German Sport Horse
The liver chestnut Benicio x Don Diamond colt, the champion of the 2021 German Sport Horse (DSP) Stallion Licensing in Neustadt/Dosse, became the price highlight of the online auction on 30 January 2021.
The 2021 DSP Licensing was full of challenges. Two days before its opening in Munich the District Office closed the event due corona restriction and a new location had to be sought last minute. The Licensing moved to the Brandenburg state stud in Neustadt/Dosse. On 28 January the online auction of the dressage colts took place, but the server of the auction host crashed and the auction had to be delayed by two days.
