Denmark's leading horse dealers are bringing together the "Best of Denmark" in the 2020 Nordic International Sales with a live auction on Saturday 5 September 2020. The auction starts at 20h30, while online pre-bidding begins on Thursday 3 September at 17h00.
Since 2017, the Nordic International Sales, hosted at Helgstrand Dressage, has been one of the leading foal auctions in the country, sourcing foals from the most liked dressage breeding stallion and out of proven dam lines.
"The auction is organized by Denmark's most experienced in the field of horse dealing," said Louise Ringbo, who represents the Danish warmblood society at NIS. "Here you will get advice from experts and a rare opportunity to acquire a foal of exceptional class."
Spectacular Collection
A collection of 15 carefully selected foals will be offered for sale in the 2020 Nordic International Sales.
Some of the highlights are catalog nr 1, Gørklintgaards Blackberry (by Franklin x Gørklintgaards Santos x Quaterback). This femine, balanced filly has a ground covering trot and excellent canter. Her dam line produced several S-level horses, as well as the Danish Dressage Mare of the Year, Gørklintgaards Brody.
Catalog nr 2, Grøntang Dot Com (by Duke x Tailormade Tempttion x Bernstein) is a powerful colt with a dazzling appearance and attitude. This colt has it all. He is out of Hojegaardens Miss Magnifique, who qualified for the Danish Young Horse Championships and who is a full sister to the gold medal mare Højgaardens Miss Unique.
Catalog nr 3, Firecracker Pilekaer (by Franklin x Zack x Danone II) is a really exciting and appealing colt with lots of scope and near-perfect knee and hock action. He presents himself with lots of self-confidence and just radiates harmony. His engine from behind is efficient and strong. This colt's dam line has no less than four Silver medal mares in line. His dam Mazai Pilekær had the highest mare testing result of the year.
Catalog nr 7, Gammelenggards Super Liga (by Blue Hors Livius x Don Romantic x Akinos) is truly in a league of his own. Despite his young age, he moves convincingly with great suppleness. This is a foal for the picky rider who looks for something exceptional. His dam was invited to the Danish Elite Mare Show and scored 9 for type and 8,5 for canter and rideability as a 3-year-old. The dam line is strong, with three generations of elite mares behind. The grand dam Aparte Foldager is a half-sister to the successful Grand Prix horse Akeem Foldager, and she is the dam of the Grand Prix horse Gammelengårds Easy and the DWB licensed stallion Gammelenggårds Zappa.
Catalog nr 13, Tjørnegardens Tennessee (by Janeiro Platinum x Hotline x Michellino) is leggy, uphill, and feminine filly. Her movement is ground covering and elastic, and she exhibits good knee and hock action. She is out of well-bred dressage blood. She is sister to Hedelunds Anakin, who was awarded a 10 for rideability and 9,5 for capacity by test rider Daniel Bachmann Andersen at the 2020 Danish Young Horse Championship in Herning.
