MTA Begins Stallion Auction on January 3

SHAKOPEE, MN – The Minnesota Thoroughbred Association (MTA) will conduct its 2021 Stallion Season Auction January 3 through January 10, featuring more than 50 premier stallions from Kentucky, Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, and Minnesota. The on-line auction will be hosted at www.thoroughlybred.com

A $1,000 incentive is being offered again for this year’s auction from the Minnesota Breeders’ Fund. Any breeder who purchases a stallion season through the 2022 MTA Stallion Season Auction and foals in Minnesota, will receive a $1,000 check when the foal is registered with the Minnesota Racing Commission in 2023. 

“As we look forward to 2022, organizers at the Minnesota Thoroughbred Association are excited to provide breeders with these premier stallion seasons to bid on. Our partner stallion farms have been wonderful to work with and we encouragebreeders to support these farms that help support regional programs like ours,” said Kay King, Executive Director of the MTA.

Bids will be placed on a rolling basis for all seven days of the sale which begins on January 3rd. Stallion seasons can be searched by state or name on the website. New stallion seasons may continue to be added through the duration of the sale.
