Offspring report
Offspring (foals) in 2007:
A uniform collection of well-developed riding-type foals with good rectangular-shaped conformation. The head is attractive. The poll has good length. The neck has good length and shape, with good muscling in the top-line. Standing, several foals have an underneck. However, the neck is used very well in motion. The wither has more than sufficient length and development. The shoulder has good length and sufficient placement. The back has good length and muscling. The loin is well connected with good muscling. The croup is slightly sloped with sufficient length and good muscling. The front leg has good length and is correct. The hind leg is often long and varies in conformation. The pasterns have good length, and in several cases, the hind pasterns are straight. The legs are more than sufficiently developed and of good quality. The walk is active and has good scope. The trot is uphill, with a hind leg that bends actively but should step farther under the body. The front leg should have slightly more knee action. The foals pick up the canter easily. The canter has good scope and balance. The foals move with good carriage and elasticity.
Short summary:
A uniform collection of well-developed, riding-type foals with good rectangular-shaped conformation. The trot is uphill, with a hind leg that bends actively but should step farther under the body. The front leg needs slightly more knee action. The canter has good scope and balance. The foals move with good carriage and elasticity. The collection consisted of 20 foals randomly selected by the KWPN, three of which were absent due to illness; and four foals selected by the stallion's registered party. The absent foals were inspected at their home location. Two of the foals are consistent with the findings described in this report. The other foal is not consistent with the findings described in this report with respect to its conformation, which is not as good as that of the other foals. Due to an injury, this foal was not evaluated on movement. The foals selected by the stallion's registered party are consistent with the findings described in this report. The foals were presented on sand footing. The quality of the dams is good. Foals shown: 21 (+3) of 245 out of mares bred in 2006. The scoring protocol used is as follows: moderate: 5; sufficient: 6; more than sufficient: 7; good: 8.
Breeding recommendation, 2007: Dreamcatcher can improve conformation, carriage, and the canter as well as contribute an uncomplicated temperament to dressage horse breeding. He is best paired with mares which have a correct front leg and well-developed hooves. The breeding recommendation is based on the performance test and the foal inspection.
