Designated son of Ferro sold
to the U.S. for 300.000 Dutch guiders:
FIRST EDITION OF KWPN SELECT
SALE HUGE SUCCESS
On Saturday afternoon 3
February the Brabanthallen in Den Bosch was packed to the rafters. For the
first time, for the closing of the yearly stallion approvals, the KWPN SELECT
SALE took place. Twenty one three-year-old stallions were auctioned, seven of
which were designated by the stallion approval committee for the
performancetest in Ermelo. The average price rose above 80.000 Dutch guilders;
only one stallion went back to its owner.
The best of the auction was
Rambo, the Ferro x Roemer x Homerus owned by Mr. Lamers and Mr. Van der Goor,
which had been elected to participate in the approval of champions a couple of
hours beforehand. For 300.000 guilders this promising dressage horse was sold
to Hilltop Farm in the U.S. The most expensive show jumper was Rajan J owned by
Gert Jan van Olst; this Animo x Burggraaf x Purioso exchanged owners for
220.000 Dutch Guilders. Rajan J is, just as Rambo, designated for the
performance examination and, therefore, has a chance to be approved as a stud.
The designated stallions Regilio (Heartbreaker x Burggraaf) and Rapperd
(Flemmingh x Roemer) each went for 130.000 guilders; Rendez Vous (Montecristo x
Marinier) went under the hammer for 110.000 guilders to the owner of
Montecristo himself, Stoeterij Broere.
There was also a lot of
interest for the other stallions. Eleven stallions were sold to Dutch buyers;
the rest went to foreign bidders. The Swiss dealer Gerhard Etter bought the
Animo x Lancer II and the Monaco x Aram. The Burggraaf x Nimmerdor and the Lux
x Rex Magna xx go to Ireland; the Kennedy x Glendale to England; the designated
Flemmingh x Roemer to the U.S. and the designated Heartbreaker x Burggraaf to
Belgium.
The non-bidding public too
enjoyed a wonderful afternoon in the Brabanthallen. To open the auction
proceedings, Zegwaards Pacino was sold. This one and a half year-old piebald
Falabella went for 15.000 guilders. Moreover the top stallions Olympic Ferro,
Animo, Jazz, Burggraaf, Heartbreaker, Kennedy and Montecristo were present to
give a show and to lead their sons into the arena.
