Galileo colt brings high price at second Goffs session
A colt by Galileo topped the second day of Goffs February Sale on Tuesday when selling to BBA Ireland for €205,000 -- eclipsing the
top prince for a weanling at last year's sale by €60,000.
Out of the winning River Fairy (Irish River [Fr]), the Rangefield Bloodstock-consigned
youngster went through the ring as Lot No. 308. Multiple Grade 2 winner Fairy
Garden (Lyphard) is the colt's second dam.
Among the many quality lots with no shortage of buyer interest was Lot 368, a
Refuse to Bend (Ire) colt from Jockey Hall Stud who sold for
€110,000. The yearling is out of the Indian
Ridge mare Swingsky, a full sister to French stakes-winner Indianski, and was
purchased by Wessex Bloodstock.
The sale continues Wednesday with weanlings, yearlings and breeding stock. Full results can be seen at goffs.com.
