Spanish Grand Prix team rider Jordi Domingo acquired the price highlight of the first Performance Plus Online Auction of 2020, which concluded on Monday 13 July.
A collection of 16 horses was offered for sale, 13 of them were sold.
"The Performance Plus Online Auction was a great success," said a proud co-organizer Eugene Reesink. "Thirteen horses were sold through the auction and for the 3 unsold ones there was a lot of interest immediately after the auction."
Price Highlight to Spain
The top seller was the 3-year-old stallion Magic DW (by Gunner KS x Wynton). This eye-catcher sold for 45,000 euro after an exciting bidding duel between a Czech investor and Spanish Grand Prix rider Jordi Domingo. In the end, Jordi Domingo had the highest bid.
The amazing 3-year-old mare Mulana TM (by Imagine x Ampère) sold for 43,000 to a talented rider from Kentucky, USA.
Three-year old colt Franz Ferdinand (by Ferdinand x Krack C) fetched 32,000 euro and the same price was paid for Messi (by Indian Rock x Prestige VDL).
Magic Johnson van de Mustang (by Johnson x Florencio) had a top bid of 30,000 euro.
"There were bids from many countries," Reesink explained. "The horses were sold to buyers from Norway, Kentucky (USA), California (USA), Belgium, Spain, Canada, Russia and of course the Netherlands."
Second Performance Plus Auction in October
The Performance Plus Online Auction was a shared initiative between LvD Sporthorses, MT-Stables, Stal Wetzelaer, Leonie Bos and Reesink Horses.
"This success naturally requires a follow-up," said the organizers. "We have decided that the next auction will take place from 9 to 12 October 2020."
