IT will be music to store sale consignors’ ears that Anthony Bromley was hugely positive ahead of the Highflyer Bloodstock team’s trip to the first Irish store sale of the year, this week’s Goffs Arkle Sale.

The bloodstock agency, which is made up of David Minton, Anthony Bromley and Tessa Greatrex, finished second in the buyers’ table at last year’s sale, spending €675,000 on 14 lots.
