Commenting on the publication of the November Sale catalogues, Goffs Chief Executive Henry Beeby said:

“Goffs November Sale is simply unmissable for international buyers this year.  The Wildenstein Stables Ltd Dispersal offers thoroughbred breeders from every corner of the globe a unique chance to invest in some of the most prolific and successful families in modern day racing.  We are honoured and proud to have been selected to conduct this incredible dispersal sale which is a wonderful endorsement of the Goffs service in our 150th anniversary year.

In addition we have several other outstanding drafts headed by 77 from Godolphin and the annual consignment from HH The Aga Khan Studs, which sold Hazariya, dam of dual Derby winner Harzand, here in 2014.

We have catalogued a Foal catalogue of sustained strength and depth throughout for what has become a market leading foal sale and appeals to all price ranges and levels; while the impact of the Wildenstein Dispersal on the November Breeding Stock and this sale’s proven reputation for achieving record prices in recent years has encouraged many other vendors to send their best to Goffs”.
