Printed catalogs are available in the office, though we have limited quantitiy so we ask that each party only take one. The digital catalog is available to be scanned via a QR code. Head to the yards and inspect any horses you may be interested in.  It is strongly expected that all prospective buyers conduct a thorough examination of conformation and gait, ground behavior, and thoroughly evaluate and become familiar with the horse before bidding. Grab a spot at the arena at 10 am to watch horse demonstrations. Auction starts at 1pm in the sale ring! Seating is limited and usually fills up fast, so get there early! The auction moves quickly, but don't be afraid to ask our ringmen questions as we move through the sale. Make sure you've inspected and know what you are bidding on. Once the auctioneer says sold & your buyer number, the horse is yours! Head to the sale office to pay for your horse. Horses must be paid for in full on sale day.
