Siblings to California Chrome and Quick Suzy among 186 entries for Goffs UK

A collection of 186 two-year-olds have been catalogued for the Goffs UK Breeze-Up Sale at Doncaster, an event which has established a fine record for producing Royal Ascot winners.

Six winners from the meeting have been unearthed in the last six years for an event which will take place between April 19 and 21.

They include three of the last six Norfolk Stakes winners including the 2021 hero Perfect Power, who went on to dual Group 1 glory. Cornwallis scorer Twilight Jet and unbeaten Horris Hill Stakes winner Light Infantry were other stars from last year.

Among the entries are an Accelerate half-brother to American champion California Chrome, consigned by Powerstown Stud, a Profitable brother to Queen Mary Stakes winner Quick Suzy for Oak Tree Farm, a No Nay Never colt out of the Irish 1,000 Guineas victress Yesterday (Mocklershill), a Kingman colt out of five-time Group 1 winner Alexander Goldrun (Grove Stud) and Tally-Ho Stud's Kodiac half-sister to top sprinter The Mackem Bullet.

Goffs UK managing director Tim Kent said: "This sale has enjoyed another huge 12 months with quality success after another big-race win to continue its outstanding record.

"To start with, its Royal Ascot record is, simply put, second to none. For an annual auction of fewer than 200 horses to produce, since 2016, a Prince of Wales’ Stakes winner, Listed Windsor Castle Stakes winner, Commonwealth Cup winner and three of the last six Norfolk Stakes winners, is a truly remarkable achievement and testament to the quality of the breezers presented by our loyal band of consignors.

"Furthermore, last season we saw the latest star to emerge in Perfect Power, who extended the sale’s Royal Ascot record to six winners in six years, before going on to claim two Group 1 races and take his place among the very best graduates this sale has produced in its 40-plus year history.

"Combine all that with the record figures we achieved in April last year, this sale is very much on an upward trajectory and that has not been lost on our ever professional vendors who have sent us another top-class line-up of two-year-olds."
