Nordic Blue Hors has already achieved a series of great rankings together with Danielle Heijkoop. He made his debut at our Stallion Show under his new rider Danielle Heijkoop and what an impression they made together. So much quality and technique in his movement, it was a joy to see. Nordic Blue Hors is still a very sensitive horse that must be treated with love and respect because he can get scared quickly and we try to protect him from himself as much as possible. The judges also saw his qualities during the Pavo Cup 2023 and scored an 8.8 for the walk, 8.8 trot, 8.5 canter, 8.6 harmony and an 8.8 for the overall impression, which put him in a very nice 5th place in the final final. They also achieved very good scores in the KWPN Stallion Competition and Subli Cup, where they also reached the final. His walk is also truly excellent, but due to tension this is often not fully expressed. We hope that by participating in many small national competitions this will fall into place and we see a very bright future for this combination.

He passes on his naturally very strong qualities to his children. Strikingly moving offspring that walk with a lot of technique come from his first small crop, including the strikingly special foal Tommy G, Nordic Blue Hors x Vivaldi x Charmeur, bred by Rianne Gerritsen.

2022

Nordic Blue Hors may not be the most spectacular stallion yet, but a horse that technically walks with a very strong connection and as we said before; We have a lot of expectations for this talent that still has to fully mature. During the Pavo Cup he made a strong impression under Sem Stiemer and was one of the best KWPN stallions of his year with a 7th place in the semi-final and a 10th place in the final. He walks exceptionally well with a lot of power, a strong, stable canter and a trot that is very good in basic and lateral gaits, but not yet that spectacular. Knowing the Totilas and Gribaldi blood well, this will certainly continue to develop very well. Some very special foals were born from his first very small crop, including Stromae from the mare Sissy (by Lorentin), who is also known as the mother of In Style.

We are more than pleased with the KWPN approval of our stallion Nordic Blue Hors (by Totilas). We have great expectation for this young stallion who shows already lots of talent for collection and has so much power in his gaits. Nordic Blue Hors has already made a huge impression during the KWPN Stallion Show 2021 that is where we, together with Blue Hors Stud, came to a decision of acquiring him. Nordic Blue Hors is bred by Sjef Janssen together with Stal de Beukenvallei. We think we have a truly worthy follower in him in the Totilas-dynasty.
