The Ontario Standardbred Adoption Society (OSAS), now in its 21st year, will once again be conducting a stallion auction this breeding season.

OSAS is extremely grateful to all of the stallion owners and farms that contribute these breedings and those mare owners who purchase them as this is one of the adoption society's most productive fundraisers each year.

The 2017 online auction will again take email bids. Bids are to be emailed to [email protected]. You may bid continuously or send in a maximum bid for each stallion. The 2017 auction will run from February 5 to February 10 and bidding will close at 4 p.m.

A previously announced breeding to Sir Luck has been withdrawn, and a breeding to Dali has been added.

The line up of stallions and the 2017 fees are as follows:

• Big Jim - $4,000
• Dali - $2,000
• Glidemaster - $4,000
• Holiday Road - $4,000
