1997 16.2hh Chestnut Dutch Warmblood Mare

Sire: Jonggors Weyden

Dam: Inea (Daimler - Nabuur)

Preference continues to be a favorite mare for breeders and visitors. She is a very beautiful lady, smooth in her conformation, with active hind leg and good freedom and expression of movement. Her colt by Don Schufro in 2005 was awarded Premium status by the German Oldenburg Verband. In three frozen semen breedings in 2005, she produced four embryos, three of which were born in 2006.

At the September 2003 Oldenburg Verband Inspection, hosted by Yancey Farms, judges Evelin Vollstedt and Fritz Einhaus judged a total of 45 horses. Of the 21 mares evaluated, 20 were approved into the Main Mare Book. The high score of 7.7 went to my own KWPN mare, Preference by Weyden out of Inea by Daimler. She is a superb mare that showed excellent type, suspension and beauty. This score tied her for high score in the country that year. Dr. Vollstedt also said that this is the high score in the country for a non-Oldenburg mare.

In 2006, this same mare was the high scoring Non-Hanoverian mare in the country for the American Hanoverian Society and tied for top place of all mares in the country. She went on to win S.E. Regional Champion of the Cosequin/USDF Sporthorse Breeding Championships. The pedigree of Preference combines the strong Hanoverian dressage and Olympic Champion, Jonggors Weyden with athletic KWPN blood.
