[11/08/2009] The Netherlands Breeds the Best Jumpers and Dressage Horses
For the sixth consecutive year, the KWPN maintained its number one position as the best jumper studbook in the world.

For many years, the Hanoverian studbook held the leading dressage position, but now the KWPN has taken its place. Equally impressive is that Dutch-bred horses lead the individual rankings as well. For example, the Olympic champion Hickstead is still the best jumper, and the European Champion Parzival is the new top dressage horse.
