Freeman VDL (Emmerton x Chin Chin x Ahorn x Silvano) became Champion of the KWPN Stallionapprovals. The jury described Freeman VDL as the most complete stallion.
The stallion descends from the famous mareline of Helena, she is mother of the international Grand Prix jumper Southwind VDL. Also the approved stallions Bugatti VDL and Glennridge descends from this motherline.
