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 relative to the breeding direction jumping.
An average KWPN show jumper has a show jumping breeding value between 80 and 120.

Performance test report

Conformation:
Heathrow is a well-developed stallion with good rectangular-shaped conformation. The head is slightly long but sufficiently attractive. The poll has good length with a light head-neck connection. The neck has vertical placement with good length and muscling. The wither is well-developed and has more than sufficient length. The shoulder has good length and placement. The back has good length and sufficient muscling. The loins are sufficiently muscled and moderately connected. The croup has good placement, more than sufficient length, and sufficient muscling. There is sufficient length from the point of the hip to the point of the buttock. The front leg is constricted. The hind leg is correct but long. The pasterns have good length and are correct. The legs are of good quality but slightly fine-boned. The hooves are of good shape and quality.

Lineage:
Heathrow is by Der Senaat III, a descendent of the widely branched dam-line of horses including the KWPN stallions Van Gogh, Viento Uno W and the dressage stallions Charmeur, Zhivago, Grenoble, and Zuidenwind. With the Grand Prix stallions Dollar de la Pierre (a.k.a. Tlalloc la Silla) and Libero H gracing the first generations of Heathrow's pedigree, he is especially interesting for KWPN breeding. The dam-line traces back to its Holstein origins through Auhr, an influential Capitol I daughter. Bred to Animo, Auhr also produced the Grand Prix horse Puhr, ridden by Jur Vrieling.

Performance Test Report:
Heathrow is an honest and reliable stallion with a good temperament. He is very willing to work, has sufficient to more than sufficient trainability, and a good mouth. The walk and trot have more than sufficient scope. The canter has more than sufficient to good scope with sufficient elasticity. The stallion moves with a somewhat vertical neck position and more than sufficient balance. Heathrow jumps with good reflexes and sufficient body use. He jumps with more than sufficient to good form. Heathrow appears careful and demonstrates abundant to very abundant scope. Heathrow shows abundant talent as a jumper and gives his rider a more than sufficient feeling. 

Stable Behavior:
Heathrow is an honest and reliable stallion. He is easy on the ground and quiet in his stall. 

Veterinary Report:
No peculiarities noted.

Semen Inspection:
Expected fertility class: moderate. 

Breeding Recommendation:

Performance test scores

Offspring report

Heathrow showed a collection of well-muscled, appealing foals that are more than sufficient to well-developed with several times a downhill body direction. The foals have an expressive head. The neck is well-shaped but occasionally a bit vertical positioned. The pastern stance in front is a bit upright. The walk is generally correct, occasionally toed out. The trot is sufficient in length and shows more than sufficient elasticity and balance with a good impulsion. The canter is more than sufficient to good in length, sufficient in impulsion, balance and elasticity. 

Number of registered offspring 2016: 11 fillies, 8 colts
Number of foals scored at home 2016: 12 foals
Number of present foals: 5 foals

Breeding recommendation based on the performance test and shown foals: 
Heathrow can add attitude and scope to the breeding of jumping horses.
