Knabstrupper Society GB is now able to provide DNA testing within the UK through the Animal Health Trust in Newmarket.
We wish to make it perfectly clear that the only two KNN gradings in England this year are at Centyfield Stud in Devon and at Bishop Burton College in Yorkshire on the 26th and 28th September respectively as previously announced. The KNN have explicitly stated that all KNN grading activities in the UK are to be organised by its recognised UK daughter organisation, the KSGB. As in previous years, the 2008 venues were chosen based on the locations indicated to us of likely participants. Having shown no previous interest in the KNN gradings, the UKA have since been adamant an additional grading venue was required this year based on existing numbers of horses from their own members. Over a month ago the UKA were invited to provide us with information numerically and geographically justifying an additional grading venue. No such information has been provided by the UKA, therefore no additional grading venue can now be accommodated this year.
Please be aware, the UKA have never had any indication from the KNN or the KSGB of any additional grading on the 27th September or any other date. The UKA have repeatedly been asked to remove information regarding any additional venue from their web site to prevent further confusion. Not only has this request been ignored, they now have the audacity to blame the cancellation of a supposed grading on the 27th September on the KNN being “unable to offer the Central Grading on the 27th September as proposed”. We now find ourselves with no option but to put out a public warning regarding this matter. If you would like to bring your horse forward for grading with the KNN, and have found yourself caught in the misleading information provided by the UKA, please contact us as soon as possible! All KNN and KSGB members are eligible to put their horses forward for the KNN gradings. We will do our utmost to accommodate any late entries, including stallions, caused by the misinformation of the UKA. Information on this year’s UK gradings and entry forms can be found on the grading link at the left of this page.
