The catalogue for Goffs UK's Premier Yearling Sale is now online, and will see 487 yearlings offered for sale at Doncaster Aug. 23 and 24. The sale that has produced recent stars like Group 1-winning sprinters Limato (Ire) (Tagula {Ire}) and Peniaphobia (Ire) (Dandy Man {Ire}) and G1 Investec Oaks-placed Architecture (Ire) (Zoffany {Ire}) will this year offer relations to numerous stakes winners including lot 66, an Invincible Spirit (Ire) colt out of a half-sister to champion 2-year-old filly Hooray (GB) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}); lot 121, a Dark Angel (Ire) half-sister to Group 3 winner Shermeen (Ire) (Desert Style {Ire}), the dam of Group 1-winning 2-year-old Sudirman (Henrythenavigator); lot 186, a Zoffany (Ire) colt from the family of Oasis Dream (GB) and Kingman (GB) who was a €120,000 Goffs November foal purchase; lot 284, a Helmet (Aus) half-sister to Group 3-winning and Group 1-placed juvenile Kachy (GB) (Kyllachy {GB}); lot 429, a Sea The Stars (Ire) colt out of a half-sister to stakes winner Army Of Angels (Ire) (King's Best); and lot 460, a Shamardal colt out of a half-sister to Group 3 winner African Skies (GB) (Johannesburg).
“This year's catalogue is without question one of the strongest this sale has ever offered,” said Goffs Group Chief Executive Henry Beeby. “Following the huge success of last year's sale, where records were smashed and buyers came from around the world, we really appealed to our vendors to send us their best and many have delivered.”
“The demand for places in the catalogue was unprecedented but we were tighter on our selection policy this year meaning we have a small reduction in numbers, but that has given us a sizeable increase in the number of yearlings in our Silver Sale, which is held the following day, and an exceptional catalogue of horses for the Premier Sale,” Beeby added.
