"This Auction allows us to shine a spotlight on our breeding, our collection of horses." — Christophe Ameeuw, Founder of The Auction & owner of Les Écuries d'Ecaussinnes
 
A TERROIR, A SIGNATURE
Like a great vineyard that draws its uniqueness from its land, Les Écuries d'Ecaussinnes have spent years cultivating a precise vision of the sport horse. Here, there is no mass production. Every horse born on this estate is shaped by the same ground, the same hands, the same exacting standards — the standards that produced Utamaro d'Ecaussinnes Z, winner of multiple 5* Grand Prix, World Cup legs and Nations Cups, Venezia d'Ecaussinnes, a 5* performer under French rider Thierry Rozier, and Marthe d'Ecaussinnes and Noémie d'Ecaussinnes, both 7 years old, who are already making their mark on the international scene.
 
 
THE COLLECTION
For this Live Auction Night on June 6 at Les Écuries d'Ecaussinnes, The Auction presents 12 exceptional lots: 100% showjumping sport horses, from the finest bloodlines — Grandorado TN, Eldorado van de Zeshoek, Mylord Carthago and Le Coultre de Muze.
 
Among the 12 live lots, a few highlights:
Ophélie d'Ecaussinnes | Daughter of Bamako de Muze, himself by the legendary Darco, whose descendants rank among the most decorated in contemporary showjumping. An exceptional bloodline — and a horse that lives up to it: "She's incredible, she has so much heart, and she gets better as she goes. Suitable for an amateur or junior, but with a potential that goes far beyond."
 
Jackpot de Saba | Son of Delstar Mail x Versailles ii*Bose, trained by triple World Vice-Champion Patrice Delaveau. His dam is a silver medallist at the WEG in Lexington — a pedigree that speaks for itself. And on the ground, he delivers on every promise his genetics make: "The more you ask of him, the more he gives. He has this huge jump, full of heart."
 
Nicole d'Ecaussinnes | 7-year-old mare by Le Coultre de Muze, full sister to Marthe d'Ecaussinnes who is already competing at CSI3* level. Nicole carried her own foal, which explains her later start on the competitive scene. But the potential is there, intact: "So much emotion — she is very green, but she showed us everything she had today. She is just brilliant."
 
"The 7-year-olds are exceptional. They are all extremely pleasant to work with, very consistent, they love to work. They are simply future superstars." — Meg O'Mara, 5* rider
 
The young talents and free jumping lots will be available in the online auction on June 4 and 5, 2026 — stay tuned.
