The best way to buy a Hanoverian is at the Verden auctions. The wide selection on offer at the auctions shows something for everyone. Foals, brood-mares, riding-horses, stallions - here erveryone can find the horse that suits him.
The auctions were originally introduced to be sales for the individual breeders. Most of the Hanoverian breeders own just one to three brood mares and their opportunities to sell are correspondingly limited. That is exactly the reason what the autions came into being. Only someone who owns at least one registered brood mare and has covered is allowed to present a horse there.
Moreover the horses offered at these auctions are selected out af al large number of horses. Twice a year a selction commission goes on a tour through the whole breeding area and selects the best horses at places which have been stipulated in advance. 700 to 800 horses are regularly shown for each riding horse auction. For the Elite Foal Auction there are frequently no less than 500 foals presented für selection.
