Bidding has begun for The Billy Stud Autumn Online Auction with a collection of 12 four and five year olds coming forward from world class sires including Cicero, For Pleasure, Zirocco Blue, Comilfo Plus Z and Billy Congo.
Our reputation is growing continually with our online auctions and the progression makes me very proud of what we have created. Our Summer Auction lived up to my expectations and I was pleased to see bidders from across the globe showing such an interest.

The collection will be showcased today Thursday 9th at 6.00pm GMT at All England Jumping Course, Hickstead, giving a unique opportunity to view the horses at this iconic show ground. The Billy Stud team will also be on hand to accommodate private viewings preceding the auction.
You can see from the direct family relations, how comprehensive our breeding and production programme has become. In this collection you have the half-sister of Billy Diamo who was shortlisted for this year’s Tokyo Olympic Games, the half-brother of Billy Angelo who I had a lot of success with up to 1.60m, the half-sister to Billy Fanta and the half-sister of Billy Manjaro both of whom jumped 1.50m-1.60m. Horses like the ones in this collection keep me motivated, watching young talent like them is the best part of the job in my opinion!
