(Neumünster – Press Release) At last, in less than four weeks the Holsteiner horses are going to enter the Neumünster Holstenhalls with the proud breeders presenting their uncut diamonds at the stallion grading and elite riding horse auction. After the three- to five-year-old riding horse lot, the colts presented for grading are now also available for online viewing on
holsteiner.auction.
70 promising stallion candidates have been admitted to the Neumünster highlight by the
committee comprising breeding director Stephan Haarhoff (Kiel), Micheal Gonell
(Eckernförde), Horst Klaus Heleine (Ober-Ramstadt), Lars Nieberg (Sendenhorst) and
Christian Thoroe (Friedrich-Wilhelm-Lübke-Koog) this year. Once again, the lot is strongly
influenced by the Cor de la Bryère line, with six colts by Casall alone. His sons Cascadello I, Central Park, Chopin, and Cieran, same as his grandsons Charleston, Clarksville, and Christersend offspring, as well.
Three sons of Cornet Obolensky are among the Cor de la Bryère representatives, as well, while the L sire line is represented by three colts by Livello or else Larimar.
In addition to that Diamant de Semilly is present with his sons and grandsons, providing the desired genetic diversity through Diarado, Dominator Z, and Denver. Verband
stallion Uriko sends three sons to the Holstenhall arena this year, his son United Way
premieres with as much as three stallion candidates.
Other candidates which might provide interesting genetic alternatives are by outcross sires like Emerald van het Ruytershof, I’m Special de Muze or Manchester van’t Paradijs.
