 Wittinger
became the price highlight of the 3rd Equine
Elite Auction in Hooge Mierde, The Netherlands,
on October 27, 2007. The Rhodium x Jet Set stallion
sold for 280,000 euro to Denmark.
The 2007 Equine Elite Auction was as much an
entertainment show as an auction of international
calibre horses. Renowned music stars Lee Towers,
Lou Bega and Eimear Quinn brought their greatest
hits during and after the auction, while the
auction was opened by SBS-6 TV starlet Christina
Bosolivic.
The entire gold medal winning Dutch dressage
team was present at the auction and were involved
in the sale or purchase of several auction horses.
Horses were sold between 13,000 and 280,000 euro
with buyers from Holland, the USA, Belgium, Denmark,
England, Finland, Sweden, and Switzerland. |
Organizers
Craig Rawlins and Diederik Wigmans commented: "we
are incredibly proud of this fantastic evening.
Of course it is fun that we had a few price highlights
but many horses were also sold at affordable
prices. This auction has something to offer for
every type of buyer."
