The experts Peter Weinberg (Jumping) and Ton de Ridder (Dressage)
as well as Martin Spoo (Rhineland Stud Book) will select horses
that demonstrate the necessary qualities to become top class
horses.
These young horses, aged up to eight, have to fulfill special
demands regarding their type, quality of movement, jumping
potential and state of health. Prior to the auction all of
the selected horses will be subject to numerous veterinary
inspections and will continue to be professionally trained.
Will general purpose horses be on offer
too?
What sort of price category will the auctioned horses fall
under?
The standards laid down for the collection are above average.
The selection includes first class bred young horses that

of the animals, the prices will range from between 25,000
Euros and 250,000 Euros.
