PHBA, Wanamaker’s Team Up For Second Annual Pennsylvania-Bred Sale

Wanamaker's is proud to host their second annual Pennsylvania-bred sale, in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Horse Breeders Association.

The sale will be a mixed sale open to Pennsylvania-bred weanlings, yearlings, and racehorses, in addition to broodmares and broodmare prospects owned by a PHBA member.

“I think the PA-bred online auction hosted by Wanamaker's is just one more added benefit to the Pennsylvania program,” said PHBA Executive Secretary Brian Sanfratello. “It gives some of our breeders the ability to sell their horses without all the costs involved in sending them to a regular sale.”

Graduates from the 2021 sale include Simmons, a racing prospect who sold for $27,500 to Leonard Supchak and has gone on to earn $30,652 since the sale. This includes a PA-bred allowance victory at Penn National in March. Union Rally, a racing/broodmare prospect from last year's sale, sold for $3,500 to Marcia Wolfe and has earned a victory and $13,440 since the sale.

“We had a great response to the PA-bred sale last year and are excited to host it again this year,” said co-founder Liza Hendriks.

The entry fee for the Pennsylvania-bred sale will be discounted to $150 and commission will remain at 5 percent. There are no commissions on RNAs through Wanamaker's.

Entries for the Pennsylvania-bred sale will close on Nov. 29 and the catalog will be released Nov. 30. Bidding will open on Dec. 4 at 8 a.m. ET, and close on Thursday, Dec. 8 at 5 p.m. ET. Subsequent listings will close in three-minute increments. For more information on the selling process, visit wanamakers.com/sell.
