Kakaline de Ticop and Koeur de Jalehone as well as pony foals Klea de la Motte Jean and Kaducee de Franc Jeu were named the Foal Champions at the 2020 French Breeding Championships which were held at the Pôle européen du Cheval equestrian centre in Le Mans, France, on 27 - 30 August 2020. 

Traditionally the French Breeding Championships take place at the ENE National Equestrian Centre in Saumur but due the corona pandemic and budget cuts, the event relocated to Le Mans and took place in its indoor arena instead of outside.

Bred and owned by Anne Jung, the black filly scored 88.40 points with a 9.2 for general impression. She was also the high scorer of the entire Foal Championships, making her the Champion of Champions. The Selle Francais bred Kyra de Villers (by Famous Grez Neuville x Olivi), bred and owned by Le Manoir, became the reserve champion with 83.75 points and 8.5 for general impression. 

In the colt category the Selle Français registered Koeur de Jalehone (by San Muscadet x De Niro) topped the board and received 83.90 from the judges' panel with an 8.5 for general impression. He is bred and owned by Lucie Demarez Pichavant. The reserve champion colt was Pendragon de la Morandiere, a KWPN registered Secret out of Talent (by Lennard).
