The foals walk correct and remarkably long. The trot has a good impulsion, is good in length, posture and elasticity. The canter is good in length, has a lot of elasticity and a good impulsion and balance.
Number of registered offspring 2017: 15 fillies, 5 colts
Number of foals scored at home 2017: 19 foals
Number of present foals: 6 foals
Breeding recommendation based on the performance test and shown foals:
Herakles can improve the model and movement and add technique and reflexes to the breeding of jumping horses.

Conformation:
Haines GH is a more than sufficiently developed stallion with sufficient rectangular-shaped conformation and a downhill body direction. The head is attractive. The poll has sufficient length with a correct head-neck connection. The neck has slightly vertical placement with more than sufficient to good length and more than sufficient muscling. The wither is more than sufficiently developed and has good length. The shoulder has good length and placement. The back has sufficient length and muscling.

Lineage:
Haines GH is Carambole's fourth KWPN-approved son. The young stallion's pedigree boasts a series of performance sires. Among them is Carambole (s.Cassini I), who regularly excels in international Grand Prix-level show jumping under Willem Greve and puts his stamp on jumper breeding.
Haines GH's dam Stakkonita A is by Stakkato out of Cornita Z (s.Carthago). Bred to For Pleasure, Cornita Z produced Four Roses de la Vie Z, who competes in the 1.45m in the USA. Cornita Z is also the dam of a 1.30m-level mare by Quidam de Revel. Haines GH's great-granddam Jarnita is by Legaat, and her dam is the ster preferent mare Arnita (s.Nimmerdor). The dam-line continues with a daughter by the Thoroughbred stallion Erdball xx, followed by the keur preferent mare Ornita (Marco Polo x Sinaeda), who is a full-sister to the KWPN keur stallion Legaat.
