It is the biggest outdoor equestrian event in Sweden, steeped in tradition and also the venue for sport at five-star-level: The Falsterbo Horse Show excels in character, charisma and class, same as the 13 Holsteiner foals to be auctioned there on 13 July.
All information, photos, and videos of these young prospects can now be found online on www.holsteiner.auction and they are publicly presented for the first time in the big jumping stadium on 13 July at around 2:00pm. The hybrid auction starts directly after the prestigious Falsterbo Derby, at around 5:00pm. Once bank, wall, and birch oxer have been negotiated, a hand-picked selection of high-end young Holsteiners will step onto the grass in front of a massive crowd. The foals bred by dedicated breeders from Germany, Denmark, Poland and Sweden shine with remarkable relatives’ performance. Like for example lot 2, Sweet Diamond ML by Dourkhan Hero-Diarado, whose 2nd dam is a full sister to Olympic hero, Cardento by Capitol I (Peter Eriksson/SWE). Or lot 3, Quality Star by Quaprice Bois Morgot-Cornet Obolensky – his second dam is none other than Goriana van Klapscheut by Vigo d’Arsouilles (Pilar Lucracia Cordon/ESP). The successful offspring of this mare family alone could fill books. Essential for this Holsteiner foal auction are foals by stallions such as Casall and Zuccero HV, who have contributed to some of the greatest successes in the career of Sweden’s Rolf-Göran Bengtsson. The stable of “Roffe“ is also home to the world champion of the young jumping horses, Caillan by Casall, who in turn is closely related to lot 1, Smilla by Million Dollar-Casall. The Holsteiner Verband marketing team has put together a collection of very interesting foals with internationally sought-after bloodlines to be put to auction against the backdrop of the nations cup horse show. “At Falsterbo Horse Show, top sport, an expert audience and excellent vibes come together. This is the place for the Swedes to celebrate equestrian sport and horse breeding”, says auction manager Felix Flinzer, happy about this opportunity for Holsteiner breeders to organize an auction here. The hybrid format allows for uncomplicated online bidding as well as bidding by telephone.
