Stallion Auction

The auction is scheduled to commence on December 15th and will continue until January 15th. Bidders must register for the auction to place their bids and are required to make their payments within a 24-hour window. In the event of non-payment, the stallion breeding will be offered to the backup bidder.

Junior Stallion

A stallion holds the status of a Junior Stallion until his eldest foal reaches four years of age. Enrollment applications are open for submission at any time, and it is advisable to enroll before the actual year of enrollment to benefit from reduced foal enrollment fees. Enrollments are exclusively accepted by the current stallion owner. The annual enrollment fee remains at $1500 until the stallion’s eldest foal turns four years old. In that particular year, the annual fee increases to $2500. Applicants must include a copy of the stallion’s breed registration papers, demonstrating current ownership, along with their application.

Please note that Deep South Stallion Incentive Program LLC reserves the right to decline enrollment for any stallion. If a stallion owner chooses to remove the stallion from the program, the stallion may not be eligible for reenrollment under that same owner.

Foal Enrollment 

A horse’s age will be determined by the calendar year, commencing on January 1 of the year it was born. In the calendar year of its birth, it is considered a weanling, and in the subsequent calendar year, it becomes a yearling, regardless of the specific date of its birth within that year. For newly enrolled stallions during their first year, the introductory rate for foals will be set at $200. Following the stallion’s initial year of enrollment, your foals will be entered at the standard Fee Schedule rate.

The foal enrollment fee constitutes a one-time payment and should be mailed in with a postmark no later than December 31st, or before the foal’s participation in an approved event, to ensure that the current year’s fees are in effect.
