Auction Visiting Verden for the first time: Minister of Agriculture Christian Meyer in a conversation with the managing director of the State Stud Celle, Dr. Axel Brockman. the support of the Hanoverian Association Promoting Hanoverian Horses FRH. The price structure did not truly reflect the outstanding quality of the horses. For instance Sunciro by Sunlight xx/Velten Third (breeder: Wilhelm Stadtlander, Lilienthal; exhibitor: Ann-Kathrin Stadtlander, Niefern-Oeschelbronn) who is an licensed and performance tested half-bred sire with a show record is a half-brother to licensed Callaho’s Benicio who is the Bundeschampion of six-year old dressage horses in 2011. The blood-influenced horse is still developing. Clients from Spain recognized his potential and were delighted that they were able to buy this talent for 20,000.00 Euros. Sunciro will also remain in Verden to further his training – a true testament of trust in the work of the AAZ from new customers from Spain. Higher prices were also obtained, though. 14 out 50 Hanoverian riding horses sold within the price segment of 25,000 Euros and above. The dressage mare ‘Sie ist schön U’ and jumper mare Valencia sold for 42,000 Euros each. The elegant and beautiful black four-year old dressage prospect by Sir Donnerhall/Metternich (breeder/exhibitor: Jürgen Uhlenwinkel, Grethem) found a new home in the dressage stables of Jörg Schrödter in Leipheim in Bavaria. ‘Sie ist schön U’ proved her qualities in movement and rideability by obtaining placements in riding horse classes as well as with her performance in the mare test where she received a 9,0 for her walk and a 9,0 as the guestrider score. She received an 8,0 for her trot, canter and rideability. Valencia is moving even further south. The twotime Ia-premium recipient by Valentino/Captain Paul (breeder/exhibitor: Heinrich Mues, Stolzenau- Nendorf) found a new owner amidst our new customers from Spain. Spain tops the export leader board of the 128 th Elite Auction with seven purchases. A total of 22 participants sold to foreign customers. Four horses will eat their oats in Finland. Quite a cheerful group bought these horses. They took every Fritz: A dressage vision! An elite auction is always opened by one of the collections best participants! 2013 it was Fritz. The elegant chestnut stallion by Farewell III out of Loraine by Londonderry stimulated the interest of prospective buyers as well as the entire auction team during the two-week long training’s period. The ambitious five-year old dressage talent always gave his best in a calm and composed style. Auction rider Sascha Böhmke commented on the joint training period, “Fritz blossomed in the dressage ring. He attentively awaited the aids of the rider and accepted them with sensitivity. You also could not wish for a better partner when handling him on the ground. He loved to cuddle.” Fritz was born on the farm of Annegreth Winkelmann in Uplengen in 2008. “He was very confident and attentive as a foal. He reacted to anything new with curiosity and trust,” the keen horsewoman who has been dedicated to the Hanoverian breed since 1973 tells. Currently there are eight broodmares on her farm. Fritz’ dam Loraine has delivered a total of three foals. Fritz has two half-sisters – a three- and a four-year old. Both are sired by premium stallion Fiorano and are still owned by Annegreth Winkelmann. “Unfortunately I sold Loraine last year but may get the chance to buy her back. She has produced exceptional offspring.” Annegreth Winkelmann already bred granddam Dunja. This daughter of Dream of Glory/Trajan also produced St. Pr. mare Princess Piccolina by Prince Thatch xx who was awarded a Ia-prize at the breed show in Aurich-Tannenhausen in 2007 where she also became class champion. After Prince Thatch xx the breeder selected Celle’s state stud sire, approval champion and gigantic producer Londonderry for her mare Dunja. Loraine was born in 2004. Wunschtraum by Wiesenbaum xx who is victorious at S-level dressage competitions with rider Karen Schulze-Bergmann heads on the damline of Nordenburg at the competitive level. The chestnut has always been special for Annegreth Winkelmann, “I was moved to tears when I watched Fritz trot around the indoor arena in a relaxed fashion on Friday night during the gala evening.” The powerfully moving Fritz showed his potential as a youngster. Fritz made his public debut at only a few months of age at the German Foal Championships in Lienen where Henrik Klatte from Lastrup saw the promising chestnut. He seized the opportunity and bought the colt from Annegreth Winkelmann. After all sire Farewell III lives in Lastrup with Henrik Klatte. Fritz grew up in the colt fields in Lastrup and was scheduled to be presented at the stallion approval in Verden as well as in Redefin. The dressage aspirant Fritz could not be presented in Verden due to an injury. He was licensed and was awarded a premium at the inspection site in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Fritz completed the 30-day test at the stallion testing station in Neustadt/Dosse with a dressage score of 8,01. The athlete continued to master additional competitions with his excelling talent. He was presented in riding horse classes and dressage tests at the A level seven times and always finished in the ribbons. Fritz finished the final at Verden’s Riding Horse Championships last year in fifth place with rider Hermann Burger. Fritz is looking forward to a successful sport horse career. Even though his new owner is from Switzerland the five-year old Fritz will remain in Lower Saxony with Anna-Sophie Fiebelkorn.

