Bjorsells Briar Accepted for the KWPN Studbook
February 25, 2003
 The
Swedish Grand Prix dressage stallion Briar has been
accepted for the KWPN studbook. Briar 899 is known in
the competition ring as Bjorsells Briar. Under steady
rider Jan Brink, Briar competed in the Olympic Games
in Sydney and the World Equestrian Games in Jerez .
This winter season Briar has been successful shown in
World Cup qualifiers, and this past year he was the
second highest placed dressage stallion after Krack
C in the world rankings.
Briar fulfilled the veterinary requirements and his
collection of offspring was of a good enough quality
for Stallion Inspection Committee. Briar has been accepted
on the same basis such as "foreign" stallions
Darco, Quidam de Revel, Narcos II and Biotop.
The 13-year old Briar was bred by his owner Hans-Yngve
Goransson in Sweden . His sire is Magini, who is by
Maraton (by Utrillo). The dam Charis is by Krocket (by
Kaliber) out of a mare by the Hannoverian stallion Illum
(by Der Lowe xx.) Briar is available through the stallion
station Tivoli, managed by the family Zwartjens in Raalte,
The Netherlands.
