Prinsjesdag foal auction concludes successful season with jumping auction in Ermelo
On Tuesday, September 16, traditionally on Prinsjesdag, the Prinsjesdag Foal Auction will organize its fourth and final auction of 2025. While previous editions this year took place in Deurne, Houten and Grootebroek, the auction organization is now returning to the familiar NatiNational Equestrian Center in Ermelo. This time with a collection that is entirely dedicated to show jumping horse breeding: 40 carefully selected show jumping foals form the collection.
The 40 showjumping foals all come from strong dam lines and combine proven showjumping genes with cutting-edge stallions. This means that the Prinsjesdag Foal Auction once again offers breeders and investors the opportunity to invest in tomorrow's top showjumping talent. "With this final auction, we conclude a successful auction year in which we were successful at three beautiful locations. The collection in Ermelo once again underscores our ambition to bring breeders and buyers together around the very best showjumping genes," says chairman Arjan van der Waaij.
1.60m mothers and grandmothers
With dams and granddams that have proven themselves at Grand Prix level, such as the dams of the fillies Agata vd Berghoeve Z (by Agalord KCX Berghoeve) and Camilla KCX (by Iron Man VD Padenborre), the dam of the colt Uzario van de Cruyenvelden Z (by United Touch S), the granddam of the colt Diacanan (by Diaron) or the granddam of Vulcanico Reuvekamps (by Chacfly), the multiple Nations Cup winner S Umonia I, the foals are not lacking in quality.

The legendary genes of Usha van 't Roosakker are also evident in this collection, as are the influences of Ratina Z. Or how about the colt Une Pepperoni GZ (by Pagani of the Paddocks) out of the half-sister of Hendrik von Eckermann's Glamour Girl? Vero Blue (by Cero Blue TN), his dam, is the half-sister of multiple Grand Prix winner Highway TN.
