Stallion Kjento named "Dressage Horse of the Year" by the KWPN studbook!

The year 2022 was a successful one for the Van Olst family: two well-known black stallions made a name for themselves as one won the World Championships in Herning in August and the second, who was seven years old in 2022, made it to the top of the podium at the World Championships in Ermelo in his age category.

A more than promising career is in store for Kjento

Ridden by British rider Charlotte Fry, Kjento shows that he has everything it takes for the big sport: winner of his performance test at 3, he won the World Championships at 6 and repeated the same performance at 7. This son of Negro with a dam by Jazz is taking the same route as Glamourdale (Lord Leatherdale x Negro), also ridden by Van Olst rider Charlotte Fry.

Kjento named "2022 KWPN Dressage Horse of the Year"

Almost 6,000 votes were cast to decide the favourites, and it is the very good son of Negro who will be rewarded at a special ceremony to be held during the KWPN Studbook Stallion Approval, from 1 to 4 February.
