The
stallions featured in this Covering Plan are those that
have been put forward
by their owners for special attention by British breeders of Trakehner horses.
Each has met the full criteria for selective breeding in the Trakehner stud books:
normally a ‘grading’ and an approved stallion performance test.
In addition, each stallion has been subjected to Veterinary examination for relevant
infectious diseases, and the certificates examined by the Registrar. Mare owners
can expect that the keepers of these stallions have all the necessary papers
such as covering certificates, foaling returns and registration forms to achieve
full registration of the resultant foal.
There are, of course, many more Approved Trakehner Stallions available. It is
strongly advised that mare owners check with the Registrar before committing
to a covering to assure they will be able to achieve full registration of the
resultant foal.
Special attention should be paid to the use of chilled
semen from outside the UK. If sourced in the EU, this
must come from an EU Approved Collecting Station, lists
of which can be found on the DEFRA web site. For other
countries check with DEFRA. Full importation certificates
are mandatory, and copies must be submitted with the
foal registration. Insemination forms are in use for
both frozen and chilled semen, and all frozen semen
foals are subject to DNA testing prior to registration.
If
you have any queries please contact the Registrar.
Our aim is for you to have a trouble free experience
in breeding and registering a stunning Trakehner foal
that will take you to the top.
