This soundness guarantee shall be exclusively between buyer and seller only and does not include any other persons.  Buyer understands and agrees that Royal Crown is not responsible to perform any inspection or to independently confirm or verify the soundness of Consignor’s horse.  Buyer understands and agrees that Royal Crown is unaware of the condition of Consignor’s horse, and therefore is relying solely upon representations made by Consignor regarding the condition of the horse and that the horse is sound.  All soundness guarantees do not include any time period following the sale including transportation. Buyers are encouraged to purchase equine insurance to protect their investments. Shall any soundness disputes arise; the buyer must contact the seller and settle the dispute between the two of them and Buyer agrees to indemnify, release and hold harmless Royal Crown, Matt Zancanella and Levi O’Keeffe, MM Auction Services, Colby or Codi Gines, to and from any claims, liability or damages which may be asserted by buyer of the horse on account of any breach of warranty, breach of promise or alleged misrepresentation. If the horse is determined not to have the alleged defect, the sale of said horse is valid and enforceable and purchaser assumes all costs of examination, treatment, and sale purchase price. Soundness does not guarantee pass of a check by any vet or trainer following the sale. Buyers are to ride and visit the horse before the sale giving them confidence they need to bid come sale day. If they want x-rays, they need to have them completed before the sale at their own expense.
