The New York auction is a free event that anyone can attend. The party will begin with free food and drinks, and the bidding will start at 7 p.m. with two miniature horses, Sebastian and Sancho, with the proceeds of their purchase going to Just World International.
WHAT: Friday’s presentation will show the horses’ talent jumping under saddle. The horses will be shown by international riders Hillary Dobbs, Peter Leone, and Hanno Ellerman, as well as up-and-coming grand prix star, 16-year-old Michael Hughes.
The auction will feature 15 young jumpers, most of them just shipped over from Holland. All of the youngsters have impeccable breeding and come from the best breeders in Holland. One breeder is Team Nijhof, who is recognized as one of the top breeders in the world and home to legendary stallions like Voltaire, Heartbreaker, Concorde, Clinton, Lord Z, Eldorado, Burgraaff, and Verdi. Team Nijhof will be at the New York auction to provide information on their horses.
