Bolesworth’s inaugural Online Elite Yearling Auction came to an exciting close on Tuesday night. The final bidding frenzy came late in the day as the pressure to secure a future Grand Prix or medal winning horse mounted. It was lot number 12,  Flamenco's Serenade which came out on top reaching an impressive £32,000. The chestnut colt is by Je T'aime Flamenco out of Tinka's Serenade (Tinkas Boy). Both parents had multiple Grand Prix wins around the globe with Tinka's Serenade competing at Olympic and World Championship level. Said Janette Chinn & Sue Davies of Pewit Stud, breeders and vendors of Tinka's Serenade, “I’d like to thank Nina and the team at Bolesworth for allowing British breeders to showcase their quality youngstock to such an elite audience. We are pleased to have secured top lot again with our homebred colt and hope he can go on to emulate his parent's success. We will watch his career with interest!” The average hammer price of the collection as a whole was £12,500, with AES yearlings strongly represented, including Lelita HF by Diamant de Semilly out of the successful 1.45m mare Lexie III who was bred by Nick Ward. Said Nina Barbour, Bolesworth Managing Director: “This truly was one of our most spectacular Collections to date. Our targeted global campaign to the prevalent showjumping nations has proven hugely successful in attracting a real global audience for this year's auction. Several of the lots been sold to overseas buyers which is testament that we are selecting the right calibre of horses with the best breeding.” Congratulations to Nina and her team at Bolesworth, and of course to the breeders!
