“Take Your Pick” auction explained:
In the Hoofbid app you will find two separate listings for Horse A and Horse B
Horse A (Regular Listing in the app)

Horse B (Regular Listing in the app)
Sire, Dam, Gait, Yr foaled, Gender, Sellers Comments, racelines, and pedigree, etc.
A/B Horse Listing (Auction Listing)
This will be the listing where bids are taken in the live auction.
When the auction is done, the winning bidder will get to choose Horse A or Horse B.
Whichever horse is NOT chosen, will go back to the owners/trainers to keep for a certain time period.
Why would someone want to bid in a “Take Your Pick” auction?
The fact that the owner/trainer is willing to keep either horse to stay in their barn should give the buyer added confidence when bidding.
