Danish Four-Year Old Champions and a Gold Medal

2009 Danish Warmblood Stallion Licensing

All of the seven four-year-old jumping stallions have passed the 70 days performance test with a score above 800 and despite their different origins they all together made up an even and homogeneous collection of young talented jumpers.

The Danish bred Diamant de Revel took the champion title and was awarded the silver medal. He is a very supple and powerful jumper of strong French bloodlines and out of an excellent Dutch dam line with Nimmerdor in third generation. Diamant de Revel is owned by Stald Cajus.

Blue Hors Rosoff clearly stood out as an excellent sport stallion type in the collection of four-year-old dressage stallions. He passed his performance test with a very good result and shows himself with much elegance and self-carriage under the rider. Not only was he the obvious choice for the champion title; he was also awarded the breeder’s medal in gold which has only been granted three times previously.

Blue Hors Rosoff is out of a thoroughbred mare which has produced incredible progeny, all of outstanding type. Rosoff stands at stud with his owners, Blue Hors Dressage.

Only those of the four-year-old stallions that have passed a 70 days performance test have been granted full license. Those with only a 30 days test are licensed for one breeding season and will have to come back to the licensing in Herning next year and in the meanwhile pass the 70 days test or score high in young horse championships.
