The Regional Youngstock Evaluations are open to filly, colt and gelding foals, yearlings & two year olds (plus 3 year old fillies & geldings) bred to be competition ponies or small competition horses (up to 158cm unless SPSS passported when there is no height limit) regardless of breed, passport or colour. Each entrant will be evaluated individually for conformation and paces (in-hand & loose) with loose jumping as an option for those 2 and 3 year olds destined to be show jumpers or eventers. With our regular grading judge, Hans-Heinrich Brüning, flying in from Germany for all of the regional evaluations, all participants will get a mark/comment sheet (sent after the event) and those gaining at least 7.0 will be awarded a Premium Rosette unless they score 8.0 or higher when they will get a Gold Premium Rosette. Youngstock do not have to be SPSS registered nor do owners have to be SPSS members.
The lead judge at all the evaluations will be Herr Hans-Heinrich Brüning. Hans-Heinrich is a well known German judge and breeder of Hannovarian dressage and jumping horses at his family farm, Hof Brüning, which is well-known for its solid preparation work of horses for licensings, mare shows, stallion and mare performance tests as well as auctions, shows and championships. Hans-Heinrich has judged at the SPSS mare and stallion gradings since 2010.
Spectators are very welcome
