Last year, around this period, BWP was proclaimed best jumping horse studbook in the world and BWP approved stallion Halifax vh Kluizebos (Heartbreaker x Fetiche du Pas), bred by Stefaan Delabie, was the best jumping horse in 2017 : 2 reasons for our studbook to be euphoric.
We knew that it would be difficult to equal that result in 2018. On the basis of the monthly published rankings, we already could expect to end as second best. And indeed, the new final rankings confirm that expectation. Again, something to be proud of!
KWPN takes the lead, with Zinius (by Nabab de Rêve) as the best jumping horse in the world.
The six horses who jumped BWP to the second place are :
11) HARLEY VD BISSCHOP : DULF VD BISSCHOP X CORONADO - Breeder : Tom Decraene
