Well, hard to believe, but another year's foal and mare inspection
has come and gone.
Yesterday we had Sebastian Rohde and Rainer Ahlers as our German Oldenburg Verband representatives.
My foals were born later than ever and the inspection was earlier than ever, so I can't say that my babies were as brilliant as they have been or will be, but still all were valued well. all received premium accolades and two "Foal of Distinction" awards. I also presented to mares that were nicely rewarded.
We had a nice group of people here and quite a number of spectators that took the time to come over and see all the nice horses (and Weser Ems ponies!)

| FRIGGA (Florencio - Pik Labionics) standing for her mare evaluation. She was very well admired and scored a 7.5 (Premium level) and was sited for her smooth topline, beautiful female type, good limbs, well set neck and correctness of conformation. Dean Graham and baby SELESTINA hang out in the background. |

SELESTINA (Sezuan x Frigga). Another awkward growth stage in this filly, but the judges saw her "Movement through her whole body", with suspension, control of her limbs and suppleness. They commented on her strong joints, nice frame and long legs. She was awarded Premium Foal as well as "Foal of Distinction".

SERAPHINA (Sezuan x Cherokee Morning Breeze) filly, received "Foal of Distinction" award and was praised for her balance, powerful hindquarters,strong topline, good substance without being coarse, nice type, arching, well set neck, correctness of limbs and her carrying power. With additional comments and discussion of her bloodlines that contribute to her athleticism and long term soundness prospects. —
3 year old JURA (Totilas out of Finale) was presented for mare approval, as she has an ET due next year (knock wood) by DE NIRO! This gorgeous creature really, really impressed our Inspectors, who commented that "she has to be the most beautiful Totilas they have ever seen". Thanks to her Mama, Finale (Furst Heinrich - Rubinstein). JURA is a 4th generation mare of my program stemming from my foundation mare, Helena TK. She scored a whopping 8.5 with many praises for her athleticism , self carriage, correctness, etc. Well, I think you can see for yourself. And a huge thank you to Dean Graham for stepping up at the last moment to take her for just one more round to the enjoyment of the jury and spectators. This same filly was 2 year old Champion filly for KWPN in North America last year
