Inspection Tour 2024 – over & out

The last days of this year’s DWB inspection tour has taken us to Ashley Garver’s beautiful Copper Hill in Louisiana, then on to Kansas where we had the pleasure of once again visitin Haras de Vess Dressage and finally to Washington, where we have had inspections the last two days.
First at Alli Helinski’s Lynden Equine and finally today, where we inspected no less than 17 horses at Janicki Dressage.

It has been an absolute pleasure and a privilege to be presented with wonderful foals, mares and even a few great stallions. Great horses and great people – what more could you ask for.

A more detailed report from the 2024 Inspection Tour will follow soon.

For now – we return to Denmark, a bit tired but mostly happy and thankful for the great hospitality we have been shown everywhere we went.

Another couple of great days of the 2024 DWB inspection tour🐴🫶
Thursday started cold and frosty at Bay of Plenty Stables in Washington, GA with beautiful thoroughbred mares and lovely foals and yearlings. Then on to Loxahatchee, Florida, where we inspected 8 horses this morning at Andreasen Warmbloods - among them, the stallion Surrey Hill Valtero which did so well that he was approved and given a 2-year breeding approval. Also presented was the 3-year-old mare Just a Secret who was awarded a bronze medal.
Thank you to our hosts, their teams and to everyone presenting horses - we had a wonderful time🇩🇰🇺🇸👍🐴
