Beautiful, the deepest black, strong moving, with a charming character and wonderful temperament – this is how the top-priced dressage highlight at the 3rd Oldenburg Online Special Edition shone. The online collection impressed with outstanding dam lines, which are carefully cherished by pioneering breeding stables, and lead to success.
Bred by Dr. Gisa Löwe and exhibited by Damil Dressage, the the price highlight was the four-year-old Mister Universe (Morricone I x San Amour I x Fürst Heinrich) sold for €340,000 and this beauty from the famous Cileste dam line will now move to new clients in Switzerland. His sire is none other than Oldenburg's champion stallion Morricone I, who is currently causing a sensation with Lena Waldmann for Gestüt Bonhomme, has now achieved a second successive top price with his offspring. The dam, and champion mare Chere Amie, is the sister of Rubin de Luxe, Intermediaire I with Ulf-Peter König. The third dam, Cileste II, is sister to Donner Hit OLD, Grand Prix with Ellen Bodenkamp, and the famous Welthit dynasty.
The average price of the sport horse collection was around €35,500 with 28 sport horses selling for a total of €1 million. Eleven of the Oldenburg horses will make a career internationally, moving to the USA (two), plus one apiece to Belgium, Denmark, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Panama, Poland, Sweden, Spain, and Switzerland.
