As part of the stallion pre-selection process, stallions are pre-selected for the Verden stallion licensing and stallion sales. The requirements for pre-selection and licensing are adapted to the respective age and stage of development of the stallions.
From October 13 – 15, the preliminary selection of young stallions with a focus on jumping takes place in Verden. During these days, the selection committee reviews around 40 stallions, which must be presented in free-running, free jumping, and on hard ground. To the licensing, the stallions are also presented in free-running, twice in free jumping, and on hard ground.
