Did anyone go to the auction at The Hand?

Just wondering if anyone went to the auction of 3 and 4 year old show jumpers last weekend?

I really wanted to go - not to buy, just to look. Wondered what sort of prices they were going for as I have a look at them the weekend before and some looked lovely - others very small and scrawny, but most had fairly decent breeding.

Didnt go but heard not many of the horses there were that great, but there were a few nice ones. Not many were sold actually in the ring, but apparently a few deals were being done outside. Was told the highest price was something like £10,900 for 3 year old if that helps!

Not as high as you might have thought then. Interesting, thanks.
