The 134th Elite Auction of the Hannoveraner Verband features 87 riding horses, 67 foals and two-year-old stallions – a huge collection of top-class horses.

It will be the first time that show performances will also be included in the auction of riding horses and young stallions on Saturday.
The sale of foals of the first Verden Foal Gala will start on Friday as of 06:00 pm. The quadrille of the German national pony team, the Brüsewitz-brothers with their vaulting program, a pony sulky quadrille as well as some the presentation of the auction horses in the limelight are the festive highlights of the program. The youngest Hanoverians will be in the centre of attention, all of them featuring outstanding pedigree combinations.
The riding horses and stallion prospects will be sold on Saturday as of 02:00 pm. This second part of the auction will also be accompanied by show performances. Besides the quadrille of the German national studs and a presentation of the Hanoverian young breeders, the Hans-Joachim-Köhler-Award will be given.
