Sport Tested Hanoverian Auction Horses
The 125th Elite Auction of Hanoverian riding horses and foals will be held in the Niedersachsenhalle in Verden on October 14 and 15.
The collection features 92 riding horses and 48 foals. It will be the first time that the horses will be stabled in the new facilities at the Lindhooper Straße.
During the selection trip from June to August, the selection committee has arranged for a selection of outstanding riding horses and foals according to the typical high Verden standard. Five horses from the dressage collection suc-cessfully competed at the Bundeschampionate in Warendorf.
Heartbeat by Hotline/Wolkentanz opens the auction collection. He won the bronze medal in the category of four-year-old mares and geldings with Jan-Dirk Gießelmann. State premium candidate Lady Dance by Londontime/Wolkentanz, the Vice Champion of the Herwart v. d. Decken-Show in Verden and finishing third at the Bundeschampionate in the division of three-year-old mares and geldings, will follow with auction-no. 2.
Representatives of approved sires such as Graf Top, Balou du Rouet, Stolzenberg, Stakkato, Argentinus, Calido or Valentino will enrich the show jumping collection. The one or other futurity prospect already presented its qualities at the Hanoverian Show Jumping Championships in Verden.
The Verden auction collection is complemented by 48 foals born as of June 1. They have both, approved and modern pedigrees, including for example De Niro, Desperados, Belissimo M, Soliman de Hus and Totilas or Perigeux, Rascali-no, Edward and Quaid.
