Broodmare Dispersal

Post by Danny Derby »

Looking to significantly cut down on the number of horses I'm breeding each year, and phase 1 of that plan involves selling off a good 50% of my broodmare band. Check out the auction here https://www.simhorseracing.com/auctions ... ionID=5181.

Take advantage of my laziness and desire to have less horses by any means necessary. Lots of these mares are very young with just 1 or 2 foals on the ground and outstanding pedigrees, and you can get them right now for $1 or less. Tons of stakes (or better) producers in this group as well. I just can't manage this many anymore.

Here's a handy list of mares in the auction who have Wish Upon A Star as their second dam. We're talking one of the top dirt routing families in the game, and one that I've rarely leased or sold much of before now.

All are currently going for way less than they should be.

One day left. Remember this is a sale auction so you'll OWN these mares, not just a lease for the year.

Only hours remain.

Looking over the catalog for this auction and I can't help but feel a bit of sellers remorse. There's so many bloodlines in here that I've worked on for in-game decades that I wish I could just hold on to forever but just can't manage at this level anymore.

The Wish Upon A Star bloodline was responsible for a ton of my barns success. This is the first (and only) time I'm offering so many for sale. There's far more than the four listed above - those are just the ones closest related. Tons of mares in this auction hail from that family. And it's not just her, so many other of the best broodmares in the game are represented here, be it from 8 figure Steward-auction purchases, or private deals I've made over the years.

Happen bidding! Auction closes at 1PM Pacific TIme (4PM Eastern TIme)

https://www.simhorseracing.com/horse.ph ... ID=1325775 is a 3 year old Star broodmare by Dave Matthew's Band from a family of Wish Upon A Star stakes caliber dams. I never raced her despite her being an allowance galloper just because of time constraints. Her only foal is an allowance runner from a B tier stallion.

Insanely cheap right now, and you're guaranteed to get TEN FOALS from this filly since she's only 3. That's 10 foals from a Star mare with a ridiculously nice pedigree. One of many steals in the auction with just under 3 hours remaining.
