Results of the breeding judgements 2014

When all the breedindshows are finished this year, it's time to look back and see how the results are for our breed, Ketilsstaðir/Syðri Gegnishólar 2014.This year we brought 18 horses out of our breed, to the breedingjudgements to get breeding evaluations. All of them exept one got first price, total score over 8,0.

14 of these horses were judged in Iceland and 4 in Germany, of the horses shown in Iceland 9 qualified for Landsmót and 7 of those where shown again there. 3 of these horses reached top ten on Landsmót. Álfhildur had a totalscore of 8.52 and won the group of six years old mares, Snekkja got a totalscore of 8,41 and the fourth place in the group of 5 years old mares and Álfastjarna got a totalscore of 8,23 and the seventh place in the group of four years old mares.

Of the horses shown in Germany two of them reached the marks for to get qualified for Landsmót, but over all these four horses got a similar judgement to what they already had in Iceland before.

In the fall we showed two horses again, we were not satisfied with the results they had this year so far, for many reasons. They both were much better and raised theire marks a lot.

We only showed two four years old horses this year, far away from our expectations. That should teach us once and for all to not talk about what we think about the 4 years old horses, with them things change very quickly and it is not possible to see in the front how far they can go that year.

These are the horses shown from our breed this year:
