Auction house announce two-day sale will now kick off on 17 November
Following the success of Thursday’s Goffs Ireland Autumn Horses In Training Sale, the auction house has announced that their Autumn Yearling Sale will take place as a live online auction from 17 – 18 November 2020 and will commence at 10am each day.
The catalogue is available online and includes a number of supplementary entries. All lots will be sold with a pre-sale clinical veterinary cert and may be subject to a clinical veterinary exam and wind test subsequent to purchase. Walking and conformation videos will be available prior to the sale on Goffs.com.
All prospective purchasers must register online at least 48 hours before the sale to allow sufficient time for registrations to be processed. Registrations will open on November 9 on GoffsOnline.com.
“We were greatly encouraged by the level of online trade at the Autumn HIT Sale, with 944 bids placed online and 56 horses selling through the Goffs Online platform and a further six by telephone bidding,” said Goffs chief executive Henry Beeby. “Whilst none of this ideal, it is a solution to the current Covid-19 restrictions in Ireland and we are grateful for the positive reaction of vendors and buyers alike who embraced the concept with huge enthusiasm.
“The Autumn Yearling Sale offers buyers serious bang for their buck, with just two examples from last year’s sale being the Group winners Laws Of Indices and Elysium who were bought for €8,000 and €15,000 respectively, and this year’s catalogue features plenty more quality and value.”
