Young new stallion Kalvin fan Stal Bellaﬂeur that was imported this year by Henson Friesian Stud showed his great temperament with a ﬂawless performance in front of a very big crowd. Tjalf 443 Sport (Owned by M Botes/Doorndraai Friesian Stud) was the absolute crowd favourite when he was shown in the long lines by Jean van Deventer and Dumisani Khabo.

The lunch me show was brought to an end by Freark fan e Sjongedyk (Owned by M Brits/Benmar) that wore a tradi onal Dutch costume. With his mane almost reaching the ground this stallion is also a well-known favourite. Friso fan S.

They followed the Bagpipe band and led out the twenty something compe tors that would ﬁght it out for the tle of Derby Champion.
