Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 9, 2024 Journalists Posted July 9, 2024 A total of 206 lots have been catalogued for the Goffs Summer Sale, formerly the August Sale, which will be held at Doncaster on Monday, July 22. Offering 142 horses-in-training and pointers, along with 58 stores and a selection of breeding stock, the Summer Sale catalogue is headed by the Chris Giles Dispersal which numbers 11 lots. They include Rubaud (Fr) (Air Chief Marshal {Ire}) (lot 65), a multiple Grade 2 winner over hurdles, Regent's Stroll (Ire) (Walk In The Park {Ire}) (lot 67), unbeaten in two starts in bumpers last season, and the Cheltenham Festival scorer Stay Away Fay (Ire) (Shantou) (lot 72). Stay Away Fay, who struck in the 2023 Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle, is not the only Grade 1 winner set to go under the hammer as he is joined by the Prix Jacques de Vienne heroine July Flower (Fr) (Pastorius {Ger}) (lot 96), one of three French-trained entries from owner Caolan Woods. Tim Kent, Goffs UK managing director, said, “This year's Summer Sale certainly shapes as a strong edition featuring the Chris Giles Dispersal among a strong catalogue. The winner of over 20 Group and Grade 1 races, Chris has a proven track record at the top of the sport and he is offering some very exciting horses, headed by the unbeaten Regent's Stroll. “The inclusion of three French trained entries from Caolan Woods, including the Grade 1 winning-mare July Flower, adds depth to the catalogue and she is certainly another that will command plenty of attention in Doncaster. We also have a lot of pointers and stores so there are plenty of young horses on offer alongside a good number of horses-in-training. We are taking supplementary entries and they will remain open up until the time of the sale.” The full catalogue for the Goffs Summer Sale can be viewed here.
