Another eye-catcher: 69-inch-tall white equine

- HARPREET BAJWA @Chandigarh

IT was a jaw-dropping moment for equestrian enthusiasts and breeders when they witnessed 42-month-old David, one of the tallest horses and a direct descendant of Raj Hans stallion, at the recently concluded "Ghora-Mandi," part of the Maghi Mela in Muktsar.

What was even more surprising was its asking price: yes, you heard it right—a staggering ₹21 crore. Approximately 3,000 horses and mares participated in the mela, of which about 600 were sold.

Another attraction for the buyers was a 69-inch-tall white equine, Bilawal, a stallion of the Nukra breed. Owner Jaspal Singh from Tarkhanwala village in Muktsar was seen asking a price in crores.
