 | | Only stallions that pass these tests are registered in the stallion book 1 in their respective breed registers (for example Hanoverian stud book, Trakehner stud book, Holsteiner stud book etc.) To be eligible to take part in the SPT, the young stallions have to be licenced as 2 1/2 year-olds. |
 | | Each stallion will get a final result, which states his overall mark, his mark in the dressage part, his mark in the jumping part, and he will be ranked according to his total mark. |
 | | So for example, let's say there were 20 stallions performing thtest in Adelheidsdorf, and stallion x was best in his jumping, but performed badly in his rideability test, on the overall result he will be 1st in jumping, and 20th placerideability, and will finish up possibly 10th in his total mark. |
