Ramshorn Sport Horses February/June Futurity Raffle
-
Welcome to the first ever Ramshorn Sport Horses Futurity Raffle! I am offering an incentive to breed to five lovely stallions in hopes of making sure they qualify for Futurity contention in June. HB prizes will be awarded to five winners in February and five winners in June!
How Do You Enter The Raffle?
-Breed to one of my Futurity Stallions during the month of February. The mare you use must have an era that matches the stallion, OR have an era that is greater than the stallion.
On February 28th each foal that you own, which matches the era of their sire, counts as 1 entry in that stallion’s February prize pool.
-To enter the June prize pools, you must keep your foal until after Futurity prizes are awarded at the end of June.
On June 28th each 5 year old that you own, which matches the era of their sire, counts as 1 entry in that stallion’s June prize pool.
-It’s that easy! I don’t need any registration or official notification you want to participate. Anyone with a foal/5 year old that meets the qualifications will be automatically entered in the prize pool.
Using Straws for Breeding?
I will offer straws at HALF of the usual stud fee for these stallions if you send me a private message or post here that you are wanting to use the straws for Futurity foals.
Winners and Prizes
-Each stallion will have its own prize pool in February, and its own prize pool in June. That means there will be 10 winners in total!
-1 winner will be selected at random from each stallion’s prize pool on February 28th out of his qualified foals. Each winner will receive 10,000 HBs!
-1 winner will be selected at random from each stallion’s prize pool on June 28th out of his qualified 5 year olds. Each winner will receive 15,000 HBs!
Special Notes:
-All of these stallions will still be available for public live cover and straws at their normal breeding price with no rules or restrictions on how you use them.
-If a stallion fails to have enough foals in his prize pool to qualify for the Futurity in February or June, no prize will be awarded for his prize pool.

Giving this a quick bump. :)Ramshorn Ranch

Just wanted to make a quick note related to the changes that all foals 5 and under will count towards futurity qualification. I do still want to reward breeders who use these studs in February and keep their foals until June. That will give these stallions a better chance for the June prizes on the futurity board.
So the rules for being entered in the raffle prize pools will stay the same. Prizes for foals will be awarded this month in February, and prizes for 5 year olds will be awarded in June.
Happy breeding!Ramshorn Ranch

We can breed to higher era mares? That makes sense! The foal just has to share an era with dad, yes?
-
Yes. Per the forum post announcing the futurity, the babies have to be the same era as the stallion.
Since foals inherit the era of their lowest era parent, you can breed your stallions to a higher era mare and still result in a qualifying foal.Ramshorn Ranch

Can I have a straw for each guy? (Unlicensed ;)
-
@Walywoohoo, what do you mean about unlicensed?
I am happy to send straws, just want to make sure I understand what you’re wanting.Ramshorn Ranch

Thanks for the contest. DragonsDen will be finding some mares for your boys! :D
Edit - I'll take 2 straws from each of them. Thank you. -
@DragonsDen, your straws have been sent. Happy breeding!Ramshorn Ranch

ID# 12824Thanked by 1DragonsDen -
Hey sorry, I missed your reply. I meant a straw for each guy without licenses. I now have critter tracks and bird tracks, but those are the only ones I own. And I hadn't looked through to see if yours had licensed genes or not.
-
@Walywoohoo, none of these studs have licensed genes. So I will send you a straw for each one. They will be over shortly.Ramshorn Ranch

Got foals from all these boys locked into the futurity. One of the colts passed sba and tested SUP to sire.

Quick Update:
It looks like Pomegranate Cure, Spanish Blizzard, and Hoot Owl are all definitely qualified right now with locked foals. So they are guaranteed to have raffle prizes awarded this month AND in June.
Still looking for more babies on the ground for Thin Blue Line and Italian Man. If they get a little more support there are good odds for a lucky breeder to win big in the raffle.
Thin Blue Line has foals with stellar PTs of 12+!
Italian Man is guaranteed to sire babies that will make you swoon. Make a date with him today!

Got my Thin Blue foal! Will get the rest bred next week :x

Italian Man throws pretty foals. Half passed sba, all had pt over 10, and they were all consistent.

Has Italian Man qualified for futurity yet? I could find more mares for him if you need more foals.
-
If you're still needing some foals to qualify send me straws :) please label them with their era
-
@DragonsDen, he has more than 10 qualifying foals, but only 9 locked. I wouldn't mind having at least one more locked foal just to be sure he will be good for June. So I'll leave it up to you. If you want a few more straws from him let me know what you would like and I'll send them over, or he has plenty of live cover spots still open as well. I'm good either way.
@LookingGood, the only one I'm still needing foals for is Thin Blue Line. I sent over some straws and they should be labeled for you as well. He's Era 0 so feel free to breed him to whoever you would like, any mare will result in a qualifying foal.
Thank you, both of you!Ramshorn Ranch

Can I have 5 from Italian Man with no restrictions on what I do with the foals? I’ll pay $2500 per straw. 5554.
-
Thank you @DragonsDen.
@SummerMonarch, his no restrictions fee is 1800 HBs. So I'll send 5 over and feel free to do whatever you would like with them.Ramshorn Ranch

It's raffle day! Thank you to everyone who supported these studs.
Thin Blue Line did not have enough foals to qualify. But if he has enough foals under 5 to qualify in June, I will still be awarding a raffle prize for him in June to one of his 5 years old progeny.

Hey I know you’re not still doing the raffle, but I was wondering if you would still sell me 2 straws? One from pomegranate man and one from Italian man:)
-
@Urmommm
Yes, I can get you some straws. Both of those studs are still up for my March Futurity Incentives. That is outlined in a new post:

Do you want straws for futurity foals, or just to breed however you would like? The price is half off if you're wanting to help with their futurity standings.Ramshorn Ranch

I am pulling raffle prizes a little bit early, because I think the end of the month will be pretty busy in real life and I have a free minute today. Each of these folks are receiving 15,000 HBs.
