and active walk, an uphill and light-footed trot with power and an active canter with good length of stride. Improv is uphill and carrying in trot and canter. Earning an 81 for his test, Improv was awarded first place in his class. Te dressage foal class was won by Noah (Franklin).
Tis well-developed and well-muscled colt is built uphill and has a good dressage type. He uses his neck well in movement and has good articulation in his joints.

His canter is especially well balanced and carrying.
JUMPERS
Te four-year-old Just a Star (Sydney) was presented in the stallion class for jumpers and was awarded ster. Tis large and very scopey stallion could be more modern in his jumper type but is very well-schooled. He has a long-strided canter and seems to be careful, but could be quicker in his reflexes. He shows a lot of scope and opens well in his haunches. Just a Star also showed under saddle his scope and his ability for jumping. Just a Star received a 9 for his scope and 8.5 for his rideability. With a total of 79.5 in the IBOP and 80.5 in the GES Cup, he successfully completed the per- formance today. However for stallion approval his pedigree should be more convincing and he should be more modern in his type. Juliette-Niki S (Carrera) earned her ster predicate with her scope and her opening of her haunches. Tis long-lined mare could be more powerful in her take-off, but seems to be scopey with sufficient care. In the GES Cup, Juliette-Niki received a total score of 75.5. Top young jumper was the filly Natural Wonder
(Indoctro). Tis very expressive filly is well-proportioned and has an athletic body, long withers and quality legs. Her movement is light-footed with good suspension and balance. She has a very active use of her powerful hind leg. With 80 for conformation and 80 for movement, she is the leading jumper foal in the country so far. Second place was the well-developed, long-lined filly
Nuvolari de Lottie (Verdi). Nuvolari de Lottie has a good jumper type and a long-strided canter with sufficient power. Also the well-muscled colt Nonchalant LPR (Zapatero) has a supple and well-balanced canter, a well-shaped, mus- cled neck and a correct body. Fourth place was earned by the powerful filly Nvitation Only (Goodtimes). Tis filly has a strong topline with a well-shaped croup, and her canter has an active and powerful use of her hind leg.

48 January/February 2019 SPECIAL KWPN-NA SECTION
three-year-old Kadeaux (Bordeaux), who is well developed and has a good dressage type. Tis well-proportioned gelding is supple in his movement: in trot he shows good use of his hind leg, but especially his big-strided canter was well bal- anced and powerful. Te three-year-old dressage mare Kameo HF (Netto) earned her ster and keur eligible predicate. Tis expressive mare has a good topline and correct and lean legs. In trot she has a good use of her hind leg and shows sufficient posture, and her canter is active, long-strided and carrying. Te six-year-old Hibiscus (Charmeur) was awarded
keur, with a passing IBOP score of 78. Under saddle, this correctly-built mare showed a very good canter: active, en- gaged, good technique and body use. Especially in the sec- ond part of the IBOP, she showed her ability for collection in the canter. Her trot has good technique with sufficient uphill tendency, and her walk shows good length of stride. Te high score adult jumper was earned by the tall geld-
ing called Kensington (Ultime Espoir). Tis elegant and refined gelding is light-footed in his canter, has a quick take- off and good front leg technique, with sufficient use of his body. Kensington could be more consistent but seems to be willing and careful. Te four-year-old jumper mare Hannabel CP (Caranza
TSH) earned her ster predicate with her powerful canter. In jumping she has a powerful and upward takeoff, but could lower herself more in the neck. She opens well behind and seems to be careful with sufficient scope. Te best young jumper was an Arezzo filly called Novara
HMS. Tis long-lined, well-muscled filly has a long wither and a good topline, and her powerful canter has good articu- lation with sufficient body use.
