Nearly 80 Head Consigned to Indiana Fall Mixed Sale, Catalog Now Online

The Indiana Thoroughbred Owner's and Breeder's Association is pleased to announce that the catalog for the ITOBA Fall Mixed Sale is now online with a total of 79 head, including 64 yearlings, one weanling, nine horses of racing age and five broodmares, all in foal.

Normally held at Indiana Grand Racing and Casino, this auction instead will be conducted at the nearby Smith Training Stables located at 8296 N. Michigan Road in Fountaintown, Ind. The sale is set for Oct. 31 at 1 p.m. and it will be run by Duane Swingley Auctioneers.

The majority of racing stock in the sale are Indiana-breds, with many also being Indiana-sired, making them eligible for the lucrative Indiana Thoroughbred Breed Development Program. Many leading Indiana stallions are represented, as well as top regional and national sires.

ITOBA has partnered with American Racehorse magazine to help promote the sale on social media, and in the coming weeks each hip will be individually profiled, with photos included when available. Updates will be posted on ITOBA's Facebook page and Twitter feed at @IndianaTOBA.

“We are very pleased with the quality of this catalog, and we think it offers something for just about anyone looking to breed or race in Indiana,” said ITOBA President Bruce Murphy. “There are so many opportunities for Indiana-bred and Indiana-sired horses at all levels, plus many in this sale are also eligible to be nominated to the ITOBA Stallion Season Auction Stakes.”

Jockey Club Live Foal Report Shows Declines in Foals Born, Active Stallions

The Jockey Club today reported that 1,552 stallions covered 31,198 mares in North America during 2019, according to statistics compiled through Sept. 29, 2020. These breedings have resulted in 19,677 live foals of 2020 being reported to The Jockey Club on Live Foal Reports.

The Jockey Club estimates that the number of live foals reported so far is approximately 85-90 percent complete. The reporting of live foals of 2020 is down 3.4 percent from last year at this time when The Jockey Club had received reports for 20,363 live foals of 2019.

In addition to the 19,677 live foals of 2020 reported through Sept. 29, The Jockey Club also received 2,476 No Foal Reports for the 2020 foaling season. Ultimately, the 2020 registered foal crop is projected to reach 20,500.

The number of stallions declined 4.8 percent from the 1,630 reported for 2018 at this time last year, while the number of mares bred declined 4.0 percent from the 32,508 reported for 2018.

The 2019 breeding statistics are available alphabetically by stallion name through the Resources – Fact Book link on The Jockey Club homepage at jockeyclub.com.

Kentucky annually leads all states and provinces in terms of Thoroughbred breeding activity. Kentucky-based stallions accounted for 55.3 percent of the mares reported bred in North America in 2019 and 60.2 percent of the live foals reported for 2020.

The 17,240 mares reported bred to 228 Kentucky stallions in 2019 have produced 11,851 live foals, a 2.9 percent decrease on the 12,200 Kentucky-sired live foals of 2019 reported at this time last year. The number of mares reported bred to Kentucky stallions in 2019 decreased 1.2 percent compared to the 17,446 reported for 2018 at this time last year.

Among the 10 states and provinces with the most mares covered in 2019, three produced more live foals in 2020 than in 2019 as reported at this time last year: Pennsylvania, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. The following table shows the top 10 states and provinces ranked by number of state/province-sired live foals of 2020 reported through Sept. 29, 2020.
