The dressage stallion inspection committee has been able to add five more stallions to the collection for the KWPN Stallion Show, including the Small Tour stallion Vaderland (by Vitalis) and two sons of Secret.

The committee, consisting of chairman Bart Bax, Johan Hamminga, and Wouter Plaizier, assessed 14 dressage stallions this afternoon. Two young stallions descended from Secret, as well as sons of Glamourdale and Total McLaren, received the green light for the second viewing on February 2 and 3 in Den Bosch. In addition, the 2016-born Vitalis son, Vaderland, has advanced to the next round, which means that his offspring will be evaluated. With a positive judgment, he only needs to appear in-hand in Den Bosch to receive an invitation for the five-day character assessment. Based on his sport performances at Intermediaire I level, Vaderland is exempt from other requirements.
