Bon Jovi, 190,000 € Price Highlight of the
108th Elite Auction in Verden
The
108th Elite Auction of Hanoverian Sport Horses, Ponies
and Foals produced only one remarkable price highlight
and the rest of the collection was auctioned for "normal"
Verden prices. The tumultuous political situation in
the world was most likely the cause for many American
pocket books to stay away. Only 5 horses were sold to
the U.S. and that's a historical low as usually 35%
of the horses are sold to North America. The average
auction price was 23.328 € and 73 horses were sold.
Price highlight was Bon Jovi, a chestnut gelding by
Brentano II x Weltmeyer. Bred and presented at the auction
by Horst Kiehne from Gehrde, Bon Jovi was sold to Dressage
Stable Luttgen in Kerpen for 190,000 €. Most expensive
show jumper was Crazy Girl, a Chasseur x Espri mare
who was sold to Gestut Sprehe for 51,000 €.
Second
most expensive horse was the dressage prospect DJ Diamond,
a dark bay De Niro x Singular Joter gelding, with three
expressive basic gaits. The elegant 4-year old was sold
for 65,000 € and will stay in Germany. Most expensive
pony was Bella Riva, a De Vito x Mandingo offspring
who moved to Finland for 5,500 €.
46 foals were presented in the foal collection, of
which the foals reached an average price of 4,356 €
per foal. Highlight was the cute Waterloo
(Wolkentanz x Don Bosco) who was sold to a Bavarian
buyer for 16,500 €.
