Stallion Service Auction Procedures

Each donated breeding will be offered for sale online http://losalamitosrtcaauction.com.  If a stallion stands at Private Treaty or is syndicated, an “established” breeding fee will be determined. In order for a bid to be considered, it must be at least fifty percent (50%) of the advertised or established breeding fee. Any breeding not sold when initial bidding closes on January 23, 2024 at 3:00 pm (Pacific) will be offered on a first‐come, first‐serve basis 50% of the advertised breeding fee or the minimum bid specified for the online auction. At its discretion, Los Alamitos RTCA may accept bids at less than 50% for stallions after January 23, 2024 and prior to February 7, 2024 unless agreed otherwise with stallion donor. Donated breedings will be offered until sold or February 7, 2024.

Breedings are for the 2024 season only. Any carryover to a future year is at the sole discretion of the stallion owner. Limited live foal policy will apply unless otherwise indicated in conditions. As these are donated and promotional breedings, there is no guarantee of a “live foal”. The term live foal” means that the foal resulting from the breedings stands alone, nurses, and lives for 24 hours. Should the mare not produce a “live foal”, the stallion owner will grant the right to the mare owner to rebreed the mare ONLY as long as the stallion is standing at the ranch advertised in this catalog, and is still living. If the stallion moves to another ranch, or if the stallion dies prior to the next breeding season, the ranch listed in this catalog and the stallion owner will have no further responsibility, nor will monies be refunded.
