and pezzazz. The third ranked
stallion became Amarillo (by Tuschinski x Negro) who
moved with much expression. This black colt is bred
by P. Wijlaars. Other dressage colts in the premium
ring were Armani (United x Jazz), Amazing
Star (Flemmingh x Ferro) and an unnamed colt by
Uphill x White Star.
At the KWPN Select Sale, the auction following the
licensing, the third placed stallion Amarillo became
the price
highlight
of the auction. He sold for 200,000 euro but has been
purchased back by the owner. The same story happened
with the second highest priced horse Armstrong M.
This UB40 x Sandro Hit
offspring sold for 190,000 euro back to his owner
Mr. Lisma. Initially the sale of Amarillo was not
mentioned in
the
official
press
release
of
the
Select
Sale because a purchase back by the owner is not an
official sale. Two days after the auction, it became
known that Armstrong M also sold back to the owner.
The best selling stallion then turned out to be the
approved Special D x Sandro Hit colt. He sold for 125,000
euro to
the
IPS group of Ad Valk, Joop van Uytert, Mr. Kelders
and
Erwin Samuels. Stable Wijdewormer purchased two stallions,
including the Rousseau x Ramiro Z for 56,000 euro.
