The breeding districts Bordesholm and Rendsburg-Eckernförde registered their mares at another mare inspection event at the third of the four new central locations - this time in Tasdorf. They received organisational support from the breeding district Plön, for which no mares were registered this year.
Bordesholm
Four mares from the 2022 crop made it to the final ring of the breeding district Bordesholm, two of which will be allowed to present themselves again at the Verband mare show on 15 June in Elmshorn: The winning mare by Central Park-Leandro (Jens-Peter Timm, Norderstedt), line 6111, and the reserve winner by Clarimo-Quibery (Harm Sievers, Tasdorf), line 1298.

Rendsburg-Eckernförde
A daughter of Conthargos out of a Quinar dam bred by Peter Domenus (Borgstedt), line 3317, advanced to become the champion mare of the Rendsburg-Eckernförde basket district. The reserve victory went to a mare by Colman-Diarado (Ulrich Steuber, Osdorf), line 730B. Both mares have punched their ticket for the Verband mare show in Elmshorn.

Generous vouchers for the breeding heroines of tomorrow
Holsteiner mares are the basis of success - and to reward outstanding performers and their breeders, two stallion stations have generously sponsored the mare registrations this year: Holsteiner Verband Hengsthaltungs GmbH is awarding a free jumper of a three to five-year-old Verband stallion for the champion mare and reserve champion mare of each basket district. In addition, the Maas J. Hell stallion station will provide each additional mare that makes it to the final ring in her basket district with a stud fee voucher.
Many thanks also to the team at Tasdorf Stud for providing the facilities!

The four central inspection centres in Schleswig-Holstein
Mare inspection:
At the mare inspection, the mares are presented in hand and in free running and receive marks for type, topline, front foot, hind foot, walk, trot and canter. The mares can receive a special award (premium) based on the scoring and certain pedigree requirements. From 2025, mare inspections in Schleswig-Holstein will be carried out at four central locations and no longer individually in the breeding districts.
