The Warmblood Studbook of Ireland (WSI) and our partner, the Royal Warmblood Studbook of the Netherlands (KWPN), are working with stallion owners to develop an approval system Irish breeders believe in and foreign buyers support.
In this booklet we present information you’ll need to guide yourself and your stallion through the approval process. We also have included forms you will need to complete, sign, and return to WSI.
If you need more information or advice please contact WSI Administrator, Dawn Kelly ([email protected] or 087.222.9701) or Breeding Director, To m R e e d ( t o m @ i r i s h - w a r m b l o o d . c o m o r 087.827.4831). We are here to help you.© 2017 WSI

WSI and KWPN: Working with stallion owners to develop an approval system Irish breeders will believe in and foreign buyers will support.
Stallion Owners Booklet
3 March 2017
WSI Philosophy
Our stallion approval process is guided by our values:
1. WSI will approve a stallion only if the inspectors believe he has a very high probability of siring international showjumpers and/or eventing horses and/or dressage horses.
2. WSI will approve senior, middle-aged, and young stallions. Approving older, proven sires is important for a studbook and for its members, and especially those members who wish to sell their foals. But rapid genetic advancement can come only through the use of modern, young stallions bred to meet the demands of today’s sport requirements. So WSI is always on the look-out for superior young stallions and encourages their use.
3. WSI will disclose all data about a stallion to our members, including summaries of his health and radiographic examination results, to help breeders make the best choices for their mares. We believe transparency is very important.
4. Inspectors are governed by strict conflict of interest regulations published in WSI’s Rules. Inspectors may not inspect their own stallions; or stallions they have bred or previously owned; or stallions in whose sale or lease they have been involved in. And once an inspector has played a role in approving a stallion, he or she must stand back for five years from any commercial involvement with the stallion. (Sales and leases to IWNS are exempt.)
5. Horse welfare comes first with WSI. We expect stallions to be prepared for inspection in a sympathetic manner without training techniques designed to make the horse jump extravagantly or unnaturally. Stallions are subject to testing for prohibited substances. See WSI’s Rules for additional information.
�2
WSI’s values are the roots from which a world-class Irish stallion approval system will develop.

Transform Your Stud Farm
Approved stallions are the fuel that keeps the continental European sport horse industry in gear and powering ahead. With our partner, the KWPN, WSI supports progressive stallion owners and stallion stations to serve Irish mare owners. Together we can restore Ireland to the top tier of showjumping breeding, maintain Ireland’s lead in eventing breeding, and provide mounts for Team Ireland’s riders and other countries’ national teams.
Owning a stallion approved by WSI, and eligible to enter the optional KWPN 70 Day Stallion Test, will set you apart in our rapidly developing industry. Knowledgable Irish breeders demand Approved Stallions with world-class genetics and athleticism. WSI’s proven selection systems and procedures, combined with the immense resources and technical expertise of the KWPN, set the new modern standard.
In the next two or three years WSI will launch our own Stallion Performance Test here in Ireland, and our partnership with the KWPN means that stallions approved by WSI following the test also will be approved by the KWPN — without ever having to leave our shores. This will create huge opportunities for you to sell stallions, chilled and frozen semen, and stallion prospects to continental Europe and the rest of the world.
WSI’s new enhanced stallion approval system and performance test are just two of the many innovations we are rolling out. Sport Mare Inspections during Millstreet’s Welcome Tour, Irish Warmblood Breeders Groups, Interactive Training for breeding and riders, Elite Auctions and Online Sales, etc. will transform your program and our industry.
Warmbloods are not foreign to us. Join today and jump ahead with WSI.

From a small seed a mighty tree will grow.

