The sale topper at the Goffs Land Rover Sale was a son of Yeats, consigned by Rathmore Stud and sold to Martin Brassil for €185,000 \ carolinenorris.ie;
The two-day Goffs Land Rover Sale had a lot to live up to following the outstanding success of the same sale last year, especially considering the recent announcement of Gigginstown House Stud’s phased withdrawal.
This year the sale managed to set new records and showed greater consistency throughout all levels of the market, with a clearance rate of 86%. The overall average price of horses sold increased by 6% on last year and the average notably increased by 20%.
Group chief executive Henry Beeby said: “Once again we would like to pay tribute to our vendors who have supported us with so many of their best three-year-olds over the two days and thank our huge group of buyers, so many of whom travelled across from the UK.
“Their attendance was prompted by another superb season on the track for Land Rover graduates, with 10 Grade 1 winners and a sixth successive year of being the most successful store sale at the Cheltenham Festival whilst our graduates also led the way at Aintree and Punchestown.
“The competition from start to finish was a tribute to the horses supplied by our vendors and the supreme efforts of the Goffs Team working in tandem with Irish Thoroughbred Marketing.”
