Looking for great deals on seasons for your 2019 matings?  Be sure to participate in the VTA’s annual stallion season auction, held February 12th and 13th. It’s worth the wait, the VTA has the most comprehensive list of NG seasons around.

The available  stallion season list and bidding procedures will be posted soon.  Make sure to check the stallion listings frequently as the list is updated daily through February 12th.

On February 12th, the VTA will accept bids by telephone from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m EST.  NO NEW BIDS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER 8:00 P.M. Tuesday. Only the top five bidders on each stallion season will be allowed to continue bidding on seasons on Wednesday, February 13th. After the auction is completed we will publish a list of available seasons which will be posted on the website Thursday, the 14th.
