The Stallion service auction will be held annually at the Arabian Futurity Festival where members donate the service of their nominated stallion to be auctioned off to the highest bidder. The resulting foal is eligible to be shown in the Auction Futurity Class as a yearling. 50% of the total auction proceeds are paid back to the top five winners in both the yearling colt / gelding class and the yearling filly classes.

    Only 25% of the final auction bid is due on the day of the auction. The balance of the auction service is due on or before February 1 of the year the mare is to be bred. There is a 10% discount on the winning auction bid if it is paid in full on the day of the auction.

   Auction nominated mares must be bred in the year following the auction.  However, if you mare fails to settle or if the breeding does not result in a live foal , you have a Live Foal Guarantee.  The mare or a substitute may be bred the following year and be nominated for the Auction Futurity. This is a one time extension only and requires formal action and approval by the MAAB Board of Directors. A written request must be sent in by the mare owner to the futurity secretary.

Any mare that is eligable for auction nomination is also eligible for select nomination.

  • Stallion service auction fees can only be refunded in the event that the nominated stallion dies or suffers injury or infertility. 
  • All futurity entries must be shown by an amateur who has an USEF Amateur card.
  • The successful bidder must nominate the mare bred to the stallion service won at the auction no LATER thans December 31st of the breeding year.  Futurity forms are available from MAAB stallion owners and the Futurity secretary.
 

SINCE THIS A FUTURITY PROGRAM, ALL FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS MUST BE MET IN FULL AT THE STIPULATED TIME OR THE MARE OWNER LOSES ELIGIBILITY AND THE RESULTING FOAL WILL
NOT BE ALLOWED TO COMPETE IN THE FUTURITY.
