Bidding opens for the Jockey and Jeans Stallion Season Sale, benefitting the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund, on Tuesday Jan. 10 at 9 am ET and ends Thursday, Jan. 12 at 9 pm ET with a preview beginning Jan. 9. The sale features over 70 stallions from Kentucky, Pennsylvania, New York, California, Texas and Oklahoma and has raised over $500,000 for the PDJF to date.
“Big farm or small, we thank them all,” said Jockeys and Jeans President Barry Pearl. “There are many other valuable seasons and one for every pocketbook. And ours is the only season sale whose entire proceeds goes to those special humans; brave jockeys who gave a big part of their lives to racing.”
All funds raised by the all-volunteer group goes to the PDJF, which pays a monthly stipend of $1,000 to over 60 jockeys who suffered career-ending injuries.
Donating farms include Airdrie, Calumet, Claiborne, Darby Dan, Crestwood, Hill 'n' Dale, Spendthrift, Taylor Made, Darley, Gainesway and Walmac
