Each year, LA MOTTERAYE prepares more than 100 horses for public sales. For the yearling auctions, the activity is concentrated upon Arqana’s August and October sales, but some individuals are destined for the Osarus catalogue in September or for Books 1 & 2 at Tattersalls. Mares and foals are prepared for Arqana’s December sale, and also foals for Tattersalls’ Foal Sale in November.

Each horse is unique, so an individual programme is created for each animal to arrive at optimum condition on sales day. Yearlings are turned out in paddocks every day in order to keep them relaxed during the preparation process. They are walked in-hand, exercised on the horse-walker, lunged in the ring and become accustomed to the breaking surcingle. The aim is to progressively bring them closer to the breaking-in process. Each horse is evaluated regularly in order to follow his progress and make any necessary modifications to his programme.

During its first participation at Arqana, LA MOTTERAYE has recorded impressive successes on the track, having presented, ABU SIDRA, futur winner of the Prix de Ris-Orangis (Gr3), and LEAUPARTIE, futur victor of the Prix de Psyché (Gr3) and second in the Prix de la Nonette (Gr2).

Since this incredible start on the Consignment stage, LA MOTTERAYE is regularly ranked in the top vendors rankings, for either yearlings or breeding stock sales. To illustrate this, in 2018 for example, LA MOTTERAYE was responsible for selling a son of Dubawi for 1.4 millions and few months later, a foal for 1 million.
