Goffs UK Managing Director Tim Kent commented:

“We have kept a tight rein on quality for this year’s sale and are very pleased with the catalogue. We have solid representation from the leading sires, led by large numbers by the likes of Blue Bresil and Walk In The Park, following great support from several prominent NH breeders and consignors, and we are confident this catalogue will continue the sale’s momentum which saw it set new British records last year.

“The £100,000 Spring Sale Bumper was a great success at Newbury a few weeks ago and offers a genuine and unique focus for buyers whilst it will be supported by the Bumper Bonus which provides the winning trainer with a free six-month lease of a two-stall horse box from leading manufacturer TheAult and the winning vendor a generous bespoke wine package from Charles Murphy wines. Combined with the 37 fillies that are eligible for the lucrative GBB scheme, there are plenty of incentives for buyers and we look forward to welcoming a big crowd to Doncaster in May.”
