The gold of the future in the equestrian sport can be found on the Danish Warmblood Elite Foal Auction.

Danish Warmblood proudly presents a high-quality and very classy collection of 70 carefully selected foals offered for sale at the Danish Warmblood Elite Foal Auction at Vilhelmsborg on Saturday 26 August

The exquisite collection of 70 elite auction foals consists of 25 show jumping foals and 45 dressage foals. Each foal is handpicked at the Danish Warmblood foal shows, taking into consideration the conformation and gaits of the foal as well as the performance value of its pedigree.

A stellar collection

The wide collection of high-quality foals represents the best in Danish sport horse breeding. Many of the foals are regional foal show champions, and most of them are out of performance-strong dam lines which have produced several top horses in sport and breeding.

When it comes to sires of the dressage foals you will find names like champion stallion and multiple 10-awarded Revolution, the newly minted bronze medalist from the world championships in Ermelo, Hesselhøj Donkey Boy, the triple world champion Sezuan, top foal producer Franklin, dressage horses producer Fürstenball and many more.

Among the show jumping foals, the fatherhood can be credited prominent stallions like the famous Cornet Obolensky, the Olympic 2016 finalist Emerald van Ruytershof, the top show jumper producer Quasimodo vd Molendreef and internationally successful jumpers like Clarimo, Eldorado van de Zeshoek, Untouchable and many more.
