Foal Auction Prinsjesdag publishes veterinary reports

For the first time, potential buyers already have insight into the veterinary reports of the foals that will be auctioned during the Foal Auction Prinsjesdag on 13 and 14 September. The findings of the clinical examination by recognized veterinary surgeons can be found on the website www.prinsjesdag.eu. This makes Foal Auction Prinsjesdag the first auction in the Netherlands that goes one step further in openness.
“We do this to provide the best possible transparent picture of the auction foals. For each foal that we have selected, we believe that the accompanying report is good enough for him or her to be auctioned, taking into account that they are very young foals where a lot can still change in terms of development," says Arjan van der Waaij, chairman of the foal auction in Ermelo.

The jumping foals will be auctioned on Tuesday 13 September, the dressage foals on Wednesday 14 September. A new embryo has also been added to www.embryoauctions.com, a branch of Foal Auction Prinsjesdag. It is an embryo of For Romance (Fürst Romancier x Sir Donnerhall I) out of the half-sister of Desperados FRH, winner of individual bronze and team gold at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. The online auction closes on August 28 at 8 p.m.
