Organisers of CHI Royal Windsor Horse Show today announced a stellar line-up of competitors entered for the national classes at this year’s Show, taking place from 1 – 4 July. Over 1,700 entries have been received across the national Showing, Show Jumping and National Driving classes, laying the foundation for an exceptional four days of competition.

Youhorse.auction is ready to close

Youhorse.auction is ready to close

The end of the 11th Youhorse.auction is coming closer! Don't miss the countdown, starting tonight at 20.30 local time (CET).

Many young horses have now been saddle broken. The horses that were already under the saddle have learned a lot in the meantime. Some even jumped at shows and several horses have been tried by clients.

In short, when they come home to their new owners, they can get started right away. What you see is what you get, and even better. These horses will make you happy!

We wish you good luck and a lot of fun during the bidding process

The online auction starts closing on Tuesday evening June 1 at 20.30 pm CET (local time)
