THERE is a lot of pressure on Queensland breeders at present with sale weanling and yearling prices taking a bit of a tumble and the cost of getting horses to the sale ring increasing regularly. With the breeding season just around the corner the CQTBA may be able to take some of those financial pressures off you with the launch of our 2014 Stallion Tender. The process of competing in the tender is quite a simple one and tender forms are on our website, www.cqtba.com, or can be mailed to you by calling 0427 229 033. Once you have decided on the stallion/stallions of your choice you simply make a bid for the amount you think you can win the tender for. If yours is the highest bid, and the stud is agreeable to your offer, you simply pay a 25% deposit with the balance due on a 45-day positive pregnancy test on your mare/s. We would like to take this opportunity to offer a very special thank you to all of the studs who have supported the tender this year. THE STALLIONS
