Collection Foal Auction Prinsjesdag: World Championship medalists fully represented

For the elite auction on Tuesday 20 September, Foal Auction Prinsjesdag has once again put together a spectacular collection. Almost eighty foals in the dressage and jumping direction will be auctioned by auctioneer Koen Olaerts on the third Tuesday of September in Ermelo. The medalists of the past world championships in Herning are fully represented in both breeding directions.

Perhaps the most striking horse of the world championships in Herning was the impressive dressage stallion Glamourdale. Under the British Charlotte Fry, Glamourdale made the hearts of horse lovers beat faster and won two gold medals and a silver team medal in Herning. Lauw van Vliet and Cas van der Oord, dressage selection committee, registered two descendants of Glamourdale for the auction collection on Tuesday 20 September. The filly Suntresse Texel is a Glamourdale daughter from the famous Texel breeding farm and the colt Star On Firedale MCB is a Glamourdale son from the Jazz family.

Glamourdale & Hermes

Glamourdale is not the only top dressage champion from Herning with representatives in the dressage collection; the selection committee also added a descendant of Hermes to the collection. Under Dinja van Liere, Hermes was important in Herning for the Olympic qualification of the Dutch team and he won a well-deserved bronze medal in both the Grand Prix Special and the Freestyle. Special Diva Texel is a filly by Hermes and a striking foal in the collection of Foal Auction Prinsjesdag.

Another world champion who is amply represented is Kjento – last year the convincing world champion for six-year-old dressage horses in Verden. This Negro son seems to have a similar career in prospect as Glamourdale and has already sired three Prinsjesdag foals: Stromae T (ds. Charmeur), Sweet Murona (ds. Glock's Toto Jr) and Syracuse B (ds. .Grand Galaxy Win).

Daughter of Quel Homme de Hus

Fred van Straaten, Willem van Hoof and new committee member Bob Janssens put together a very high-quality show jumping collection. An exclusive foal, for example, is Quintodecimo SK Z. This filly from a performance dam line is a daughter of Quel Homme de Hus. Ridden by Jérôme Guery, the spectacular Quidam de Revel son Quel Homme de Hus won the silver medal in Herning, after not making a single jumping error in five rounds and thus only having to tolerate King Edward. Quel Homme de Hus does not have many offspring, which is why the filly Quintodecimo SK Z is a unique opportunity; especially since she is bred out of a daughter of Chacco Blue and a sister of Grand Prix winner Chablis.

Foals for sport and breeding

Other notable fillies include Shamrock VDS – a daughter of the Nations Cup star Grandorado TN out of the same dam as Defender Z, or Balou's Girl W – a daughter of Balou du Reventon out of a daughter of Electra van 't Roosakker. Also special is Sweet Sue Reuvekamps – the full sister of reigning Dutch champion Highway TN; or Wonder VD, an Emerald daughter from the Van 't Roosakker family. Also colts with potential for sport and breeding are part of the show jumping collection; think, for example, of Uricas van 't Gebergte Z from the direct line of Emerald, William Lawson de W&S – closely related to Mumbai and Opium JW van de Moerhoeve, or El Niño GZ – an Emerald son out of the sister of five-star winner Glamor Girl.
