Valentino coming up

Four-year-old stallion Valentino seems to aim for the same career as his stable mate Tjesse.  And he is definitely growing up!  Read what Regine Brockway of JRB Friesians told us:  My 4 year old stallion Valentino competed at the schooling show yesterday.  New 2011 Tests.  He won both of his T-3 tests with a 69.6% and a 70.5%.  Got several 8s in his tests, incl. gaits and impulsion.  Congrats!!
