Announcing the Breeze Up entries, Goffs Chief Executive Henry Beeby said:
“The Breeze Up vendors have really embraced the London Sale by providing an outstanding group of two year olds to rival any, and I am confident that the international buyers expected to attend this year will be more than impressed by the quality on offer.
We are looking forward to announcing the complete catalogue, including Horses In Training, in the coming weeks and to welcoming guests back to the stunning Orangery at Kensington Palace for the second Goffs London Sale in association with QIPCO, the unofficial curtain raiser for a week of world class racing at Royal Ascot".
HORSES IN TRAINING ENTRIES:
The highest price at any European Horses In Training Sale in 2014 was £1.3 million for Cappella Sansevero who was purchased by Qatar Racing at the inaugural London Sale. He went on to run a close second in the Group 2 Coventry Stakes the very next day.
The opportunity to purchase a Royal Ascot runner was also taken up by Gai Waterhouse who bought Café Society for £330,000 and was placed in the Listed Wolferton Handicap. Waterhouse also purchased Pornichet for £425,000 and following last week’s Group 1 win in Australia is now a leading contender for the Cox Plate.
Applications for the Horses In Training section, for horses with and without Royal Ascot entries, will be accepted until Friday 29 May.
