Prinsjesdag top talent Hannelinde in Excellent Dressage Sales

The 2016 VSN champion Hannelinde (Dream Boy x Sunny-Boy) will be auctioned on April 16 at the prestigious Excellent Dressage Sales. Four years ago, in 2012, Hannelinde was already a very striking foal at Foal Auction Prinsjesdag. Imperial de Baian (Everdale x Jazz), also auctioned at Foal Auction Prinsjesdag, is in the collection of the Van Olst Sales – an auction that will take place next March 25.

The 4-year-old mare Hannelinde brilliantly won the VSN final. With a 9.5 for trot and 9's for canter, rideability and general impression, Hannelinde made a huge impression. The selection committee of the Excellent Dressage Sales – Joop van Uytert, Nico Witte, Tim Coomans and Joep Schellekens – were also impressed and added Hannelinde to their collection.

Watch Hannelinde's auction video below:

The Everdale son Imperial de Baian won't be three years old until mid-July, but is already showing fantastic quality under saddle. His dam D'Avance de Baian is none other than the full sister of Adelinde Cornelissen's famous Jerich Parzival. The gelding Imperial de Baian was recently declared ster by the KWPN with 80 points for both conformation and movement.
