Yersie C. Kroon Sport AAA (Hessel 480 x Beart 411) achieved a magical AAA score for its harness test on Thursday, February 24, with 93 points. Fjitse Mjitske P.

Triple triple A

History was written in Wergea. With 89 points for IBOP under saddle, 89 for IBOP driving (two months ago), there is still one discipline left for Yersie C. to score a triple A rating. With Udo de Haan at the reins, Kroon Sportmare scored no less than 93 points in his harness test was on Thursday, February 24th. His triple A score was a unique achievement in the studbook.
It was a pleasure for jury members Corrie Rave and Hergen van Hall. ‘It’s definitely a pleasure to present a horse like that, for us it’s a pleasure to watch.’ Yersie received a 7 for his slightly overzealous walk, but with confidence he easily scored between 8 and 9 in the other components. His beautifully styled front legs while running were rated 9, as well as his posture and balance.

Yersie’s half-sister is also AAA

The only seven-year-old Yersie was bred by 2021 Breeder of the Year Gert Cent and he is owned by Yvette Pen of Heelweg. IBOP has started well for Yvette. Hardy fan ‘e lytse Generael (Jehannes 484 x Beart 411), Yersie’s half-brother, has scored 82 points, also a AAA score. Corina van den Bunt won the Friesian Talent Cup with high spirit up to 8 in running, balance and impulsivity. With this good score, Hardy’s mother, Uwkje, became C Ster Sport (Beart 411 x Wicher 334) Performance.

Crown for Fjitse Mjitske P.

There were more horses to make it a memorable day. Fjitse Mjitske P. (Beart 411 x Tsjerk 328) scored 82 points in his driving test with Jelmer Chardon and thus became the definitive Crown. The mare, bred by Jan Peeters, scored 8 for canter and impulse. There was also an increase in marks for Fenna DB (Hessel 480 x Fetse 349), a five-year-old mare who is sure to be a Star after her IBOP with Lisanne Veenje in the saddle with 69.5 points.

There was also a good score for Wende van de Zunne Kroon AA (Alwin 469 x Beart 411), known as a harness topper. At the last Horse Inspection he won the Horses2fly sporting competition for horse harness. He scored 81 points in a driving test with Henk Hammers – and 8.5 for his beautiful run. In 2020 he has scored 79 points on his IBOP harness test.

Ingeborg Klooster rode the Indy C van de Wijdewormer Ster (Omer 493 x Dries 421) to her AAA rating of 84.5 points, with 8.5 for the run. Four-year-old Ilja van de Anervaart (Mees 497 x Beart 411) is still classified as a book mare, but has recorded an IBOP of 79.5 points with Annemieke Straaijer. Hessel V. fan de Miedwei (Jouwe 485 x Doaitsen 420) achieved the same number of points in the driving test as Age Okkema.
