Last year, there was an audience of thousands that watched the successful first edition of the KWPN Select Sale from the stands or the loges of the Brabanthallen. This year, the number of visitors to the auction will be even greater but some of those interested in the auction will be at home sitting at their computers. Via a unique service it is now possible to bid online for the young stallions in the arena during the auction. The ‘internet auction’ runs simultaneously with the ‘real’ auction. This is a unique opportunity for interested buyers both at home and abroad.

There is now the possibility, via a new service, to bid online during the auction for the horses that are in the sales arena. The ‘internet auction’ is ‘real time’ and runs, thus, parallel to the auction in the Brabanthallen. The online auction can be followed by every internet visitor. In order to participate in the bidding for a stallion, the internet visitor must first register via the site. After screening from the organization, seriously interested parties will receive a password and therefore the possibility to take part in the bidding. Applications can be accepted up to and including Thursday 31 January 2002. Information about joining the auction and buying via the Internet is available on the site www.kwpn.nl
