“The sale will also offer impressive drafts of young horses from the likes of Godolphin, Shadwell, H.H. The Aga Khan and various Point-to-Point consignors as well as proven horses from many of the UK and Ireland’s leading Flat and NH trainers so there will be plenty to offer buyers from around the world.”
