This message is from: GAIL RUSSELL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Is this the same Martins that does the auction in Turlock? I gather there is a Martin Auctioneers, Inc, and a Martin Bros. Can anyone sort out which Martins are which? I wasn't overly impressed with the one in Turlock. I was told by a respected dealer/breeder that many of the horses were rejects that could not be sold by the auction owner/operators in usual channels, which meant that fewer people with decent horses brought them there. (Saw more than one horse there that bit viciously at anyone who passed) A LOT of the harness was the cheap stuff they sell on Ebay - NOT SAFE to use other than for ground driving!
If you do go, beware of the cheap harness.
