CHK 2022: Herman de Jong advisor on the hard

Last Tuesday, January 25, 2022, the Members' Council approved the appointment of Herman de Jong as an external advisor to the CHK jury.

In the list of staff members for the upcoming CHK, Ms. Trudi Houwen was already listed as a farrier, but there was still one position open. We are pleased to have found a skilled professional willing to take on this task. Herman de Jong is a farrier with an extensive track record in the areas of conformation, hoof problems, and movement. The breeding program also places a strong emphasis on these areas.

Jury Chairman Ben Platzer: “I’m glad that Herman will be assisting us, the jury, in evaluating the stallions. We’d like to draw on his expertise in this area.”
