When the “KUP meets Oldenburg – Elite Show Jumping Foals Auction” makes its debut on Friday, August 7, as part of the new KUP Familie & Sports tournament in Ehlersdorf, exceptional young talents will take center stage—where top international bloodlines meet grand athletic visions. This exclusive collection combines state-of-the-art show jumping genetics, proven performance bloodlines, and the potential for tomorrow’s championships.

One foal that captivates at first glance is Cat No. 7, Corchav SV, born May 12, 2026, by Cornet Obolensky out of Chacatella PS by Chacco-Blue-Balou du Rouet-Contender, bred by Stoeterij Vledderlanden bv, Netherlands. Here, two of the world’s most influential show jumping sires come together to form a pedigree that could hardly be more exclusive. Cornet Obolensky epitomizes talent, technique, and international top-class performance like few others, while Chacco-Blue has been shaping the world’s elite show jumping breeding for years. But Corchav SV impresses not only on her sire’s side: His dam, Chacatella PS, is a full sister to Chacella—who was successful up to 1.45 m—and to S&L Libster 123 by Elvis ter Putte. The subsequent generations also represent consistent top-level performance: Granddam Catouet is a sister to Lira by Lord Pezi—who was successful up to 1.40 m—and to Calotta by Lord Pezi. Third dam Catella is a sister to Catman by Cassini, who was successful up to 1.45 m, and Hanna by Capitol I. The famous line 6582 has produced greats such as the stallions Calypso I through IV and Askari, as well as international top stars like Coco Bongo with Eric Lamaze and Aretino with Gilles Thomas.

No less exclusive is Cat. No. 8, Point of Surprise, born June 2, 2026, by Point Break out of Kannan’s Surprise by Kannan-Polydox-Pilot, bred by Pferdezucht Blüggel GbR, Hamm. This prospective stallion is a true rarity: His sire, Point Break, impressed at the 1.60-meter level under Olympic champion Ben Maher and, due to his active competitive career, remains one of the rare sires with a small but highly sought-after progeny. This makes the opportunity to acquire a son of this exceptional stallion all the more valuable. The dam line also leaves nothing to be desired: Kannan’s Surprise is the sister of World Cup Final winner Simon, ridden by Beezie Madden, as well as three other internationally successful show jumpers up to 1.60 m. The same bloodline also produced Gigi’s Girl BH by Vingino and her son Hearst DB, who was also successful internationally at the 1.60 m level.

With the “KUP meets Oldenburg – Elite Show Jumping Foals” auction, the Oldenburg Horse Breeding Association is setting a new benchmark in the marketing of top-class show jumping foals. Anyone who invests here acquires far more than a promising foal—they secure the chance at a future competition partner for international championships.

On August 7, the hammer will fall in Ehlersdorf for tomorrow’s champion.
