Stud Book

Stud Book mares are out of dams which are registered in either the Main Stud Book or Stud Book. The sire as well as the sire of the dam and the sire of the grandam on the dam's side either have to be registered in the Stallion Book of the Hanoverian Society or come from breeding populations as described above.

Mares in this section must achieve an overall mark of at least 5 points with no section lower than 4 points.

Mares with dams registered in either the Pre Stud Book or Vorbuch must be classified into this Stud Book section.