Steps in the Approval Process
1. Complete a Stage 1 Stallion Inspection Application and send it to WSI along with a clean, clear copy of the stallion’s passport (registration page, marking chart, and extended pedigree). If your stallion is already Approved by a studbook that is a Full Member of the WBFSH he does not need to attend the Stage 1 inspection. In this case please contact WSI for a Stage 2 application.
2. Stage 1 inspections are held throughout the country in January, February, and March. The stallion will be seen in-hand and his loose movement and/or movement under saddle will be evaluated. You will be informed at the end of the Stage 1 inspection if your stallion has been selected for Stage 2. If you are not already a Member of WSI you need to join if your stallion is going to Stage 2.
3. Stallions invited to Stage 2 must have their DNA analysed to confirm their parentage (if not already done). They also must have a genomic profile created and have the DNA test done for genetic markers associated with osteochondrosis (DNA-OC test). There also is a clinical and radiographic examination at Troytown GreyAbbey Equine Hospital under the supervision of Michael Sadlier, Chairman of the WSI Veterinary Committee. Both examinations are focused on soundness for sport and breeding, and screening for moderately to highly heritable traits that WSI does not want to see consolidated in our population. Laboratory tests are also conducted for sexually-transmitted diseases. These tests and examinations may be done before or after Stage 2 / Stage 3 inspections - it is up to you.

For a plan to bear fruit it must be well thought-out…
3 March 2017
4. Stage 2 is for stallions that progress from Stage 1 and for stallions already approved by a WBFSH member studbook. Stage 2 inspections will be conducted at the Millstreet Green Glens Arena in April during the CSI* Welcome Tour, 13 - 15 April. Depending on the age of the stallion and level of training and fitness he will be assessed loose-moving, loose-jumping, and/or jumping under saddle with your own rider. Young stallions (minimum age is two) do not have to be ridden. You will be informed at the end of the Stage 2 inspection if your stallion has been selected for Stage 3.
5. Stage 3 is for stallions that progress from Stage 2, and will be held on the next day. The stallions will perform similar activities as during the previous stage except stallions under saddle will be ridden by WSI’s test rider. The test rider will report his evaluation of the stallions to the inspectors.
6. Stage 4 is the best part: Notification that your stallion has been approved by WSI and now enjoys all the benefits and privileges that come with approval by Ireland’s only modern and progressive studbook that is a Full Member of the World Breeding Federation for Sport Horses. All you need to do for this stage is…Celebrate! (If your stallion has not had the parentage and health tests, and health and radiographic exams, performed yet this needs to be done before approval can be granted.)
7. Stage 5 is voluntary and no expectation will be placed on you to accept this invitation: Now that your stallion is a WSI Approved Stallion, following an additional review of his x-rays by the KWPN, he will be invited to do the KWPN Stallion Performance Test in Ermelo without having to go through the selection process in the Netherlands. No other European studbook can offer you this opportunity.

Inspection Preparation
Make sure your stallion is current with his flu and tetanus vaccinations and worm treatments. If he is not up to date take care of these things now, well before the Stage 2 and Stage 3 inspections at Millstreet.
Have a skilled farrier trim your stallion’s hooves but no sooner than a week or ten days before he is inspected.
Do not over-train your stallion. Young stallions should be given experience cantering down the loose-jumping chute so they are relaxed and moving forward. But do not jump them too often or they will become tired, bored, or unhappy with the pressure. Mind his mind as much as you mind his body.
Young stallions approved by WSI on the basis of their loose-movement and loose-jumping athleticism are required to attend an evaluation day in the period of January - March of their 4-year-old year so WSI and KWPN inspectors can assess their development and rideability. Inspectors hope to see a relaxed young stallion showing his natural athleticism as he moves and jumps under saddle.
4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-year-old WSI Approved Stallions are required to compete in two Dublin Qualifiers each year so WSI and KWPN inspectors can monitor their development in sport. If your stallion becomes sick or injured WSI will work with you to select alternative good shows to exhibit your stallion.
Stallions with progeny will have a sample of them inspected by WSI and KWPN inspectors. We do this to better understand what qualities your stallion transmits to his foals and what types of mares best suit him. You may select some foals to be assessed and others will be chosen randomly. Try to secure cooperation from owners of these progeny. Additional charges may apply for progeny evaluations.

General Terms & Conditions Genomic Breeding Values
Definitions
1. WSI: Irish Warmblood Studbook Ltd trading as Warmblood Studbook of Ireland in Ogonnelloe at 14 Carrowgar, further to be referred to as WSI.
2. Client: the natural person or legal entity, or company, who/which is the owner or party registered with WSI, of/for a stallion and with whom/which WSI has concluded an agreement, further to be referred to as the client.
3. Assignment: the assignment provided by the client to WSI to execute a DNA test of a stallion.
4. Agreement: the agreement reached by the client and WSI.
5. DNA test: an investigation into the hereditary constitution of a stallion for a specific characteristic on the basis of DNA material.
6. Genomic breeding value (GBV): the genomic breeding value provides a prediction of the potential of the stallion for a specific characteristic on the basis of a DNA test and other information. The GBV is expressed in a number with regard to the average of a group of WSI and KWNP horses. Stallions can be ranked according to potential for a specific characteristic on the basis of the GBV.
7. Reference population: a group of animals that serves as a frame of reference.
8. Reliability: the extent of the accuracy of the GBV. The reliability can vary from 0 to 100 percent.
9. Kinship: kinship between the horse to be tested and the reference population, calculated on the basis of at least four and a maximum of all available generations.

