Dover, DE — The Delaware Standardbred Owners Association will conduct its eighth annual stallion service auction with the proceeds going to PACE, the DSOA’s political action committee, which is an important fund that makes political contributions to candidates and politicians who support our harness racing community and issues.

There are 14 stallions in the auction with 13 Delaware and one Maryland. Thank you to the stallion owners who have graciously donated these breedings and the bidders who will use them.
