Group-winning Gustavus Weston has been added to the Goffs Champions Sale, which takes place before racing at Leopardstown a week on Saturday.

Believed by connections to be a Group 1 sprinter in the making, the Joseph Murphy-trained son of Equiano won the Group 3 Phoenix Sprint Stakes at the Curragh last month.

Earlier this season the three-year-old finished runner-up in the Group 3 Goffs Lacken Stakes at Naas, and he is billed as having the credentials to suit several international markets.

Gustavus Weston joins Zarzyni, a Group-placed two-year-old son of Siyouni from the Aga Khan, and the Joseph O’Brien-trained Group 3 winner Waitingfortheday in the line-up for the boutique sale on the first day of Irish Champions Wekeend, the final entries for which will be announced early next week.
