The internet auction organised by Troostwijk, the horses are jumping really good these days.

Once a decision is taken , even when it's a difficult one, we must go for it for the 100% .

Together with Troostwijk we have made our collection . We have taken into account a number of recommendations , which made the collection bigger in numbers, as we had first in mind . We arrive at the classification of breeding mares , horses with competition experience , and the promises ( horses with less experience ) .

Within each category,  you can start to look , and there are some very interesting horses in each category .
Good news for interested  buyers, because they are sure to find what they are looking for . The Internet auction is organised by Troostwijk , but here we will not fail to provide  additional information through the website.

What's evan more
important , we want to assist and advise personnally, here at our stable in St-Katelijne-Waver.
The customers expect that service, so the right horse can go to the right new owner.

If you would like to make an appointment in advance , to ride the horses themselves, that 's possible from now until March 16.
   Offers by internet on  Troostwijk  only, and they will be registrated from Tuesday 18th of March. 

We will show all auction horses on Wednesday March 19, at our stable: Hageweg 5, 2860 St-Katelijne-Waver, Belgium .

If conditions permit , the horses can be tried with our assistance, and after having made an appointment on 20 and 21 th of March.

Sunday 23th of  March, we will present a second time the horses, before the bids will close on Tuesday 25 March.
If we can help you with hotel reservation, just let us know by mail: kristel@groep-ceulemans.be, and we 'll take care of it.


That will be the way of working , the competition horses remain just now in the work, and they are doing really good !
Last weekend Christophe Waldburger went to compete in  Azelhof for the Gold Cup with also a few selected auction horses.

Goliath van Vrijhern ( Takeushi x Kitty Van Vrijhern ) jumped only with one time fault in the 1.40m Grand Prix Gold Cup Azelhof .     Goliath also comes from a great damline , this gelding is a half-brother of the Olympic horse Sitah van Vrijhern , half-brother of Harry Potter ( Peter Wylde ) , and half-brother of Cyber ​​van Vrijhern who left some beautiful memories here.     The 8 -year-old Goliath is  nice to ride, and he's a beautiful appearance .

Icoon van de Dreef is a six -year-old gelding , son of Lord Z , out of the Dam of Action Breaker and Quasimodo vd Molendreef . Icoon is also a really competitive horse.  He 's been for a while in France, and since he came back he already won three classes, he started only 3 times.  

After the first two victories at the regional competition LRV class 1.10m on February 9 , another victory on Saturday 15th of Februar in  the 1.10m Gold class in Azelhof .

On Thursday it was another six -year-old chestnut gelding who went for a victory. Babangida vh Gehucht is the full brother of the approved stallion AD Babouche (ridden by Athina Onnassis) .

Interested parties who have watched the entire collection , for sure will find other surprises . We will from now on put  a horse in the picture on a regular basis out of our collection .

A lot of our attention should go out to the Internet auction , without forgetting our sport, that's why we do it for.

This weekend Patrik wil be at the start in the ICT CSI ** Lier in Azelhof , from Friday 21 to Sunday 23 February. Patrik chooses Whitney vd Dwerse Hagen and Dolce Vita ( Darco x Saygon ) . This mare gets her first international show, in breeding , she has already proven her qualities.   Her 4 - year-old son Krezip DH is  accepted so far for the 3rd phase of the BWP stallion approval . Krezip is a son of Va - Vite , who may leave to CSI** Lier in the Azelhof , along with our nephew Jeroen De Winter . Besides Va - Vite, Jeroen choose his Corland-mare Gretel S.

Where we have no choice at all , but are dependent on selections ,  is the provincial championship indoor Broechem for the ponies on 23 February.
Sure of selection are already :
our son Marnick Spits with Katinka the Vrombautshoeve ( also selected for internet auction )
Thibeau Spits with HighTrick ( D- 1m) , Sunny ( D 1.10m) , Kadans vd Groenheuvel (D- 1.10m), Happy C (C-1m) .

Chances are that our  daughter Lauranne Spits has got her selection for its first season in B 80 cm with ponies Tino and Saartje . If she just isn't with the selected riders, than it has got to do something with this jump off, where nothing worked out like she wished..     . If there had been a price for persistence , I think  she might have won it, for sure because she 's only  8 years old..
