On Sunday the 28th of August, the annual Falabella inspection took place at Manege Zwolle in Zwolle. From 10.00 onwards, the Falabellas put their best foot forward. The day started with the inspection of the foal classes. First the colts came into the ring, followed by the fillies. The beautiful colt Frisia F. Enzo of Carin and Ids Waterlander convinced the jury with his appearance. Later on in the day, he also became the reserve overall champion. After the foals, the enters and the two-year olds came into the arena. Here the yearling Falabellaland Bellatrix owned and presented by Hanneke Kolthof showed herself the best. She won the youth championship and, in the afternoon, the category 'Falabella with the best movement'. J&R Stables Gloria of Johan van der Veen and Rene van Teijlingen became the reserve youth champion, and she also won the title of 'Falabella with the most beautiful head'.
After all that young talent, we came to the studbook entries. Unfortunately, the stallion registered for the studbook registration had been cancelled. Fortunately, however, we did have a nice group in the studbook admission category of Falabella mares. This category was won by last year's overall champion: Kiara van Anté owned by John Bouwmeester. Elena van Brezal of Carin and Ids Waterlander, who became second in this section, was more convincing to the jury during the championships and became reserve adult champion. The titles of adult champion and general Falabella champion went this time to Azul Resto Cazador (see photo) of Yvonne van Werkhoven. This beautiful black stallion also managed to convince this jury team, as he also became general Falabella champion once in 2016!
Congratulations to the proud breeders and owners! Thank you, Leontien Ruissen for the beautiful photos and Minihorse.eu for the blanket and sponsorship.
