A check of the studbook at Boxtel on Saturday 1 October yielded Star with a second premium for four horses. One mare received an invitation for a possible promotion on October 15: Kroon mare Jildouke fan ‘e Homar Kroon Sport AA (Uldrik 457 x Nykle 309) from the Poppeliers family from Galder.
October 15th invitation to Jildouke
The tall, modern eleven-year-old Jildouke was nursing a filly this year and showed great endurance for her age, said jury member Corrie Terpstra, who was judging alongside Piet Bergsma. ‘He’s got a big forefoot, broad shoulders, a decent topline and tough, dry feet.’ With his sensible gait and running up with strong use of his hind legs, he accepted an invitation to inspection on 15 October at Exloo for a chance to win the Model.
Two Stars is three years old
Among the three-year-old filly book mares, two were included with Ster’s second premium: Jazz van de Hondshoeve Ster (Epke 474 x Felle 422) and Linske van de Terp Ster (Menne 496 x Tsjalle 454).
Wialda became Tjalda Kroonjuweel’s mother
Two studbook mares were also promoted to Ster with second premiums: four-year-old Ieke V Ster (Omer 493 x Norbert 444) and seven-year-old Wialda from Demro Stables Ster AA (Wimer 461 x Fabe 348). Wialda also made her Crown Jewel with her Star Declaration, her already prestigious mother (and grandmother of Teun 505) Tjalda fan Lutke Peinjum Model Sport Preferred Prestatie (Fabe 348).
The first premium stallion
A filly came home with an orange ribbon: the colt Tygo vd Roest (Matthys 504 x Tsjalle 454) from Albert de Bie of St. John’s.
