Hans' comments: "We need good thoroughbred influence for warmblood breeding. The colt has a top walk and canter and is built uphill. He has a beautiful head, a good shoulder which could be perhaps a bit longer but this foal will make a very good dressage horse." Hans congratulated Cheryl for "putting the right stallion over the right mare."

No. 6 was Promise, a 3 month old black/brown filly by Prince Noir (imp)from UQ Winter Waltz (Winterkoenig (imp)/Mid Life Crisis xx) Owned by Tracey Zabell.

Hans' comments: "This foal has good colour, long legs and uphill construction. She is soft in the back which will make her comfortable to sit on for dressage. I really like this foal's true 4-beat walk."

No. 7 presented was Remi Westminster, a 3 1/2 month old chestnut colt by Weltmeyer (Ger) from Elite Mare Remi London Belle (Londonderry (Ger)/Remi Galliano by Graf Landau) - in foal with a recipient carrying an ET foal by Fishermans Friend (imp) Owned by Cheryl O'Brien.

Hans' comments: "Londonderry is very popular in Germany and we've had a lot of success with him. This is a big foal and a real stallion prospect. He has a beautiful face, good shoulder and loose gaits. This foal moves very well."

Hans turned to the audience and told us he prefers to have a horse longer in the back than shorter as it allows them to swing through the back more. He commented that he has a half brother to this mare in his barn by the name of "London Swing" a licensed stallion whom he has had great success with. He was very impressed with this mare and her well-bred Weltmeyer colt and whoever ends up buying this superb colt will indeed have a potential champion on their hands.

No. 8 was Dalwin Poet, a 2 month old brown colt by Prince Noir (imp) from Dalwin Aloof (Anamour (imp)/Looking Cool xx). In foal to Wyndemere (imp) Owned by Stephanie Rutherford.

Hans' comments: "I like this foal very much. He presents a very pretty overall impression but it's difficult to see the saddle position at the moment. He has good hindquarters and good loose and elastic gaits. Of course having four white socks would make him very popular and saleable."

"I am very happy with what I've seen here so far in regards to quality and the average level is very high. You are in the right direction for producing performance horses." says Hans.
