Downbytheseaside’s book is full and closed

Delaware, OH – Diamond Creek announced Tuesday (Dec. 1) that 2017 Pacer of the Year, Downbytheseaside, has a full and closed book for 2021.  Downbytheseaside‘s book was inundated with applications after making a splash at the sales this fall.

Downbytheseaside‘s first crop of yearlings were extremely well received by the buyers this year.  At the Ohio Jug Sale, an average of more than $44,000 for 37 horses sold with 3 colts going for over $100,000.  He repeated that success again in Lexington where 26 yearlings were sold for average over $61,000, more than 10 times his initial stud fee.  Success continued at the Standardbred Horse Sale, where 10 sold for an average of $47,000 with top prices of $95,000 and $97,000.

“The yearlings looked the part and I think that people in Ohio, and outside of Ohio, are looking for this kind of horse, ” said Diamond Creek’s Adam Bowden, “The sale results show that you can’t consider him simply a regional stallion.”

Diamond Creek and the Downbytheseaside syndicate would like to sincerely thank all the breeders who supported and backed the stallion in his first year at stud.
