Head of the DWB auction committee Ulrik Kristensen is thrilled with the outcome of the Elite Foal Auction: – Danish sport horses have achieved great popularity abroad which is the reason for the massive international attention the auction foals have received. We have had online bidders from many countries, and 21% of the sold foals were purchased by internet buyers. We experienced a great flow between the arena and the internet, and the concept of hybrid auctions is an indisputable success.

The three most sought-after auction foals were dressage fillies. Helgstrand Dressage placed the finale bid of 72,000 EUR on Slangerups Josefine by Jovian/Scolari whose dam is also the dam of the licensed stallion Flottenheimer.

The filly Fallopia by Blue Hors Zack/Bretton Woods carries Olympic bloodlines not only through her sire but also through her dam line which she shares with Don Schufro. This filly, bred by Blue Hors, was purchases for 64,000 EUR by the owners of the mare Heiline’s Danciera who placed 7th in the Olympic Freestyle.

Midnights Florentina by Knock-Out/Fürstenball is a filly that exudes Grand Prix quality, and she received many bids from abroad and was eventually purchases for a knock-down price of 47,000 EUR going to an internet bidder.

Dressage foals by Blue Hors Monte Carlo TC, Secret, Vitalis and Jameson all sold for over 30,000 EUR to buyers in Denmark as well as abroad.

The price highlight among the jumping foals, the colt Checkmate AS by Chacfly PS/ Bøgegårdens Lansini sold for 18,500 EUR to Frandsbjerg Horses who bought nothing less than seven foals at this auction. Second most foal, CC Dolly by Dallas VDL/ Contendro I is out of one of the strongest show jumping breeders in Denmark, Carsten Carstensen and she sold to Teglovnen for 17,000 EUR.
