Pjethro is a young stallion with a pedigree that points to great talent for the FEI levels! His sire,
Kjento, has been in the spotlight from a young age with numerous accolades along the way,
including KWPN Stallion Test Champion, Reserve Champion PAVO Cup finish, and World Young
Horse Champion as both a 6-year-old and 7-year-old. Now showing well at Prix St. Georges/
Intermediare and training all the Grand Prix work with ease, Kjento continues to show great
talent for the future. Pjethro’s dam is by the popular sire, Desperado, who has been a successful
competition horse from the FEI Young Horse classes through Grand Prix, with numerous FEI
competitors and licensed sons to his credit including the popular Ibiza. The influence of Pjethro’s
damline foreshadows great talent for sport. Pjethro’s granddam by Houston has produced
multiple FEI level horses, two international Grand Prix horses, and the licensed stallion, Valeron.
Pjethro completed his KWPN Stallion Test in 2023, earning no score less than 8.5. Particular
highlights for Pjethro included scores of 9.0 for trot, posture and balance, and rideability. In 2025,
Pjethro finished as Reserve Champion of the KWPN Stallion Competition L-Level and was Reserve
Champion of the PAVO Cup Finals for 5-Year-Olds later in the year. Pjethro’s early foals show his
expressive type and gaits and have been well received at inspections and keurings. With the Van
Olst team behind Pjethro, we look forward to his development in both breeding and sport.
