Showjumper buys exciting prospect in young stallion at Brightwells Elite auction for £22k


  • International showjumper Derek Morton secured the top lot at Brightwells August Elite Sale held at Addington Manor EC on Saturday evening (18 August), spending £22,000 on lot 36, the three-year-old KWPN stallion Keyton (Cidane x Whitesnake) whose sire Cidane jumped up to 1.40m level.

    The total amount of money spent on the night by all the buyers amassed to just under £500,000, while the average purchase price was £14,000.

    Derek plans to compete the eye-catching 16.1hh stallion himself from his base at Beech House Stud and also use him as a commercial stallion for the stud farm in Staffordshire.

    The rider shared a post on social media, showing ‘Owen’ in his new stable at Beech House Stud.
