Some of the stallions you named are not listed on the website, e.g. Bob And John.

Could you please update the official list?

I think you are mistaken as Bob and John is definitely on the list. Some other ones include: Street Hero, War Chant, Cowboy Cal, and plenty of stallions from Oklahoma. There are some good ones from coast to coast and everywhere in between! The ITBOA is a non-profit organization and the funds from the auction support the two stakes races. Last year's auction was record-setting and this years' has the potential to be even better! Check the list again as there are many nice breed to race stallions in this auction!

I just re-checked the link you posted and Bob and John, and others you listed, are not on the list.

Bob and John is on the very last page of the stallion season category (I found it looking for War Chant)

Alternatively put "Bob and John" into the search box and it pops right up.

O even easier, click here

I really adore auctions.. I am an eBay junkie too. This auction, though, is a bit frustrating - horses marked KY are not and they are not sorted by state. .
So Run for the Roses, as fast as you can.....

Sorry you are frustrated, Madelyn. Can you point out some of the mistakes so we can possibly get them corrected? This is not our auction site, so, yes, there are some things that we would do differently if we were to design our own platform. However, thoroughlybred does a pretty good job and has a nice e-mail database letting people know about our auction. And we think the ITBOA Stallion Season Auction rocks!

Getting back to the nuts and bolts of the auction, though, there are still 6+ hours left to bid. We have some nice breed-to-race stallions: Discreet Cat, War Chant, Bob and John, Kipling, Five Star Day, Pure Prize, Street Hero, Einstein, Closing Argument, Noonmark, Double Honor, etc, etc. We have stallions from numerous states and have probably 7 of the top 10 stallions in Oklahoma; all of the top stallions from Iowa; quite a few nice ones from New Mexico, Arizona, Arkansas, etc. And we have dozens from Kentucky! Do not wait any longer and get your bids in now! What other stallion season auction gives you two (easy) opportunities at earning black-type? What other stallion auction gives the breeder and the stallion donator the opportunity to earn up to $10K in bonuses? This is one of THE best stallion season auctions in the US for the breed-to-race crowd.

If I did not have a contract for Artie Schiller, I would have tried again for Spring at Last.... only this time I won't be in Atlantic City waiting for the Cyndi Lauper concert to start while on the phone bidding...

Good luck in the last few hours! It IS a great program.

Thank you Tappiano. The auction went well, down slightly from last year. We will have a second chance auction for the seasons that did not originally sell so hopefully we can beat last year's record.
