2016 Brightwells Elite December Dressage Sale - Auction Horse In the Spotlight: Knightsbridge (WILDCARD)

3-year old Licensed Stallion by Totilas x Hotline x Dream Of Glory

Knightsbridge is licensed with the Anglo European Studbook (AES). His sire is one of the best dressage horses of all time, Totilas. The three-time World Champion has made his mark as a sire too; he produced the most expensive foal of all time, Total Recall (200.000 euros) at the foal auction in Vechta. Total Ideal cost 105.000 euros at the Oldenburg Summer Mixed Sales and Tout le Monde was sold for 90.000 euros at the Oldenburg elite foal auction in 2011. Since, 16 of his sons have been licensed, including Toto Jr. who was sold for a top price at the Hanoverian Stallion Market in Verden in 2013 at 100.000 euros. Governor and Top Gear were both Reserve Champions of their licensing’s and Talismann (360.000 euros) was ranked in the Verden premium lot in 2014. Knightsbridge's motherline brings the blood of another outstanding dressage stallion, Hotline. Hotline is currently competing at Grand Prix under Daniel Bachmann Andersen. Knightsbridge is full of presence, quality and power.

A raw, unspoilt dressage stallion, with an exciting future ahead of him!
