Blue Hors Zack by Rousseau/Jazz owned by Blue Hors has fully deserved the coveted title of Stallion of the Year in Danish Warmblood-
The 10-year-old stallion has already left a clear mark on Danish and international breeding, having sired no less than 22 approved sons og two gold medal mares. Furthermore, 85 percent of his daughters have passed their riding tests and are graded in the main studbook.
– I am quite sure that he originally was bought as an experiment. In that case, it must be the most successful experiment ever conducted in Danish Warmblood. Please give a warm welcome to Stallion of the Year, the elite stallion, said Poul Graugaard, spokesman of the licensing committee, in his introduction.
Then Zack himself entered the arena – along with his breeders, Trudy and Bas Wilschut from Holland, who for the second time visited the Danish licensing. As representatives of Blue Hors, Susanne and Esben Møller accepted Peder Hostrup Pedersen’s statuette and an oil painting of the stallion.
– We bought him for 430,000 euro at the KWPN licensing, said Esben Møller.
