Fact Box Introduction

Over the next few months this column will become a regular feature in order to make it easier to understand the rules and regulations of the Hanoverian Studbook which began in Germany over 250 years ago in the Hanover area – hence the name (and by comparison, a mere 34 years ago here in New Zealand).

Here are some of the topics we have in mind:-

• History
• Hanoverian and Hanoverian approved Stallions
• Stallion licensing
• Ownership
• Membership
• Mare Studbooks
• Foal Registrations
• Jumper Breeding Programme

Questions will be most welcome – we are sure there are many, so send them in to Robin Potter.
