Jet Set D was North Holland Champion foal and he soon developed into a really top-class stallion. He completed his performance test in Ermelo as the best all-rounder in many years and was particularly appreciated for his temperament and athletic action. He was one of the most striking stallions to appear in the dressage ring during the testing. He was given 7 scores of 9 in movement and two scores of 7.5 in jumping. This was what was said in the evaluation at the test: ‘Jet Set D is a royally developed, true riding-type, long-lined stallion that shows a lot of nobility and confidence. He has an honest, reliable and steady temperament and is a very willing worker. The walk is active and roomy. He has a plentiful and powerful trot in which he displays a lot of presence. His canter shows good scope and elevation.’ Jet Set D is eager to learn and has remarkably skilful action in front. He gives the rider a great feeling and is a highly talented dressage horse. He is a pleasant ride over fences, with a powerful jump, skilful technique and good use of the back. Jet Set D clearly has a lot of potential. He shows ample talent to great talent as a show jumping horse.
