Studbook - NEWS
West Kington Stud now stand the
thoroughbred and former flat racing
stallion Jamhoori (2008) who was also
recently assessed and accepted into the
studbook. By the Dane Hill son Tiger
Hill who stood at Dalham Hall Stud, he
is out of Tanasie by Cadeaux Genereux.
Jamhoori gained 5 wins in the UK and
another 7 in the UAE while his dam was
a winner in France. Jamhoori is now
available for stud duties.
SHB(GB) Chairman David Dixon said;
“SHB(GB) welcomes entries from native
breeds and thoroughbreds for grading
although any native coming forward
must first be approved with its own
breed society. We were delighted to
grade the Suffolk stallion who with
selective breeding should produce good
heavyweight horses.”
New Plaques
Craikhow Hall Jensen was not only the
first Suffolk to grade with the Society
but he was also the first stallion to
gain one of our new hot-off-the-press
‘graded stallion’ plaques that from
now on will be awarded to owners of
all stallions that pass gradings. The
attractive silver and green plaques
have kindly been sponsored by a
member of the SHB(GB) Council. Any
owner that has a previously SHB(GB)
graded stallion can buy a stable door
plaque for the price of £38.50 including
post & packing. Please apply to the
office.

Please Check Applications
It is a busy time of the year in the
office for registrations due to the influx
of this year’s foal registrations. As
many come in around the same time
the system can easily come under
stress. One of the main reasons for
a slowdown is incorrect, or lack of,
paperwork and payment which means
extra work for everyone as quite often
they will have to be sent back and put
on hold. It really helps the office staff
and to keep the process moving if,
before sending in your application, you
please check that all the paperwork
is present, complete and signed and
that you have included the correct
payment. Please remember that having
Joris completes his first one-day event at Allerton Park
your foal DNA tested means that the
breeding of the foal will be verified and
recorded forever. DNA testing, (which
does take three weeks to verify) is
however not just about the now. It is
important for future breeders to know
the bloodlines and especially important
to verify mares who one day might
have sons, daughters, grandsons and
granddaughters forward for grading. A
lack of breeding information quite
simply prevents them being properly
included in studbooks and in the case
of stallion prospects, those without
three full generations of pedigree are
not accepted for grading.
