Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 19, 2018 Journalists Share Posted April 19, 2018 Thatsy (Fr) (Martaline {GB}) (lot 15) topped the single-session Tattersalls Ireland Cheltenham April Sale, selling for £130,000 to Aidan O’Ryan and Gordon Elliott. A winner of a Mar. 11 point-to-point, the Monbeg Stables offering was second in another point-to-point on Mar. 31. The 4-year-old grey was one of 25 lots to find a new home on Thursday, as the sale grossed £1,265,600.
