Swedish Warmblood Tight Junction stole the show and was the clear crowds' favourite at the 2011 Oldenburg Stallion Licensing in Vechta, Germany.

Bred by Lena Nyström and owned by Nyström, Pernilla Ström and Wilhelm Schwierking, Tight Junction is by Temptation out of Sigma (36) 28751 (by Sandro Hit out of Savoia (36) 24849 by Master out of Bordighera (36) 19249 by Maraton-Galant-Lansiär-Juan).

Tight Junction did not make it into the premium ring because he is Swedish warmblood branded, but his star appeal proved at the auction where he became the top selling horse. American former model Jamie White-Welling had the highest bid of 800,000 euro.

Tight Junction will remain in Germany to be trained by Gribbe and to stand at stud at Bockmann's.

"A couple of years ago I wanted to sell dam Sigma and had her for sale on the internet for one year, offering her for 8,000 euro," Lena Nystrom told Eurodressage. "Nobody bought her, so I decided to keep her and breed her to Temptation." Nystrom's breeding program was started by her aunt in the 1970s with the Maraton great grand dam and Lena took over several years ago.

Eurodressage writes:
"Anders Dahl has sold his Grand Prix horse Bukowski to Korea. With Olympic fever raging the Swedish warmblood gelding Bukowski sold as Olympic hopeful to Dong Seon Kim.
...
Anders trained the bay to Grand Prix level and competed him successfully at international GP level since 2009. Unfortunately, the Danish Equestrian Federation never selected him on their championship team, which left the rider very disappointed.
...
Bukowski, nicknamed Bam Bam, will continue his career under the 22-year old Dong-Seon Kim, who lives in the States and trains with Korean Jung Kyun Suh, who rode at the 1988 Olympics aboard Reiner Klimke's Pascal."

Bukowski is born 1999 by Briar out of Sunjist xx 23884 by Junius xx, bred by Erik Magnusson.
