In autumn 2013, the Casalito-Quidam de Revel-Contender son Coolio was sold as a foal via a Holsteiner auction in Elmshorn. Today, the stallion bred by Martina Wirtz (Wulkenzin), stem 2067, is placed at the highest level in the show jumping arena with Marcel Marschall (GER).
The rider had taken over Coolio as a six-year-old and "always knew that he was very special", as he says. Last year, the duo made their debut appearance at a World Cup leg in Lyon (FRA), among other events, and were part of the winning German team in the Nations Cup of Budapest. In addition, they collected numerous placings in the Grands Prix of Gorla Minore (ITA), St. Tropez (FRA) and Valence (FRA). In 2023, they have already been successful on the international stage in Gothenburg (SWE).
Just like with Coolio and Marcel Marschall, many sporting success stories have begun at a Holsteiner foal auction. In 2023, the team of the Vermarktungs und Auktions GmbH once again offers numerous auctions as a marketing platform for your Holsteiner foals.
