HRBC YEARLING SALE MOVES ONLINE WITH ONGAIT.COM – OCTOBER 26, 2021

This year the HRBC Board of Directors voted on replacing a live sale with a virtual online sale for the yearlings of 2021.

Twenty-two (22) well bred BC yearlings will be auctioned off by OnGait.com. Many of the yearlings available for sale are eligible to the B.C. Breeders Stakes and other key stakes in Alberta and Ontario. 

Our normal procedure would call for a live sale, but due to COVID-19 and the most recent announcement of BC Proof of Vaccinations, it seems the board made the right decision to keep everyone safe.To view the Sale Entry List click file: Sale Entry List PDF
