Stallion Auction Rules

 

The stallion auction is held in conjunction with the Great Midwest Horse Show and Red River Valley International Select Sire Futurity.

The stallion owner donates 1 breeding to the futurity.  In return the stallion owner receives the free use of a steel stall on stallion avenue to display and promote his stallion (first come - first served) and 10% of any earnings from his stallion's offspring.  Click here to print the Stallion nomination form.

It is a silent progressive auction.  Bidding starts at half the stallion's advertised fee.  Minimum bid is $200.  When a stallion sells, all offspring from that breeding season are eligible for the futurity show.  If a breeding is bought during the auction, before the bids close, that mare owner receives a free nomination for the foal that results from that breeding.  The unsold stallions will still be available to buy until April 1 of that breeding season for their minimum bid.

The RRVISSF is only an agent to sell the breeding.  The contract is between the mare owner and stallion owner. Any disputes should be settled between them.  Click here to print off the Stallion Breeding Contract.

Payment schedule: 30% is due the day of the auction.  $50 is the minimum amount to be paid the day of the auction.  Remaining amount is due by February 1.  It can also be paid in full the day of the auction.

The bids open at 12:00 noon and close approximately 1/2 hour after the futurity show.  At 12:00 noon the Parade of Stallions starts.  It will run according to the order in the program book.

Any stallions not listed in the program book will go at the end.  If you do not have the stallion there you may take his offspring instead.

Death of a stallion - If a select sire dies before the mare owned by the purchaser of a donated service is bred, it is the responsibility of the owner of that select sire to abide by the terms of their normal breeding contract.  The select sire owner is defined as the individual(s) or legal agent who donated the stallion service to the RRVISS Futurity.  The Futurity is only an agent between the stallion owner and mare owner.

Stallion owner gets a FREE Foal Nomination if his stallion is in the RRVSS Futurity and it sells.  The breeding must be used the following breeding season.
