Excellent collection Prinsjesdag online
They will be auctioned on Tuesday 21 September, 78 top foals that the selectors have carefully selected for you. Foal Auction Prinsjesdag sets the standard very high and the selected foals can therefore be seen as the cream of the crop. Just like last year, Prinsjesdag is lucky enough to receive visitors, so you can bid live and online.
Selector Fred van Straaten (together with Willem van Hoof responsible for the jumping foals): “We were able to select a fantastic collection of foals. As a buyer you are looking for security in a foal, you will find that in the genetics and the conformation and movements of the foal itself. Once again we managed to find foals that provide that certainty. By means of ICSI and embryo transplantation, genetically more beautiful material is becoming available, but buying an unborn foal naturally entails risk. With these foals we have the genetics and we can actually see that they are well put together. We are very happy that we have built such a relationship with top breeders that we can select such foals that have a story behind them. As an auction, I think we distinguish ourselves by the references we have built up over the years. We have sold a large number of top horses as foals and that says something!”
Dressage foals
Dressage selector Cas van der Oord and his colleague Lauw van Vliet were also looking for foals with a story. “For Prinsjesdag you want to select foals from special mare strains and we succeeded! Of course there are very interesting colts among them with a view to the stallion inspection. However, someone who is looking for something special to set up a breeding with has a number of very special fillies to choose from.” One of those fillies is Rosatrichta van de Westen, the national foal champion and daughter of Le Formidable. Revolution daughter Rumor Zenzi comes from the mother of the approved stallion Next Romancier and a stock full of sport. Roluciënne van Bordeaux comes from another top line, that of Davino and Ub 40. The beautiful Reya is a daughter of the brand new world champion Kjento out of the direct dam line of Painted Black and Premier.
Only outliers
“A good example is Rosy Murona, from one of the best Dutch dressage lineages, who is paired here with Feinrich. This half-brother of For Romance gave the champion of the Eilite selection in Rastede this year and the unusual mare Nizelle, who finished high at the NMK. With regard to the colts, it is fantastic that we can auction the full brother of Nouvelle Feniz Texel. The Franklin from the mother of Charlotte Fry's Dark Legend is very interesting as are the sons of Vivino and Mc Laren. This collection only has outliers!” said Van der Oord. Of course there is the possibility to contact one of the selectors if you would like more information about the foals. They can be reached via +31(0)35-2053035.
