In March of 2007, Vallado successfully completed his 30-day stallion test with the following scores -

In 2006, Vallado was graded Premium by the KWPN.  The following comments were made by the jury, "The stallion Vallado (Now or Never M x Ecaranda ster by Saros xx, bred by F. Morssink) owned by Summer Stoffel received the first first premium of the day. The four-year old colt has a very good body type, with a super shoulder, good topline and lots of presence.