WSI uses science to help you achieve success…
3 March 2017
Applicability
10. These general terms and conditions apply to the calculation of genomic breeding values on the basis of DNA tests.
11. These general terms and conditions apply to the agreement between the client and WSI.
12. Only Members in Good Standing of WSI can enter into an agreement with WSI concerning the calculation of genomic breeding values on the basis of DNA tests.
13. The rules and regulations of WSI apply to the members.
14. Assignments provided to WSI exclusively engender an obligation to use best endeavours and not an obligation of result, unless it is otherwise evident from the agreement.
15. WSI also includes directors and employees of WSI and all persons working for it and on its behalf, who execute (parts of) the calculations or a DNA test, as instructed by WSI. WSI is responsible for the employees or persons engaged by it during the execution.
16. WSI has the right, without prior warning, to implement adjustments in these general terms and conditions for new assignments.
17. WSI has the right not to accept an assignment.
Objective
18. The objective of a genomic breeding value on the basis of a DNA test is to acquire (at a young age) a prediction of the potential of the stallion for specific characteristics.
Stallions
19. Stallions must be sufficiently closely related to the reference population used in the analysis.
20. It is preferable if the parentage of the horses is verified, or can be verified based on the data available at KWPN; this is possible if one or both of the parents already have a verified genotype that is known by KWPN.
21. New verification of parentage is not a standard part of this assignment.
�11
in partnership with the KWPN, which spent a decade developing this test to help its members.
3 March 2017
22. If the client requires new verification of parentage an additional assignment must be provided for this purpose.
DNA sample
23. DNA samples will be collected in the form of hair (or blood) for the purpose of the calculation of the genomic breeding values on the basis of the DNA tests.
24. On request of the client, a DNA sample or genotype from the WSI or KWPN archive can be used, provided that this is held in stock. If this is not held in stock a hair sample will be taken by a WSI official or a veterinary surgeon. The client can personally provide a DNA sample to WSI, however this is exclusively with prior permission from WSI.
25. The DNA sample must meet the quality standards to be set out by KWPN.
Risk
26. WSI and KWPN endeavour to ensure that the completeness, accuracy and up-to-dateness of the data made available to the client are as great as possible. KWPN takes measures for this purpose with regard to the entering and processing of data and quality control of data and databases.
27. The client is aware of the fact that the genomic breeding value for a specific characteristic of the stallion can be estimated as lower than the client had previously thought or expected, and the client knows that the value of the stallion may decrease following this and the client accepts this risk.
28. The client knows that a prediction of the potential of an animal can in general contain estimation errors. Therefore, the reliability of the genomic breeding value is provided in addition to the genomic breeding value itself.
29. In the animal breeding sector, including horse breeding, reliabilities of (genomic) breeding values of 30% (useable) up to 80% (high) are normal and accepted.
30. It can occur in exceptional cases that no useable result can be acquired. In that case no result can be provided to the client. It will be decided in
�12
And now members of WSI and their Irish Warmbloods can share in the fruits of the KWPN’s investment.
3 March 2017
consultation with the client whether a new investigation will be conducted.
Ownership
31. The material that is collected and saved for the purpose of a DNA test will be the property of the KWPN, the owner of the DNA test.
32. The data that are acquired and collected in the context of the DNA test is the property of and will be managed by the KWPN to advance the development of WSI and KWPN.
33. The client will receive, for personal use, the genomic breeding value and the accompanying reliability for a specific characteristic of the individual stallion concerned.
34. The client provides permission to WSI and the KWPN to record the acquired data in the horse register and to use this data in accordance with the objective of WSI under its rules and regulations and the KWPN under its articles of association, including the use for breeding, journalistic, historical, statistical, informational, and scientific purposes.
35. The data that is recorded during the execution of the DNA test will remain linked to the individual stallion. This data will be managed and used by WSI and the KWPN for various breeding purposes, including breeding value estimate(s) and selection of stallions.
36. All intellectual property rights to all material, data and databases, or knowledge and methods under development, or developed, pursuant to this agreement or otherwise, are exclusively vested in the KWPN.
Quality assurance
37. The objective of the quality assurance is to establish whether the collected samples and data sufficiently meet the quality requirements so as to be recognised.
38. WSI and the KWPN have the option to inspect (have inspected) the parentage in the context of the quality assurance.
39. A new DNA sample must be collected if the collected DNA does not meet the quality requirements.
40. WSI and the KWPN engage expert laboratories.�13
The DNA-OC Breeding Value assigned to your stallion may add value to him…
3 March 2017
Publication
41. It ensues from the objectives of WSI and the KWPN that for the purpose of and related to the breeding, all stallion data with the accompanying personal and company data can be provided and published, unless determined otherwise.
42. The genomic breeding values of approved and acknowledged stallions will be published so that the breeders can use this information when choosing a partner. The client provides express permission for this purpose to WSI and the KWPN by means of the assignment.
43. The genomic breeding values of mares and non-approved/non-acknowledged stallions are digitally accessible for the owner/registered party in MyWSI and/or MyKWPN and will be exclusively published after receipt of permission in writing from the client.
44. Publication can take place through the internet and/or in printed form.
Complaints
45. WSI will fulfil its obligations with the required due care and expertise.
46. Complaints from the client regarding the manner in which WSI fulfils its obligations must be reported promptly after noticing, in writing, to WSI.
47. In the event of a complaint WSI will assess the complaint and if WSI finds the complaint justified WSI can either proceed with a new execution of the DNA test or with payment of compensation, except for when this liability is excluded: see liability.
48. The processing of a complaint does not suspend the payment obligation of the client.
49. WSI can request that an independent third party investigates the level of any damage.
50. If requested the client will make all information, that WSI or the third party to be appointed by WSI requires for the establishing of any damage, available to WSI or to the third party referred to, all this subject to forfeiture of the right to complain of the client.
51. Complaints regarding the mode of action of officials of WSI and KWPN fall under the appeals procedure

