Penny Auction For Breeding to $4 Million NRHA Sire, Gunner, Will Benefit Rein In Cancer Charity:
Iconic McQuay Stables of Tioga, Texas has partnered up with Homes Helping Americans, LLC in a penny auction for a breeding to $4 million sire, Gunner, that will benefit Rein in Cancer, a non-profit organization based in Byars, Oklahoma.
National Reining Horse Association Hall of Fame inductee Tim McQuay and his wife, multiple world champion Colleen McQuay have been long-time supporters of Rein in Cancer, noted Cheryl (Magoteaux) Cody, Rein in Cancer President.
“We so appreciate their generosity in creating this fund-raiser,” Cody said. She added, “Like most of us, their lives have been impacted by cancer and they are committed to raising funds to help cancer patients.”
Colleen McQuay noted, “We appreciate what Rein in Cancer has done and is doing and feel that this is a great organization – one where your donation goes right to the people who need it the most!”
The penny auction event for the Gunner breeding is exclusive. Potential buyers purchase seats to the auction, at $50 per seat, in order to be able to bid and you can do so at http://homeshelpingamericans.com/auctions/Gunner-Stud-Service-Proceeds-from-Auction-donated-to-REIN-in-CANCER-16.
Seats are sold until 500 are sold and at that time purchasers receive an email announcing that the auction will start in 48 hours. Bidders simply log in to purchase as many bids as they wish and begin bidding!
When the auction begins, the selling price increases by only a penny each time someone bids. The lucky person who wins this auction may have only spent $50 for the seat, $40 for bids and win the Stud package for a $1,000 or so dollars – a great buy!
That would certainly be a bargain price. Colonels Smoking Gun (Gunner), a National Reining Horse Association Hall of Fame inductee, was the NRHA Futurity Reserve Champion in 1996, and tied for Reserve at the NRBC in 1998. He also went on to win the USET Reining Championship in 2001. He was immortalized as a Breyer Horse USET Special Edition model, as well.
When the McQuays purchased Gunner in 2005, he was already a world champion reining sire. Since then, he has sired NRHA Futurity and Derby Champions and soar outstanding offspring include 2009 NRHA Futurity and 2010 Derby Open Champion, Gunnatrashya. Gunner has soared to Four Million Dollar Sire status due to the overwhelming success of his progeny.
Rein in Cancer was begun 4 years ago and in 2012 began offering direct payment to cancer patients who are part of the horse industry. For information on Rein In Cancer, visit the web site at www.reinincancer.com.
