The Stallion Season Sale to benefit Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund begins on Starquine.com Wednesday, Jan.16th at 8:00 p.m. and ends Friday, Jan.18th at 8:05 p.m.
All proceeds from the fourth annual Jockeys and Jeans sale of non-guaranteed, donated stallions go to PDJF, which makes monthly payments of $1,000 to 60 catastrophically injured former jockeys.
“Our sale is the only one in the entire racing industry whose entire proceeds goes to help humans; namely those Jockeys who have given so much of their lives beneath the horses we all know and love,” said Jockeys and Jeans President Barry Pearl. “These brave men and women are no longer riding horses but wheelchairs.”

They include: Shackleford, (Darby Dan Farm), Mucho Macho Man (Adena Springs), Army Mule (Hill 'n' Dale Farm), First Dude (Double Diamond Farms), Alternation (Pin Oak Stud), Upstart (Airdrie Stud), Wicked Strong (Spendthrift Farm), Trappe Shot (Claiborne Farms), Gio Ponti (Castleton Lyons), and some 40 others.
