JOSEPH O’Brien’s purchase of a €160,000 Getaway three-year-old led the way on an outstanding opening session of the Goffs Land Rover Sale where records fell by the wayside.

Part I of the company’s premier National Hunt sale was reduced in size by 100 lots and it gave rise to an excellent day’s trade which made gains in all key sectors. A total of 10 six-figure transactions headlined the session and the average of €43,394 and the €38,000 median were both records for Part I of the Land Rover.
