Commenting on the publication of the December National Hunt Sale catalogue, Goffs Group Chief Executive Henry Beeby said:

“Buyers are in for a real treat this December as we have compiled an unmissable collection of National Hunt stock headed by our strongest ever lineup of foals along with some of the most exciting National Hunt mares on offer anywhere this year.

We’re all set for a fitting finale to another vibrant year of National Hunt sales at Goffs and are very grateful to our vendors who increasingly choose to send their best foals and mares to Goffs which has led to another increase in catalogue size.  It is a wonderful endorsement of the Goffs service and of the faith in our National Hunt team led by Gerry Hogan, Neil Walsh, Peter Molony and Kevin Ross”.
