Between September 14th and 15th, the Final for Young Horse Selection Tests (PSCJ) of Dressage, organized by ANCCE, was held at Dos Lunas Polo Dressage in San Martín del Tesorillo (Cádiz), and was broadcast live on the official ANCCE competition website and on ClipMyHorse.
This year, the jury was made up of several national and international judges, including:
- Francis Verveek (Netherlands)
- Elke Ebert (Germany)
- Mariano Santos (Spain)
A total of 84 PRE horses competed in the 4, 5, 6 and 7 year old levels of this Final.
ANCCE, for its part, offered two conferences given by Pedro J. Azor, deputy director of the PRE Stud Book (LG PRE ANCCE), in addition to a cocktail for breeders and riders.
With this Final the season of the Young Horse Cycles ends with a great participation, the largest to date. The participating PRE horses will also be genetically evaluated and will be eligible for the genetic category of Recommended Young Breeder. Those who obtain this category will be published in the corresponding catalog of breeders and in the PRE Stud Book for dissemination within the framework of the Breeding Improvement Program.
