Last night’s flash sale at Solo Select wrapped up with a 100% sale rate, confirming once again that demand for top-tier genetics delivered in this format is stronger than ever. The highest sellers featured frozen embryos by Shining Spark, Woody Be Tuff, and Playgun, continuing a strong trend of competitive bidding and immediate results.
These sales are also highly exclusive—and that’s by design.
“We get calls every single day from people wanting to sell frozen embryos and foals-in-utero in our sales,” Smith said. “But these opportunities are only available to those who breed here and use our recipient mares. We want to work with the people who work with us. We have a relationship with them. We understand the product we’re representing, and that’s what makes it successful. These aren’t just transactions—they’re built on trust and quality control.”

More than just a quick sale, this format delivers on both sides of the equation. Many buyers are already scheduling recipient mare services through Select Reproduction, ensuring their embryos are implanted within days. That means 2026 foals are in motion—many of which will be big additions to competitive programs across the country.
“The frozen embryo opportunities have been exceptionally successful for our buyers and sellers,” said Melanie Smith. “It allows our mare owners to get additional foals in great hands so their mares have continued chances at adding to their produce record, and it gives our buyers arguably THE most affordable way to get world-class genetics—instant gratification built into their program. Most of these embryos will end up being put into recips this week, and many of our buyers will have several 2026 foals coming that really elevate their programs. We love this format. It’s a win-win for our buyers and sellers.”
Solo Select’s flash sales have been a consistent hit this spring—each one selling out entirely and drawing in a highly engaged buying audience. With the barns full of donor mares and recipient mares, this format offers a creative and efficient solution while traditional sales are temporarily limited due to space. It allows Solo Select to keep momentum rolling while continuing to connect breeders, mare owners, and serious buyers with ready-to-go options.
