BELGIAN COLTS SOLD “ELIGIBLE TO REGISTER” Due to concern expressed over Belgian colts being sold through auctions as “eligible to register” and the diffi culty of the buyer to obtain completed paper- work after the sale, the Mid-Ohio Draft Horse Sale has issued the following statement: That anyone consigning an animal to an auction as “eligible to register” furnish the auction with the completed registration and transfer applications prior to the sale and that any consignor not doing so have their animal sold as a grade.
