With presentations made by BEF to the breeders of WEG medal winning horses Cool Mountain, WH Bentley, Academy Award, Teddy and Purdy’s Dream alongside the breeders of the up and coming British bred sport horses recognised by their respective disciplines British Showjumping, British Eventing and British Dressage. The next generation in the form of the Baileys Horse Feeds/BEF Futurity winners for 2010 (including top sire Grafenstolz and top dam Katinka) were presented with awards or certificates of merit and looking to the future, Horse and Hound’s Outstanding Mare Award was made to UK Hanoverians’ St Pr Welunjia on the basis of her progeny performance record. Caesar 171, the recipient of the Sports Pony Studbook Society’s performance and breeding award recognises that Britain is a frontrunner in the production of performance ponies for young riders. The South Essex Insurance Brokers and Retraining of Racehorses Elite Performance Awards celebrate the many retrained racehorses who go on to have successful high level careers following the racetrack – demonstrated  by high achieving eventing performers Danaan Prince and Alligator Alley. The pinnacle of the evening, the Equestrian Edge Meritoire for an outstanding contribution to British breeding went to Henk Minderman, the man behind Renkum Stud and the Anglo European Studbook who has brought a British studbook into the World Breeding Federation for Sport Horses top 10 rankings twice during 2010.
