The 4-year old NRPS licensed stallion Guinnes (Glamourdale x Johnson x Haarlem) became the best seller of the 2021 Van Olst Sales of ridden horses. This very striking black stallion was sold to Marc Geerts’ jumper brood farm Tommelberg in Loenhout, who recently started investing in dressage horses. He is now the new owner for no less than €130,000.
We knew upfront that there was a lot of interest in Guinness and Noire NA. Noire NA, by Painted Black, managed to keep the bidding going the longest and was sold for €90.000,-. Jack, the first horse in the auction was not sold, just as the stallions Depay and Irvin who will also stay in Den Hout. Mabel by Dettori will go to an English stable and Mistral by Fiamingho will leave for Canada. The other horses have been sold to England and to Dutch riders.
Less than 48 hours to go before the Van Olst Sales Online Ridden Horses 2021 starts!

An international competition is currently taking place in Exloo.
A good time to take out the horses that have been trained at home after all the successes of recent times.
1 of these horses is the 7-year-old Everdale son Especial, bred by CJJ van Bavel from Oosterhout out of the Vivaldi mare Ethel.
The elegant gray gelding made his debut at this international competition in the Prix st. Georges. At 7 years old, he was the youngest participant in this class and managed to achieve a score of more than 68%. In the Intermediare I class, which was held on Friday, the pair managed to achieve a score of 69.6%.
Again a son of Everdale who is successful in the Prix st. Georges. We are very satisfied with a debut like this and are looking forward to the future with this top talent.

With 83.5 points, Narzar (Glamourdale out of Zarzar elite IBOP-dres pref PROK by Jazz, breeder W. Smid of Nuis) owned by J. Hooge of Ees achieved the highest score of the day. This three-year-old scored 8s and 8.5s and became an instant elite mare thanks to the IBOP. “This mare stood out with three good basic gaits and a beautiful silhouette. She walks well, trots with impulsion, suppleness, good posture and a nice foreleg technique. In canter she has a lot of power, space and attitude. In addition, the image is always uphill and moves with good behavior. She is also a pleasure to ride,” says Bart Henstra.
