The Goffs Champions Sale, which typically takes place in the Leopardstown parade ring prior to the start of Irish Champions Weekend but will this year be online, has been moved back with bidding now to run from Sept. 16 to 18. The decision was taken because recent heavy ground conditions at Irish meetings have affected the number of suitable sale candidates.
Nick Nugent of Goffs said, “An advantage of an online sale is its flexibility to move and adapt in order to maximise opportunities for everybody. Recent ground conditions have not been helpful but, with plenty of high-class racing in the next week and hopefully better going, the hope is that more suitable candidates will emerge.”
