Fourteen young colts have begun the 2016 Danish Warmblood autumn stallion performance tests in Torring, Denmark, on 24 October 2016. The young colts will be tested for 35 days to complete their licensing process for the Danish Warmblood society.
Under the supervision of testing director Torben Frandsen, the colts will be assessed on their rideability, potential, quality of gaits and character.
For dressage two 3-year olds and one 4-year old will be tested and three 3-year olds and one 4-year olds will go for both disciplines (dressage and show jumping). Four of those seven dressage stallions are owned by Andreas Helgstrand. Seven will be tested exclusively as jumping prospects.
The dressage bred stallions participating in this 35-day autumn testing are:
- Baron (HAN, by Benicio x Sir Donnerhall x Friedensfurst) - owner: Helgstrand
- Frontline (DWB, by Furstenball x Zack x Solos Carex) - owner Vivi & Christian Vang Lauridsen
