About Selecta Dressage

Not an agency.
A different kind of service.

Selecta Dressage Horses was founded on a simple conviction: that the market for high quality dressage horses needed something different. Not another listing platform. Not another agent. A private, relationship-driven service built by professional riders who genuinely understand the sport.

We are not in the business of selling horses. We are in the business of finding the right one.

What is Selecta Dressage

A private service built on
expertise and trust.

Selecta Dressage Horses is a private dressage horse sales service, founded and operated by three professional riders. We maintain an exclusive database of high quality dressage horses — many of which are never publicly listed — and we match them personally to the right rider.

We work with ambitious amateurs, young competitors, professional riders, trainers and investors. Our clients come from Europe, the USA, the Middle East, Asia and Russia. What they have in common is a commitment to quality and a desire for a service that is honest, expert and genuinely personal.

We are not horse brokers. We are riders. Every horse we present has been evaluated from the saddle — for quality of movement, well training, character and health. We know what potential looks like because we have spent our careers on a horse.

"We don't just sell dressage horses. We find the right one for each rider."

— Iñigo, Moisés & Natasja, co-founders

01
Private, not public

Most of our horses are never listed publicly. You get access to an exclusive selection that doesn't exist on any other platform.

02
Evaluated from the saddle

Every horse is assessed by professional riders — not agents. We evaluate movement, training, character and health from first-hand experience.

03
Matched, not listed

We get to know you before we search. Your level, your goals, your character as a rider — these come first.

04
Complete service

From first conversation to international transport — we manage every step. And we don't disappear after the sale.

05
Total transparency

Our fee is 10%, communicated upfront. No hidden commissions. No inflated prices. Ever.

Our standard
How we evaluate
every horse
01
Quality of movement

We evaluate walk, trot and canter — elasticity, balance, rhythm and power. A horse with exceptional movement has a natural advantage at every level of competition.

02
Well training

We assess the quality of training — correctness, throughness, acceptance of the aids. A well-trained horse is a safer investment and a better partner.

03
Character & rideability

A horse's character determines how quickly a new rider partnership forms. We look for willingness, mental stability and genuine rideability — not just performance.

04
Health & soundness

Every horse in our database is assessed for health and soundness. We organise thorough pre-purchase veterinary examinations and attend every vet check in person.

05
The right match

Beyond the horse itself — we evaluate whether this horse is right for this rider. Level, goals, character, trainer. The match is the product.

06
Nothing gets through without our approval

If we would not put a client we care about on this horse, we will not put it in our database. That is the standard. No exceptions.

The team

Three riders. One standard.

We are not agents who sell horses for a living. We are riders who have spent our careers on a horse — and that changes everything about how we find yours.
