British Warm-Blood Society Stallion Grading

Of the 21 potential stallions who came to Hartpury for the British Warm-Blood Society (BWBS) stallion grading, nine were approved. Two of these were brought forward for the championship — Lynne Crowdens two-year-old Wesuvio, by the British-based Weltmeyer son Walentino out of Lynnes premium Sao Paulo mare, Savannah, and Katrina Cantrell-Bennett and Wala Ghandours four-year-old British-bred Santano (Sandro Hit-Brentano II). "It is difficult to choose one against the other when theyre different ages," said German judge Dr Helmut Gebhardt, who, with Dr Eberhard Senckenberg, presided over the grading. They selected the immaculately produced black Wesuvio as champion — the fourth consecutive title for Lynne Crowdens Woodlander Stud. "He is a very typey horse with solid limbs and hooves and he showed a good jump," said Dr Gebhardt. Wesuvio, aka Smokey, is out of the same mare as Woodlander Rockstar, grading champion here in 2004. "Savannahs a really super mum," said Lynne of the supreme champion broodmare at last years British Dressage breeding show. While Santano was bred by Cheryl Mitchell in Hertfordshire, he went to Germany and came back to England in May. "He was bought purely as a competition horse, so this is an added bonus," said Katrina Cantrell-Bennett. While good-moving Thoroughbreds are much in demand in warmblood breeding, it is not often that they come forward for grading. But this year, two were presented. "You can be proud of this one," said Dr Gebhardt of Tim and Vanessa Cheffingss good-looking home-bred seven-year-old Downe Right Rebel, who was following in the footsteps of his sire Mayhill, who also graded with the society. Carlton Sports Horse Studs older Chase The Ace, a son of the 1989 Derby winner Nashwan, is already an advanced dressage horse. Both Thoroughbreds showed good activity over jumps. Carolyn Bates, of Grafham Stud in Devon, added another two stallions to her stud card; Free Spirit, a coloured son of her prolific Jumbo, and the recently imported Wizard B, who is described as "a practical stallion, always ready to work". He is by the popular Trakehner Gribaldi. Others to pass the assessment were Rachan Sport Horses Wonderful Vant Zwaanenheike (Rhodium-Vincent); Lee Pearsons Refarge (Rohdiamant-Rosenkavalier), and Sue Griffins First Way (Furst Heinrich-Parademarsch). Many owners were disappointed, but Dr Gebhardt consoled them with the fact that the result here — a 50% pass rate — was no different to this years German licensing in Verden. "We are always looking to improve the breed," said Dr Gebhardt. "We look for type, suppleness, gaits and elasticity and our view is that movement and elasticity are most lacking. But the quality of stallions has improved enormously over the 20 years I have been judging in England."
