Besides the extensive sporting programme, The London International Horse Show was also the setting last weekend for the second edition of the Brilliance Horse Auction, an exclusive auction of young show jumpers organised by Shane Breen, William Funnell and Roger McCrea.
One of the gems in the collection was the 7-year-old stallion Drive Me Crazy Z, a son of Dominator 2000 Z and Aerobic from the Damian Ostrega stud farm. Drive Me Crazy Z already shone on the international stage this year under the saddle of Irish rider Denis Lynch, who is therefore particularly enthusiastic about the Dominator 2000 Z offspring. "Drive Me Crazy is perhaps one of the most rideable young horses I have ever worked with. He has an incredible brain and is always willing to learn. He has excellent technique at and over his jump. He is one of the best 7-year-olds I have ridden in my career."
The qualities and potential of Drive Me Crazy Z ensured that he attracted a lot of interest and, with a sale price of £440,000, he became the auction topper of the evening!
