Breeders take note: bidding on the sixteen in-foal mares and three embryos in the KWPN Online Auction closes tonight at 8:00 PM. A great opportunity to start the foaling season on a strong note.

Interested parties from, among others, France and the Netherlands have already discovered the collection and placed the first bids. The collection consists of in-foal mares by sires such as Jazz, Eldorado van de Zeshoek, Vitalis, Fürst Romancier, and De Niro.

Investing in the future
At the start of the foaling season, this is the perfect moment to purchase an in-foal mare, with a foal expected in the near future. An interesting option is the Vitalis daughter Riverdale VG, who scored 80 points in the EPTM and was bred out of a half-sister to the international Grand Prix stallion Chagall D&R and the keur-awarded Small Tour stallion Bretton Woods. Riverdale VG is in foal to Sénégal de Fontaine. Another valuable addition is the elite mare Jurella B (s.Desperado), in foal to Roman Empire. She is a half-sister to the national Grand Prix winner Upset and the Small Tour horses Emily and Casanova B. The five-year-old Rock Daranka MB (s.Taminiau) also comes from a strong damline and is a half-sister to the Intermediate II horse Ivanhoe MC and the Small Tour horse Newton MC. This promising elite mare is also related to the WEG dressage horse Aranco V and is in foal to Renzo. One of the interesting embryos is sired by Dynamic Dream, bred out of a half-sister to no fewer than three Grand Prix dressage horses, including the approved stallion Willingapark Sky Diamond. The granddam is the full sister to the Grand Prix sport and breeding legend Diamond Hit.
