The former Bundeschampion Sir Heinrich from the Wendeln family’s successful breeding program has already produced so many good horses, and now also a champion stallion and a top auction horse with the look of his sire. The winning bid of 265,000 euros went to the Bellin stud in Brandenburg.
His champion stallion colleague by Feliciano from the direct line of the Lord Sinclair brothers was knocked down to the Netherlands for 56,500 euro. The reserve winner by Juwel was not for sale. He is jointly owned by Ralph Westhoff/Gestüt Riedmühle and Sönke Rothenberger and is to be placed at the Tebbel station.
Four other stallions were in the six-figure range. One of these was the prize-winning Zackerey-Fürst Heinrich son by Heinrich Ramsbrock, who went to Sprehe Stud for 150,000 euros. The offspring of Global Player, bred and exhibited by Christian Wittlinger, cost 130,000 euro. The also award-winning sons of Energy (A.: Justin Klausing) and Dutch Dream (A.: Franz-Georg Ottmann) were available for 125,000 and 100,000 euro respectively.
Jumping stallions
There was also one jumping stallion that cost six figures. And here, too, the customers would have decided differently than the licensing committee. The reserve winner by Million Dollar-Caretino from the dam line of Diarado, bred and exhibited by Klaus Issak, went to France for 102,000 euros.
The highest bid for the Champion Stallion by Heartbreaker-Diarado, presented by Jürgen Laue in Munich, was 60,000 euros. The second reserve winner by Cornet’s Balou-Chellano Z, presented by Jürgen Laue together with Hartmut Keitel, cost just as much.
The second-highest bid in the jumping stallion category was 82,000 euros for the award-winning direct Chacco-Blue son from Gestüt Sprehe.
