2000 Spring Elite Auction - Results
The
52nd Spring Elite Auction for Oldenburg sport horses
could count on enthusiastic equestrian sport fanatics
willing to pay big bucks for super talented horses.
The American Nancy Gooding from Plum Creek Hollow farm,
Colorado, USA, once again acquired the price highlight
of the auction. For 300,000 Deutsch Marks she purchased
the top quality show jumper Anchorman (Argentinus x
Goldstern x Abraham). Gooding's first price highlight
from Vechta, Weltissimo (Welt Hit II x Barsoi xx), is
staying in Germany for the 100-day stallion test at
Neustadt/Dosse later this year. Anchorman will reside
in the country as well for further training. The dapple
grey approved stallion Gelasius was sold for 90,000DM.
This Granulit x Argentinus descendant was considered
to be one of the toppers of the collection. Mr Linsenhoff,
the father of Ann Kathrin Kroth-Linsenhoff, purchased
the stallion for one of his clients from Switzerland.
Even
though a jumper was able to set down a top high price,
it were the dressage horses which sold the best. The
parents of Ann Kathrin Ehlen, Peron's former rider,
bought a gorgeous chestnut mare which many people believed
to be the best horse from the lot. Rose la France (Rubinstein
x Inschallah x Volturno xx) descends from the same line
as her former European Championship winning mount Vive
la France. Furthermore, Rose la France is related to
the American Young Riders horse and 1988 Grand Champion
of Devon, Via Mala, recently offered for sale by the
Brown family. Ann Kathrin Ehlen paid 130,000 DM for
the chestnut pearl. Isabell Werth also received a new
potential for the future. Her trainer Dr Uwe Schulten-Baumer
Sr. acquired Andre Rieu (A Jungle Prince x Rubinstein)
for 90,000 DM. The PSI-Team consisting of Dr Ulf Moeller
and Ulrich Kasselmann saw a nice future in James Dean,
a Justinian x Donnerhall get, which they believed worthy
118,000 DM. The average price per horse at the 52nd
elite auction was 57,543 DM.
