UC Davis students bred, delivered and trained the horses and mules that are set to go on sale June 24 during the 14th annual Horse Production Sale.

The sale animals — seven yearlings, four weanlings about 6 months old and three young mules — can be viewed from 3 to 5 p.m. A barbecue is scheduled from 4 to 6 p.m., and the auction is set to

start at 6. Location is the Animal Science Horse Barn on La Rue Road

"Most buyers come with an interest in our quarterhorse babies and mules, but one of the highlights of this year's sale will be a big, flashy Selle Francais colt named Triscuit," said animal science professor Jan Roser, who is coordinating the sale with horse barn manager Nicole Webster.

The Selle Francais is a strong, elegant French sporting breed that excels at jumping and is often used in dressage and eventing competitions.

Organizers said proceeds from the sale, which traditionally brings in $20,000 to $30,000, will support the animal science department's Equine Management Program.