and add value to his progeny: higher prices as foals, sport prospects, broodmares, and breeding stallions.
3 March 2017
in the WSI and KWPN rules and regulations, respectively.
Exclusion and limitation of liability of WSI
52. WSI and KWPN can only be held liable for an attributable failure after WSI and KWPN have been given notice of default promptly, properly, and in a detailed manner concerning this. The latter includes inter alia a reasonable period in which to still be able to fulfil the obligation. KWPN cannot be held liable for an attributable failure of WSI, and vice versa.
53. WSI and KWPN will not be liable for damage caused by the result of the DNA test and breeding value estimate.
Payment
54. All prices are in Euro and exclude VAT unless stated otherwise.
55. WSI retains the right to change the prices and rates.
56. Payment must be made to WSI’s bank account via bank transfer or credit/debit card payment without any deduction or setoff. Credit/debit card payments incur an additional five percent (5%) surcharge (€8).
57. The costs must be paid in advance (unless agreed otherwise) within the payment term set out without any reduction or setoff.
58. Legislative changes to the VAT rate will be charged on to the client.
59. The costs of the verification of parentage will be charged additionally.
Disputes and applicable law
60. The legal relationships between WSI and the client are exclusively governed by Dutch law, reflecting the fact that KWPN owns the intellectual property underpinning the test.
Force majeure
61. WSI will not be bound to the fulfilment of any obligation if this is not reasonably possible for WSI resulting from changes arisen, through no fault of WSI, in the circumstances existing at the entering into of the agreement.
�15
Stallions with above average DNA-OC breeding values may command higher stud fees.
3 March 2017
62. A failure on the part of WSI will not be at its expense and risk if this is the result of an infectious illness or government interventions.
Other
63. The processing time depends on the delivery period of the DNA test and the capacity of the laboratory and the calculation time of the breeding values. The processing time can vary from a few weeks to several months.
�16
WSI Approved Stallions stand with KWPN Approved Stallions as a cut above the rest, both here and abroad.
