For Equine Management students at Delaware Valley University, the yearling sale circuit offers invaluable industry experience. According to Jenna Reigle, manager of the Breeding Center, "the horses play a dual role because they are teaching animals."
The students learn with them, go through the sale, and go on to have a racing future.
Starting November 3, students will apply classroom and barn lessons in a practical setting at the 2025 Standardbred Horse Sales Company's yearling auction in Harrisburg, PA. As Reigle noted, "Our students are essentially in the barn from day one."
