Why should I nominate my Stallion?

Last year our Stallion Owners took home collectively $81,709.00!

By donating one Purebred and one Partbred breeding for a single annual fee of $500:

• The stallion owner retains a second auction eligible Purebred & Partbred breeding to use themselves or sell on their own.

• The stallion owner receives 20% of the auction money won by the resulting yearlings shown.
  - average paid in 2011 was $989.00 per stallion

• Your stallion is represented in the auction class by up to 4 yearlings each year you participate in the Iowa Gold Star Futurity Auction. Increasing your odds of winning auction money.

The ONLY Futurity Program that supports the Half-Arabian Division.

• Half-Arabian Yearling Auction classes are split by Stock Type and Saddle Type.

• We accept stallions of other breeds who wish to participate in the Half-Arabian side of the
 futurity

• We offer a full complement of Open Half-Arabian Halter and Performance Division classes which pay just as much as the Open Purebred classes.
