Fantastico becomes the fantastic price peak

“Every week on monday…“ in Westphalia

Münster: 33 foals were for sale in the Westphalian online auction on Monday evening. 23 of them changed owners at an average price of 10,696 Euros. The top price was achieved by a quality stallion prospect by Franz Joseph Junior.

Once again, it was a young stallion that sired the top priced foal at the Westphalian Online Auction. A colt from the second vintage of the premium stallion Franz Joseph Junior convinced the international audience in front of the screens with the head number one. Fantastico (breeder and exhibitor: Hubertus Hummelt, Telgte) is a promising stallion prospect with chic and charm. Long-legged and equipped with a lot of elasticity and impulsion, he was already high favour before the BidUp. Until the start of this online auction, customers from Canada held the bid before the winning bid changed hands between the Netherlands and the Ukraine. At the top price of 36,500 Euros, the bay stallion, bred out of a dam by Fürst Piccolo, will move into his box at a stable in the Netherlands.

The most expensive foal of the jumping lot followed the top price. Tarzan (breeder and exhibitor: Frank Timmreck, Hohenberg-Krusemark) attracted the attention of the online world with his head number two. The son of Tangelo van de Zuuthoeve/Cascari is a colt out of a highly interesting and successful dam line. His granddam was successful up to advanced level. DSP Cashmoaker (Denise Nielsen) and Django Unchained T (Simone Blum), who were successful in show jumping competitions up to 1.60 m, also descend from this dam line.  Tarzan will move into his new home in the Rhineland for the knock-down price of 22,000 Euros.

Among the fillies offered, a striking daughter of the Grand Prix winning Franziskus stood out especially. Famosa (breeder and exhibitor: Günter Schumacher, Gebhardshain) with the head number 19 showed a lot of tact and impulsion. Her granddam gave birth to several successful sport horses. The dark bay filly was bred out of a dam by Desperados. With these two internationally highly successful stallions she is looking towards a promising future. For 23,000 Euros she changed into the possession of a private Danish dressage stable.

The 23 foals sold made a turnover of 246,00 Euros. On average, international customers invested 10,696 Euros. Three foals cracked the 20,000 Euro mark. Eight of the foals sold will move abroad. Many foreign customers held the pre-bids. "Today, unfortunately, we could not reach the desired target of the foals sold. Nevertheless, the average price of the foals sold of 10,696 Euros makes us feel positive. We consider it appropriate to continue to offer many breeders the opportunity to market their foals at our auctions," summarised Auction and Marketing Manager Thomas Münch.

The next online foal auction of the Westfälisches Pferdeatmmbuch is already in the starting blocks. With the "Westphalia on Tour 2.0" auction, breeders with a greater distance to Münster-Handorf were given the opportunity to have their foals marketed with videos they created themselves. The lot can already be viewed at onlineauction.westfalenpferde.de. Bids will be accepted from 1 to 5 July.
