Hummer (Charmeur x Daddy Cool) comes from the breeding of J. Duivenvoorde from Alkmaar and is a son of the mare Caresia, the half-sister of the KWPN-approved stallion Dream Boy – also the sire of winner Hannelinde TC. Hummer is owned by JJ Schalekamp from Dordrecht and scored 51.5 points in the final. For his canter Hummer scored no less than a 9.5 and for trot and general impression Hummer received a 9!

Casall-son Cascador EB to Den Bosch

ERMELO – The successes of the Prinsjesdag stallions at the KWPN Stallion Show in Ermelo just keep on coming! The very striking Cascador EB (Casall x Lavaletto) of Jan Vink of Black Horse Stud convincingly earned a ticket for the second viewing in Den Bosch.

Cascador EB, bred by LVP-Stables from Drongen, jumped from start to finish with extra reflexes, technique and commitment. Its charming exterior also convinced the jury. Cascador EB comes from a fantastic dam line: dam Princess IV already produced the 1.50 m show jumper Fascination, grandam Hagitta already produced the Holsteiner Verband-approved Grand Prix jumping stallions Casario I and II and great-granddam Ragina is also the dam of the famous stallions Concerto I and II.

Success horse Anoraline sold abroad

Thanks for the training, the effort and all the successes! It is and remains a fantastic horse with such a nice character. We are going to miss her!”

Anoraline has had a successful career with, among other things, a victory in the pre-selection of the Pavo Cup in 2010, the victory in the Subli Cup final for six-year-olds in 2011, a fourth place at the Dutch Indoor Championship ZZ-Zwaar in 2013, a silver medal in the Dutch Outdoor Championship Small Tour in 2014 and various international classifications in Rotterdam and Arnhem.
