Peer Gynt became the price highlight of the dressage collection for the 2020 Prinsjesdag Foal Auction, of which the first edition concluded on 16 June 2020.
The Prinsjesdag auction followed a slightly different "online" format from the other online auction, where bidding is purely done via a website. Auctioneer Peter van der Waaij hosted an active online, streamed auction by presenting the auction in a studio. The auctioneer commented on the video footage of the foals after which the bidding could be done.
The first of several Prinsjesdag online auctions featured a collection of 10 jumper foals and 7 dressage foals. The best selling foal was jumper Chickey A (by Comme Il Faut), which sold for 29,000 euro.
The price highlight of the dressage collection was the colt Peer Gynt (by Jameson x Dante Weltino). He is bred by dressage rider Nathalie Smeets and sold for 22,000 euro to a Dutch customer
Pirelli (by Le Formidable x Charmeur x Rousseau) sold to a Dutch client for 11,000 euro. This colt is bred by Stal Zernike
Pivesta (by Le Formidable x Vivaldi) sold to a Dutchman for 10,000 euro.
The chestnut colt Promes (by For Romance x Negro) sold for 10,000 euro to a Dutch client.
The next Prinsjesdag online foal auction is scheduled for 21 July 2020.