Auction purchase as an opportunity to celebrate. Three horses each sold to the U.S. A. and Switzerland; one horse each to Chile, Denmark, Italy, Canada, the Netherlands and Hungry. The average price for the fifty riding-horses was 22,900.00 Euros – an auction result that is not totally satisfactory as 65 auction participants sold for an average price of 29,000.00 Euros at the Elite Auction in April of 2012. The number of participants was rather low due to an unusually high dropout rate. An additional twelve horses were listed in the catalog. “The number of participants was too low without a doubt for a Hanoverian elite auction. There are many different reasons why twelve horses dropped out. The radiographs were definitely all okay otherwise the horses would not have been accepted in the first place,” auction manager Jörg-Wilhelm Wegener explained. Wegener also did not try to whitewash the lower prices, “Please bear in mind: A year ago exhibitors had no reservations to send the very best to Verden. Allow me to remind you of Lemony’s Nicket. Breeders take the safe route today because of the current market situation. They sell their products as quickly as possible without striving for top prices. All our breeders must recall that successful auctions are advertisement for the Hanoverian horse and with that for all of us.” According to Wegener the elite auction this April was of great interest to our buyers, though. Foals that were captivating The foal collection not only had about the same number of participants as in 2012 (43 versus 44 last year), it also obtained nearly the same average price. This is not a given fact as especially the foal market is tough that early on in the year. “The time of foaling has changed. Foals are born much later than even a few years ago,” breeding manager and managing direction Dr. Werner Schade explained. “We have to select foals at a very early ageand it is not easy.” The selection was clearly successful. One reason may have been the late inspection date that had been set because of the market situation and the late foaling dates. 42 youngsters sold for an average price of 6,750.00 Euros while last year 44 foals sold for an average price of 6,800.00 Euros. Customers from Spain and Finland also took a great interest in the foal collection. Each bought five Hanoverian weanlings; three foals sold to the USA, two each to Belgium and Great Britain and one each to Australia, Italy and Portugal. The auctioneers Daniel Delius and Bernd Hickert obtained 10,000.00 Euros or more for six foals. Sansibar who is a colt by Surprice (a son of Sir Donnerhall) and out of a dam by Brentano II/Wolkentanz (breeder/exhibitor: Gerhard Dieckhaus, Visbek) was the top-selling foal. The new owner of the bay is a breeder from Kirchlinteln who raises colts. He owns Rassolini, too. The Hessian sire won the Nürnberger Burgpokal in 2010 under Verden’s former auction rider Kathrin Meyer zu Strohen. In regard to auction riders: They did a great job acting calmly and skillfully even though they had been criticized heavily and sometimes in an uncalled-for fashion in the discussions about the structures of the association during the last weeks prior to the auction. “It is bad that young people who do an excellent job with a lot of passion are exposed to such attacks,” Dr. Werner Schade commented. “It is time now to focus on the significant.” The auctions. • Statistics Riding horses No. of horses offered 50 horses No. of horses sold 50 horses Net proceeds Euro 1.145.000,00 Average price Euro 22.900,00 Top price Euro 92.000,00 Lowest price Euro 9.000,00 Price structure Euro 8.000 to 9.999 2 horses Euro 10.000 to 14.999 7 horses Euro 15.000 to 24.999 27 horses Euro 25.000 to 49.999 13 horses Euro 50.000 and more 1 horse Sales by regions Lower Saxony 10 Bavaria 9 Brandenburg 1 Hamburg 3 Hessioan 1 NRW 2 Saarland 1 Total Germany 27 horses Chile 1 Denmark 1 Finland 4 Italy 1 Canada 1 The Netherlands 1 Switzerland 3 Spain 7 USA 3 Hungary 1 Total foreign countries 23 horses Statistics Foals No. of horses offered 43 foals No. of horses sold 42 foals Net proceeds Euro 283.500,00 Average price Euro 6.750,00 Top price Euro 20.000,00 Lowest price Euro 3.000,00 Price structure Euro 2.500 to 3.999 Euro 4.000 to 4.999 Euro 5.000 to 7.999 Euro 8.000 to 9.999 Euro 10.000 and more 6 foals 5 foals 23 foals 2 foals 6 foals Sales by regions Lower Saxony 17 Bavaria 1 Berlin 1 Hamburg 2 NRW 1 Total Germany 22 foals Australia 1 Belgium 2 Finland 5 Great Britain 2 Italy 1 Portugal 1 Spain 5 USA 3 Total foreign countries 20 foals The top-selling foal: Sansibar by Surprice/Brentano II.
