On Wednesday, 14 May 2025, the first field test for mares this year will be offered at the Verband's facility in Elmshorn. Around 40 mares have been registered for this event. It will start at 09:00 and spectators are cordially invited.
About field tests
The one-day field test is organised by the Holsteiner Verband in cooperation with the Pferdestammbuch Schleswig-Holstein/Hamburg. It begins with the evaluation of the free jumping by two judges. The mare is then presented to the jury again under her own rider in a section of up to four horses to check the basic gaits and rideability. This is followed by the external rider test to assess the rideability.
Here you can find the catalogue and the starter list for the field test on Wednesday, 14 May 2025:
