Washington State University will auction 21 horses at 11 a.m., Saturday, April 26, at Hilltop Stables. Betsy Greene, sales manager and a member of the WSU faculty, urges buyers to be present, but said absentee bids will be accepted. Eleven geldings and ten mares are being sold. All but one were donated as green horses last year for the WSU equine program. The other is a hold-over from 1995.
Horses are suitable for a variety of levels of rider experience.
Several would make competitive western mounts. Horses have also had trailer loading experience. Krista Moreshead, equine instructor, said that the class was restructured this year to provide more hands-on handling and riding experience. Greene expects special interest in three horses.
