Rousseau earns 'Keur' predicate at KWPN

DEN BOSCH - Next week at the KWPN Stallion Inspection in Den Bosch, an old acquaintance of Foal Auction Prinsjesdag will be honored: the now eighteen-year-old Rousseau. This Ferro son is approved by numerous studbooks, including the KWPN, and is famous for his many well-performing offspring. In Den Bosch, Rousseau will receive his well-deserved 'Keur' predicate from the KWPN.

In 1998 Rousseau (Ferro x Roemer) came up for auction at Foal Auction Prinsjesdag and now eighteen years later he is a real celebrity. Rousseau came into American hands via the KWPN Select Sale in 2000 and he has been at stud in the United States since 2006. Rousseau produced many approved stallions and successful Grand Prix dressage horses, including the KWPN-approved Ampère, the foundation sire Blue Hors Zack, Patrick van der Meer's new A-frame horse Zippo and other successful Grand Prix horses such as Watoeschi, Wilco V, Eventz Zamacho and Harmony's fiorano.
