The Westphalian Studbook has had a good year, with as many as twenty newly approved stallions. Comme Il Faut - that competes under Marcus Ehning - was well represented with three offspring that all were approved. Other sires include Check In - previously competed by Gilbert Böckmann and now seen under Samantha McIntosh, Cordess - competing with Philipp Weishaupt, Firth of Lorne - previously seen under Katrin Eckermann and now ridden by Franz-Josef Dahlmann, as well as the legendary Darco to mention some.
