Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 19, 2021 Journalists Share Posted May 19, 2021 Happy D'Ex (Fr) (Saddler Maker {Ire}), a 15-length winner of her career debut for owner Denis Murphy, fetched a final bid of £195,000 to top the opening session of the Goffs UK Spring HIT/P2P Sale at Doncaster. The gray filly (lot 469) was consigned by Murphy's Ballyboy Stables and was purchased by Aidan O'Ryan and Gordon Elliott. A total of 144 lots of 156 through the ring were reported as sold (92% clearance rate) for turnover of £4,580,900. The session managed to eclipse pre-pandemic numbers, with the median of £22,000 up by 52% over 2019 and breaking the previous record set in 2018. Despit the lack of a breakout horse, the average of £31,812 also managed to set a new record while representing a 14% gain over two years ago. The Goffs UK Spring HIT/P2P Sale will continue tomorrow at 10am with a full day of horses-in-training with drafts from the leading owners and trainers.
