The first “HORSE24 Champions” online auction ended with a good result. The seven dressage foals, one jumping foal and one riding pony foal, all of which were ranked in the top ten at the HORSE24 German Foal Championships, cost an average of 19,333 Euros, and six of them had been decorated with gold, silver or bronze medals.

Invincible was sold to the well-known dressage horse marketer and stallion owner Andreas Helgstrand in Denmark for the top price of 30,000 euros. The chestnut son of Iron (bred by Jan Wilms), who is half-brother to the up-coming star Sir Floresco by Patrik Kittel/SWE, was already the talk of the town in Lienen and clearly decided the colt ranking in his favour.
The Fynch Hatton son Fiero, bred by Kathrin Bücker, cost 27,500 euros. The silver winner of the HORSE24 German Foal Championships stays in Germany.
The Canadian businesswoman, dressage enthusiast and sponsor of international top riders, Vicky Lavoie, won the bidding on one of the newborn lot. Vitalo G, bred by Gina Adenauer out of her Quaterhall mare in a mating to the Vice Dressage Horse World Champion and Bundeschampion Vitalos, cost 27,000 euros.
The multiple Youth and U25 European Champion Sanneke Schubert-Rothenberger put down 12,000 Euros for the winner of the riding pony colt Glücksgefühl MS, out of the first crop of the winning stallion Gold Garant. The Perlino, bred by Melanie Schütz, is intended for her daughter Amalia, who was only born in January this year, to ride in the future. “Our jockey still has to grow into her riding boots for a few more years,” Sanneke posted on Instagram, smiley and happy about her purchase.
