OUR VISION

The Collection Auction was founded through the alliance of Milestone Farm and ST Stables - a partnership built on shared passion and a commitment to excellence.

Its founders, Carlos Pinto, Steve Tinti, Willemijn Poels, and Rikke Barker, bring together more than four decades of combined experience in the world of show jumping and hunters.

OUR MISSION

We played a key role in establishing online auctions

In response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, we set out to create a solution that would enable the equestrian industry to continue, even as the world came to a standstill.

With transparency at the core of our approach, we aimed to provide a secure and accessible platform where riders around the world could acquire their next horse with confidence.

From this vision, The Collection Auction was born - becoming one of the first online auctions to present a carefully curated catalogue of promising young Grand Prix prospects.
