Van Olst Sales: good quality is well paid

DEN HOUT – Tonight the sixth Van Olst Sales took place at the accommodation of Gertjan and Anne van Olst. There were 30 horses, most of them recently broken in, under the hammer that raised an average of €34,000.

The auction offered a strong collection. The prices prove that people were also willing to pay for this quality. No fewer than eight horses were sold above €40,000. The horse that received the most bids was the black Loverdale W (Glamourdale x UB40). This full brother of the NRPS-approved stallion Gladiator is leaving for € 210,000 to a dressage stable in the Czech Republic. Gertjan about the auction topper: “It is an exceptional amount for a three-year-old. But it is also an exceptional horse. We are therefore very happy that our regular customers have been able to buy it. In general, we can say that the good quality was well paid.”

Lots of atmosphere in the Van Olst Sales auction arena.

The wild card that joined the collection two weeks before the auction, turned out to be a good move. The stallion of Fürst Romancier named Fürst Romantico, who has already been competing at Intermediair I level, is also leaving for the Czech Republic for € 145,000.

There was lots of interest for the George Clooney son Legolas T prior to the auction. A large number of bidders raised the price to € 52,500. A large number of young horses such as Lucky Star (Everdale x Sonique – € 34,000), Laptop (George Clooney x Lord Leatherdale – € 42,500), and Jaguar (Lord Leatherdale x Negro – € 42,500) exchanged owner for great prices.

Charity
The first auction piece, a cover of world champion Glamourdale, was auctioned for charity. Bidders in the crowded grandstands and VIP area raised a nice €1,700 for the Brooke Hospital for Animals Netherlands foundation.

Lars Pronk had a busy evening because of the many bids.

Winning debut Ferrer-Salat with Negro son Elegance

The CDI3 * in Granada (ESP) was the international debut in the Grand Prix of the Spanish top rider Beatriz Ferrer-Salat with the KWPN bred Elegance. Ferrer-Salat won the Grand Prix with 69,413% and was second in the Special (70,872%) with the son of Negro. Two weeks ago the pair won the Grand Prix and Special nationally with percentages above 70%.

As a three-year-old Elegance was sold to Beatriz Ferrer-Salat. Beatriz also bought Elegance’s full brother, the NRPS approved stallion Nick. Both Nick and Elegance are bred by Van Olst Horses and come from the elite, preferent sport (dres) mare Reina. This daughter of Monaco x Sultan ran herself under the name “The Rose” at international Small Tour level.
The ten-year-old gelding won several young horse classes in Spain and was calmly trained until the Grand Prix. In Granada was the international debut in the Big Tour. In the Grand Prix the combination was first with 69.413%. “I am very happy with Elegance, it was his first international performance and they were not optimal weather conditions,” Ferrer-Salat continued, “so there were moments of excitement, but it is a great horse that is becoming increasingly comfortable in the tests.”

Interesting to note that in the Van Olst Sales collection 2019, two mares from Elegance’s mother will be auctioned. These are number 32 Liza (Nespresso x Monaco x Sultan) and number 36 Lady Rose (Glamourdale x Monaco x Sultan).

Van Olst Sales-mares score well during IBOP

On Friday, April 19, a number of breeding-technically very interesting mares will come under the hammer during the Van Olst Sales 2019. All of them received today in addition to their already received star predicate, also a sufficient score for their performance under saddle during the IBOP test in Turnhout.

In the catalog of the Van Olst Sales 2019 there are not only talented stallions and geldings, but also some very interesting mares. These predominantly 3-year-old mares were all declared ‘ster’ with great points last March and can now also add a sufficient IBOP test. These only three-year-old mares were already riding well on strange terrain by our riders Franka Loos and Benjamin Maljaars. In this way future owners are already very close to an elite / keur mare which can already be a good start for a successful breeding. These mares are also all WFFS-free.

The following mares have passed the IBOP:
Leaulanda I.L.:Glamourdale x Welt Hit II x Zeoliet-Bredder; I. Kruts, Ter Aar 76p
Linda S: Glamourdale x Don Renoir x Brentano II-Breeder; J. Strous, Hunsel 80p
Lady Rose: Glamourdale x Monaco x Sultan-Breeder; Van Olst Horses. Den Hout 75p
Leya-Danka T: Lord Leatherdale x Kennedy x Bustron-Breeder; W. Timmers, Volkel 75p

Lilly LH: Glamourdale x Don Frederico x Walker-Breeder; R. Lickley, Wolverhampton 76.5p
Laida: Everdale x Ferro x G. Ramiro Z-Breeder; M. Streppel, Lemelerveld 76p

Painted Black hengst

Painted Black-daughter auction topper EDS

Charming Lady set the record price of 700,000 euros on the Excellent Dressage Sales last night. The twelve-year-old elite mare, who competed with Jeanine Nieuwenhuis in the Grand Prix, has found a new owner in Germany. The daughter of our preferent top producer Painted Black (Gribaldi x Ferro) was a true audience favorite. This very talented mare, who showed an enormous amount of quality in her piaffe and passage tour, offered fast.

Everdale wins U25 freestyle during Indoor Brabant

Charlotte Fry finished third in the U25 test with Everdale (Lord Leatherdale x Negro) on Friday, but the British rider left no doubt about it in the freestyle on Saturday. With 76.075% Everdale won the victory. The piaffe and passage came back nicely and the stallion showed that he not only has talent for collecting, but also for the extended gates. It was a shame that a mistake in the changes crept into the canter, but the score of more than 76% was more than sufficient for the win.

Fourth place was for Julietta Sione (Everdale x Mataro) with Lars op ’t Hoog and sixth place was for Jive (Everdale x Jazz) with Renee Zomers.
