16th Westphalian Summer Auction with excellent result

Price list: 16. Westfälische Sommer-Auktion

Münster: At the 16th Westphalian Summer Auction of the Westfälisches Pferdestammbuch e.V. everything went to our complete satisfaction. With a knock down price of 47,000 Euros a jumping horse jumped to the top price. As the most expensive dressage horse, Friedensfürstin left the virtual auction parquet for 37,500 Euros. An average of 18,932 Euros was invested in the young horses. In the future, 17 horses will have their homes abroad.

Punctually at 2 pm the bid-up for the riding horse collection of the 16th Westphalian Summer Auction Handorf-Extra started. 44 auction candidates were up for sale. Shortly before 2 pm the bids climbed steadily upwards. At 3.45 pm the bidding for the later price peak started. The head number 37 Darah by Dibadu L/Cornet Obolensky (bred by Dammann/Graf, Ascheberg; exhibited by Kai Ligges, Herbern) won the qualification for the Bundeschampionat last year at the Westfalenwoche in Münster-Handorf. With her natural caution and impressive jumping ability, the black mare convinced right from the start. The contract was awarded to a Chinese sport stable based in Germany for 47,000 Euros. This stable also bought the second most expensive jumping horse. For 32,000 Euros they bought the Diarado/Balou du Rouet daughter, Dirty Diana FS (breeder: Fabian Scholz, Warendorf; exhibitor: Sportpferde Scholz, Warendorf). The most sought-after dressage horse was sold with head number 15. The Fürstenball/Sir Donnerhall daughter Friedensfürstin (breeder: Günter Buschmann, Stemwede) made it exciting. Again and again the bid increased by another 500 Euros. The impressive, strong moving mare impressed with her appearance in daily training. The virtual hammer for the bay fell at 37,500 Euros. She will move into her new stable in Baden-Württemberg. The two riding ponies in the collection also enjoyed great popularity with customers. Cascada by FS Champion de Luxe/Dornik B (breeder: Theodor Stemmann, Gelsenkirchen; exhibitor: KS Horses GmbH, Heiden) was sold to Bavaria for 13,500 Euros.

An average of 18,932 Euros was invested in the 39 auction candidates. Once again, the high level of interest from foreign customers was particularly pleasing. Nearly 40 percent of the horses sold will leave Germany. Customers from Sweden in particular had a good hand, winning the bid four times. Two horses will start their journey to Belgium. Five horses did not achieve the exhibitors' desired price in the online auction. "Once again, we are delighted with the great response from our customers! Throughout the entire preparation period, the test riding went off without complications under the strict hygienic conditions and appointment arrangements. This is mainly due to the good work of our stable and marketing team. We are also particularly pleased about the great interest in our ten show jumpers, which sold for an average of 19,833 Euros," auction and marketing manager Thomas Münch was delighted with the results of this summer auction.

The next online auction of the Westfälisches Pferdestammbuch e.V. will already start tomorrow. 28 foals with highly interesting pedigrees are for sale in this lot. Interested parties can still place bids until tomorrow evening. The bid-up of the foals will start on Monday evening at 7.30 pm.
