December Online Auction

PotentialAsset_1“The 2014 December Online Auction, showed a strong market for quality Halter and Pleasure breeding stock,” according to Mike Jennings of Professional Horse Services, LLC.  “The increase in prices through this year indicates a turn-around in the market for good horses.”

 

Potential Asset was a close second for the highest selling horse in the sale.  Steve Heckaman sold the AQHA High Point Performance Halter Stallion, Superior Western Riding and top Western Pleasure stallion for a negotiated price of $19,000 to Scott and Sandy Hilbert of Abbottstown, Pennsylvania.  The Hilberts will be standing Potential Asset to the public in 2015.  Watch for information about their introductory breeding fee of $850, with consideration to proven mares.  Contact Scott at 717-497-4800 for more information.
