[RC] Arabs going to Auction - Scottsville, VA - RavenFor any Arabian Horse lovers in VA. From: sandra church [mailto:minihoss@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, February 26, 2006 1:53 PM Hi-at the PRA meeting last night, a member told us about an Arabian farm in Scottsville, Va. being sold, the owner has moved & has left 9 nicely bred young Arabians there. Instead of advertising them, they're going straight to the Front Royal auction this Sat., Mar. 4. According to Nan, the owner would take almost any offer for the horses. We decided to send this info to PRA members because someone may know someone looking for an Arab and unfortunately, many horses are bought for meat at these auctions. In the USDA report last month, "loose" horses (those not of serviceable age for riding & sold for meat) sold at prices starting at $390 at the nearby Marshall auction. Here is Nan's emailed message about these Arabs: here is the information I have; Contact Wes Bowen at Hidden Hills Arabians 434-981-2634 for information on these horses, available BEST OFFER. They are going to the sale in Front Royal on this Saturday. All are purebred registered Arabs, most Sweepstakes nominated. Mostly young ones,fillies, 2 geldings, one colt. All are halter broke and lead, used tostalls though turned out daily. Seemed very gentle when I walked out inthe field with them. They came up to us and let us pet them so have beenhandled.Nan =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
