Danish Warmblood press release
An auction lot of 31 horses will come under the hammer at the Danish Warmblood Spring Auction taking place on Saturday 11 March 2017, and the auction will be streamed on Clip My Horse
The Danish Warmblood Stallion Licensing in Herning is the biggest event of its kind and is expected to receive more than 60,000 visitors again this year. The event – also called Herning Horse Show – is an absolute feast for all horse lovers, and in addition to the traditional stallion licensing it offers a wide variety of entertainment like CDI3*, CSI3*, Young Horse Championships, Gala shows, clinics and an immense exhibition area.
Auction collection with highlights
On Saturday afternoon, 11 March, the Spring Auction 2017 will take place under the guidance of auctioneer Casper Cassøe with 31 horses going under the hammer. Many successful Danish Warmblood horses have been purchased as promising youngsters at this auction like the elite stallion Skovens Rafael, the Grand Prix dressage mare Donna Silver and many more.
This year’s auction lot consists of a high-quality collection of 31 horses of which 12 are 3-year-old stallion prospects, 12 dressage and 12 show jumping stallions, and the remaining 19 are riding horses aged 4-8. Several of the 5-year-olds are among the favourites in the Young Horse Championships also taking place in Herning.
Each auction horse has been selected on its sport horse qualities and also with emphasis on its pedigree. Hence, many of the horses are out of outstanding dam lines, like a highly graded mare out of the the same mare family as the double world champion for young dressage horses, Fiontini, just as well as there is a daughter of the triple world champion, Sezuan. There are also three 4-year-old full siblings (embryo transfers) very closely related to the gold medal stallion Hesselhøj Donkey Boy, and a couple of young show jumping stallions out of the most exquisite bloodlines.
