Price list foal online auction dressage IV

Münster: The online auction of the Westfälisches Pferdestammbuch e.V. ended this evening with a top result. After a short summer break, 30 dressage foals changed owners via the proven online platform. With a kncok-down price of 38,000 Euros Friends for Life advanced to the top price. With a very good average price of 9,908 Euros, the overall result is more than satisfactory.

True to the motto "Every week on monday..." the online Bid Up started as usual at 7.30 pm. However, the later price peak did not go into the exciting Bid Up until 8.45 pm. It took a long time until the virtual hammer fell for the beautiful For Romance/Diamond Hit son. At a kncok-down price of 38,000 Euros, the Polish entrepreneur couple Hanna and Tomasz Modrzejewski secured this wonderful youngster for the dressage arena bred by Gertrud Höckesfeld and exhibited by Erik Höckesfeld. Also the most expensive filly, Ebenholz B, will be travelling to Poland. The daughter of the shooting star Escamillo was bred and exhibited by the ZG Bosserhoff Gisela Betz-Newrzella, Hünxe, out of a dam by St. Schufro. After an exciting bidding duel, the hammer fell at 22,000 Euros. The First Selection/Don Nobless son, Fürst Albert (breeder and exhibitor: Josef Decking, Emsdetten) will also spend his future in Poland together with the two price peaks. The couple invested 9,250 Euros in this colt.

A total of 35 highly talented foals with dressage pedigrees were for sale this evening. At an average price of 9,908 Euros, 30 of these changed hands. One third achieved a price of over 10,000 Euros. The average price achieved is the highest average ever achieved at a Westphalian Foal Online Auction for dressage foals. Ten foals will travel abroad. Besides Poland, the USA also secured three of the foals. Five foals will move to a well-known breeders stable in Wettringen. "After first skepticism about a possible saturation of the foal market after this summer, we are very satisfied with the result of the online auction! Our foal online auctions in September are the prelude to a hopefully golden autumn," says auction and marketing manager Thomas Münch with satisfaction and optimism.

Starting tomorrow, September 8, the next collection of show jumping foals will be available for inspection at onlineauction.westfalenpferde.de with complete information on pedigree and dam line as well as photos and videos. A protocol for the veterinary examination will also be available for download for all registered users. Bidding is possible from Thursday, September 10. As usual, the bid up will start on Monday, September 14, at 7.30 pm.
