X-ray status
Since 2020, Hengsthaltungs GmbH has been publishing X-ray reports for its stallions in the breeding programme in order to meet the required standards of transparency and to provide you with a further factor to consider for successful mating. The assessment was expertly carried out by Dr Werner Jahn, a member of the national X-ray commission.
“With regard to the categorisation of the stallions carried out here, it should be noted that all these stallions fully meet the requirements for radiographic health. The stallions listed have been classified into the first 3 of 5 categories. Stallions classified into the 4th and 5th categories are therefore not used for breeding at all.”
