August Sale Inspections Begin Today

Media Release - Thursday August 24

On-site inspections for Friday's August Thoroughbred Sale begin at 9am today, Thursday August 24.

In total, 224 Lots have been catalogued for the mixed sale including a number of outstanding Lots on account of Godolphin, Swettenham Stud and Greendale Trust.

Among the Greendale Trust offering are yearlings by Puissance de Lune, The Factor and Uncle Mo, while mares in foal to the likes of Toronado, Nostradamus, Reset, Reward For Effort and Unencumbered are sure to create strong demand throughout the broodmare session.

The Godolphin assignment of 33 Lots, highlighted by a number of well-bred fillies, offers buyers a unique opportunity to purchase quality bloodstock.

And the Swettenham Stud draft of mares is also expected to be keenly sought after, given the black-type pedigrees and pregnancies to high-profile stallions.
