Goffs will stage a new point-to-point sale which will immediately follow on from the long established February Sale.

The auction will be held at Kildare Paddocks on February 12 in order to catalogue a greater number of point-to-pointers than at Goffs’ boutique auctions. The location and facilities will maximise convenience for vendors, while a ready-made audience of buyers will already be in attendance for the February Sale. 

A standalone catalogue will be published closer to the sale, with entries remaining open until February 9 to accommodate runners from the point season’s first two weekends of four-year-old maiden races.

Goffs Group chief executive Henry Beeby said: "The new point-to-point session at Goffs February Sale follows feedback from a number of significant vendors keen to see an additional point-to-point sale in Ireland. From a vendor, buyer and logistical perspective, the February Sale is the ideal time and place.

"Our boutique sales at Punchestown, Aintree and Newbury, alongside the Doncaster Spring Sale, have produced recent top prices of €450,000, £305,000, £370,000 and £400,000 respectively for point-to-pointers. We are confident this new sale will provide an equally vibrant platform for vendors to offer horses of quality with Goffs."
