Goffs Rebounds With November Sale

The Goffs November Breeding Stock Sale ended on Saturday with results way ahead of last year.

Sales over the last two days reached almost €7 million which was a 38 percent increase on 2010.

The average of €26,250 represented a 62 percent increase while the median of €10,000 was up by eleven percent. The clearance rate improved to 66 percent.

The record sale of Banimpire had a major impact on the turnover and average.

Domestic activity over the last two days was relatively subdued as a diverse international contingent of buyers played a major role.

Goffs chief executive Henry Beeby commented: "The modern day Goffs was established to sell the best Irish horses to a global audience and this week has ensured that goal was achieved in some style.

"To smash both the foal and filly/mare records in successive days is very special and, of course, we are hugely indebted to Jim Bolger for placing his faith in Goffs with his magnificent stock."
