Genetic profile

The breeding values have been estimated using information from sport, inspections and talent tests and in addition the available DNA profiles (genotypes).
The DNA profile of the horse itself is included here.
The breeding values are presented in relation to the dressage breeding direction.
An average KWPN dressage horse has a dressage breeding value between 80 and 120.
