Dressage foals

“We were able to select seven dressage foals with very varied bloodlines for this July auction,” says Jacques Verkerk, who is responsible for the dressage selection together with Lauw van Vliet. “They are all foals with a great future ahead of them. Such as the Blue Hors Zackerey daughter Pursuit of Happiness, who moves with just as strong hind leg use as her sire and has won the online Blue Hors Foal Championship. The powerfully moving Le Formidable daughter Pendilia SIH is also a very spectacular moving filly. The filly Piacenza G is perhaps the most beautiful foal of Jameson RS2 of the entire season and she moves with a very good technique. A very athletic foal is the light-footed, uphill moving Fürstenball daughter Pyria SC.

The fifth filly from this collection is Petronella van de Moerhoek, a well-developed daughter of Lennox US who moves with a lot of front and power.” The colts Patser Buitenrust (by Glock's Toto Jr.) and Panamera (by Imposantos) complete the collection. “The Toto Jr. son is a very complete colt with a really good way of moving, a lot of power and he comes from a good sport line. Panamera is bred out of the full sister of High Five US and has three good basic gaits and moves with great ease.”

Jumping foals

Fred van Straaten is also delighted with the show jumping collection. “Of course the pedigree is important for the jumping foals, but the foal itself must also meet the highest standards and be athletic. For example, we are very happy to have a striking colt from the first crop of the top performing stallion All Star 5, with a good canter and dam line. Prime Minister is also a special foal, a son of Camargo out of a strong line. Udarcaheart-M offers the opportunity to purchase one of the last, modern Darco daughters. The Diamant de Semilly daughter Pearle W has a grandmother and great-granddam who both already produced Grand Prix horses and is therefore also interesting for sport and breeding”, Van Straaten sums up.

“That certainly also applies to Perla AASJ, a daughter of Diarado with the famous mare Fragance de Chalus in the third generation. A striking colt is DC Balou, descended from the successful Diaron, who also has a lot of sport at the front of the line. Then we have F-Marit VHS Z, a daughter of Falaise de Muze out of the full sister of the Grand Prix stallion Zèlote VDL. The colt Joker Z descends from the progenitor Jenson van 't Meulenhof in the making and goes back in the third generation to the Grand Prix mare Sea Coast Ferly. The blood-bred, good canter Leandro VG son Ulandro Touch JT is also a very special foal and with an extremely proven pedigree, the sporty Verdi son Picolot W also has a great future.”
