Gelded and Sold

Helgstrand has sold a gelded Fynch Hatton to his loyal client Yara Reichert as an FEI prospect for sport.

One week after Eurodressage contacted Reichert to confirm the sale, the rider posted on Instagram stories, "yes he is here, he came as a gelding, he's an awesome guy. We need to get to know each other, acquaint ourselves with one another - who are you, who am - before our journey starts. We'll give it a try."

As a breeding stallion he sired one licensed son so far (Fascination) and one state premium daughter in Germany. His foals were highly coveted in auctions in Europe.
