Price list of the 60th Elite-Auction
Münster: The 60th Westphalian Elite Auction was a great success on Sunday afternoon. This auction of the Westfälisches Pferdestammbuch e.V. was also held exclusively online. A fabolous top price of 182.000 Euros was received by the Bonds/Ehrenpreis daughter Be my lady. Eight horses were sold for a knock down price of 50.000 Euros and more. Out of 39 horses sold, 20 will be trained abroad in the future.
The highest price of the 60th Westphalian Elite Auction was achieved by the head number 2 Be my Lady. The exciting bid up lasted over 15 minutes. Customers from the Netherlands and Germany let the price for the Bonds/Ehrenpreis daughter, bred by the ZG Ulmker, rise up. In the end, customers from Germany had the longest breath. They found the strong moving bay worth 182,000 euros. This year, the state premium mare already participated at the Westphalian Elite Mare Show and was nominated for the Bundeschampionat. Numerous auction horses, licensed stallions and successful sport horses originate from this dam line. The second horse to break the magic 100,000 Euro mark was head number 4. The Bid up for the Benicio/Laudabilis son Blinding Light (breeder: Maria Leusmann) was also very exciting. A new customer from the Netherlands won the bidding duel. At 106,000 Euros the virtual hammer fell for the chestnut, whose full sister was one of the price peaks at the Westphalian Elite Auction a year ago. The licensed pony stallion Gigabyte found new owners for 44,000 Euros. The four-year-old Hesselteichs Golden Dream/Chantre B-son (breeder: Reiner Bockholt) was victorious in riding pony tests and took part in the Bundeschampionat 2020.
The seven show jumpers on offer were also highly valued by international customers. The Zinedine/New Quidam son, Zalando (breeder: Norbert Frings), aroused the highest desires. The still youthful four-year-old impressed in training throughout with ability and caution. A promising future awaits the bay. He was worth 57,000 Euros to the buying syndicate of Holger Hetzel and Ludger Beerbaum.
The price structure of this 60th Westphalian Elite Auction was highly gratifying. Of 46 horses offered, 39 found a new owner. Eight horses achieved a price of 50,000 Euros and more, two of them cost more than 100,000 Euros. On average 34,538 Euros had to be invested in the young horses. Once again, the clientele of the Westfälisches Pferdestammbuch e.V. was international. Half of the horses sold will eat their oats abroad in the future. "Certainly we would have wished for a more personal setting for the 60th Westphalian Elite Auction. Nevertheless, we are very satisfied with the course of this auction and are pleased that we were able to sell so many riding horses for our breeders at a top price", auction and marketing manager Thomas Münch sums up.
