Horse tramples through the VIP-lounge at horse auction in Belgium

The TEN was a hit tonight. A brand new auction concept presented by Tal Milstein, Ilan Ferder, Daniel Bluman, Carlo Pfyffer and Gilbert De Roock “was breaking ground”.  Het Azelhof in Lier, Belgium, was transformed to a stunning VIP-setting that invited everyone for a unique selling experience. Starting at 20.000 euro the horses are top notch and everyone buying a horse gets an exclusive LeBeau-Courally watch to go with it. And that they are top horses can be seen by the first two horses getting sold. The six year old Lady Van de Haarterhoeve (Casall ASK x Clarimo ASK)  moved stables to the Family Maenhout in Aalter de 6-jarige for 130.000 euro. Next to go was the five year old Mabel de Kwakenbeek (Emerald x Quidam de Revel) that left the arena after the final bid came in at 450.000 euro. The very talented mare was bought on the phone by Carlos Lopez from Colombia. Then the auction got briefly interrupted by a horse that was on the loose. During the warming up the horse broke out and found its way into the VIP. There it trampled around and created chaos. After catching the horse and retaining the damage the auction went on. First words are that the horse is fine, however one of the visitors was taken away by ambulance. As not more is known at this moment more information will follow.
