Iowa Stallion Season Auction Begins On December 5


The Iowa Thoroughbred Breeders and Owners Association is conducting an online auction of seasons to more than 100 stallions from 12 states, with more stallions set to be added.

The auction begins Saturday, Dec. 5 and closes at 7 p.m. (CDT) Monday, Dec. 14.

A list of the stallions donated and details of the auction are at http://thoroughlybred.com/itboa

Proceeds from the online auction will fund three stakes races for all 2022 offspring of stallions whose seasons are sold at this auction: The 2024 Stallion Futurity and two 2025 Stallion Stakes races for 3-year-olds, one for colts and one for fillies.

A $5,000 bonus will be paid to the winner of any of the three races if the foal is conceived from a breeding season purchased at the auction.

The Iowa stallion auction is the only one in North America where the donor of the stallion season is eligible to receive a $5,000 per race bonus. This year, Castleton Lyons, Darby Dan Farm, and Hill ‘n’ Dale Farms each received $5,000 because foals by their stallions won the Iowa Stallion Futurity, Stallion Stakes and Filly Stallion Stakes.

Past recipients of the bonus include Adena Springs, Alfred Nuckols Jr, Darley, Diamond G Ranch, Hill ‘n’ Dale, Lane’s End, Margaux Farm, Madison County Thoroughbreds, Mighty Acres, Rockin’ River Ranch, Special K Stables, Swifty Farms, War Horse Place, and WinStar Farm. To date, ITBOA has paid out $120,000 to stallion farms and owners.

Stallion donations are still being accepted. Please contact the ITBOA office to donate or visit their website iowathoroughbred.com.
