Something for everyone at the Goffs UK September HIT Sale

Gigginstown House Stud's annual dispersal of high-class talent highlights a Goffs UK sale on Wednesday which appears to have something for everyone, with horses ranging from Grade 1-winning chasers to four-year-old National Hunt prospects and two-year-old Flat runners.

Michael O'Leary's draft over the years has proved popular and this year's will include Grade 1 Top Novices' Hurdle winner Felix Desjy (47), also a Grade 2-winning chaser, Troytown Chase scorer Tout Est Permis (52) and Grade 1-winning novice chasers Hardline (96) and Battleoverdoyen (99).

The popular Notebook (49), a former winner of the Irish Arkle, is another who will come under the hammer.

A draft offered by the late Trevor Hemmings' Gleadhill House Stud includes eight broken-in four-year-olds by sires such as Scorpion, Court Cave and Champs Elysees.

Among them is a Champs Elysees gelding (108) out of a King's Theatre half-sister to Grade 1-winning hurdler Dedigout and a Court Cave half-sister (63) to Listed-winning performer Mischievous Milly.

Flat trainers such as David O'Meara and Roger Varian are also among the consignors, with the former offering three lots including multiple-winning Kingman gelding Morty (14), successful in two of his three last starts, while Varian's sole lot is Mission Storm (19), a four-time raced daughter of Exceed And Excel from the family of Nell Gwyn winner and Queen Mary second Myself.

The Closutton Stables consignment from Willie Mullins is down to two after the withdrawals of Foveros and Old Bill Barley.

The two remaining who will be offered by Ireland's champion jumps trainer are Mr Coldstone (83), a winning hurdler and a Tamayuz half-brother to Flat black-type winners Live Concert and Charleston Lady; and Ganapathi (84), a four-time winner under rules in the silks of the Donnellys.

The sale commences at 10am. Registration for live internet bidding must be approved by Goffs UK and can be done here.
