Bolesworth Elite Auction Dates Announced for Inaugural Online Event

Organisers of the Bolesworth Elite Auction have announced the inaugural online version of the event will commence on Tuesday 30th June 2020, with bidding live from Friday 26th June.

With headline lots including direct progeny from top Grand Prix mares Loughview Loulou and Tinka’s Serenade, and a half Brother to Scott Brash’s Hello Sanctos, it promises to be one of the events most spectacular line ups to date.

In an innovative move, Bolesworth has partnered with leading Belgian online auction providers PWeb Solutions who are globally recognised for their expertise in providing easy to use and compliant online auction platforms. PWeb’s clients include the Billy Stud, KWPN, Palm Beach and Zangersheide auctions, so vendors and prospective buyers can be assured they are in safe hands.

As champions for British Breeding, Bolesworth will be partnering with a selection of the UK’s leading breeders, including Davenport Stables, Shirley Light, Padraig McCarthy, and Laura Tinto.

Long term partner and world-renowned breeder Paul Hendrix will again be presenting three of his elite yearlings from 2019. With his breeding programme aligned with the Bolesworth ethos of using proven sport mares from outstanding black-type dam lines, combined with high performing stallions Paul’s, yearlings will complement the exceptional collection on offer in June.

Another area of importance is to give prospective buyers the ability to spend time researching their potential purchases; therefore, all lots can be previewed online from Monday 8th June. Videos, photography, and full pedigrees will be available to view from then onwards. Vetting certificates will also be available to view online before the auction, with all lots subject to a clean two-stage vetting within 14 days of when the bidding starts.

Said Nina Barbour, Bolesworth Managing Director:

The fact that we will have twenty-five future stars on offer is testament that our breeders and vendors trust in the Bolesworth brand. With progeny of some of the world’s top sires including Diamant De Semilly, I’m Special de Muse, Untouchable and Malito De Reves on offer, we hope that buyers will take the opportunity to invest in a future Los Angeles 2028 medal hope.”

The auction will conclude on the evening of Tuesday 30th June. Prospective bidders will need to register online, and all information can be found on www.boleswortheliteauctions.com
