A new record has once again been set at the 2007 Oldenburg Foal Auction in Vechta, Germany. The foal Sabeltanz sold for 127,000 euro and broke the record price of 110,000 euro for Fursten Ball paid last year by the Danish Lone Boegh Henriksen.

Sabeltanz, a Sandro Hit x Wolkentanz II colt bred by Luder Lepenies, sold for 127,000 euro to a Brazilian buyer, who got involved in a tough duel with the Danish Lone Boegh Henriksen, who drew her limit at 125,000 euro.

The second most expensive foal was purchased by dressage rider Ann Kathrin Linsenhoff, who paid 72,000 euro for the filly Elfenschau. This Florencio x De Niro filly is bred by Ewald Groteluschen, who last year sold his foal Florion to Austria for 52,000 euro. Linsenhoff also purchased Danönchen, a Danone x Rohdiamant colt bred by the French Xavier Marie, for 46,000 euro.

Tony and Sarah Pidgley acquired Florimax (Florencio x Donnerhall) for 45,000 euro. This colt is bred by Clemens-August Graf von Merveldt.

90 Oldenburg bred foals sold in total for 1,228, 000 euro. The average price for a foal was 13,644 euro. 34 foals sold to foreign buyers. Six of those went to Switzerland and the USA.
