This auction made its mark in 2020 by being the first major online auction, to be organized in the midst of a global pandemic. The objective was to meet the needs of buyers, by offering a very high quality of sport horses, but also a series of very useful services, in a time where travel restrictions were affecting the entire planet.

In 2021, nothing has really changed, except the outbreak of the Rhinopneumonia Virus, which has also been added as a constraint, when it comes to travelling with horses. Now, The Collection team is back in force. Milestone Farm (Carlos Pinto and his wife, Willemijn Poels) and ST Stables (Steve Tinti) have gathered their total of 20 years experience in the field of horse trading. In other words, they are fully aware of market supply and demand and have managed to build an outstanding catalog of an even higher quality than last year.

It’s all about details, results and talent. With an impressive catalog of 13 young Grand Prix prospects, internationally proven horses and 3 hunters, we have exceeded the high standards we set last year in the first edition of The Collection!” said Steve Tinti.

“The quality, appearances and attitude make this collection of hunters very complete,” said Willemijn Poels. “The Collection Auction is not just a simple online auction. The idea remains, in addition to the high quality of horses, to offer unparalleled services and guarantees in order to adapt to the current situation,” said Carlos Pinto.

A complete catalog of 16 horses. Most of the horses have already shown their qualities on the international circuit or on the circuit for young horses. All the horses in The Collection have been tested for EHV-1 and piroplasmosis, to ensure that all the necessary tests, blood work and health requirements are met. In addition, The Collection offers you to organize the transport of the horses purchased by you. If the border of your country is currently closed for horses, The Collection offers to take care of the horse, at the expense of the organizers, until the border reopens.
