Running over three days, the catalogue of 420 entries reads well and, as usual, many of the lots can be viewed online prior to sale.

Performance and Connemara ponies share the opening day’s trading, with the former setting the ball rolling at 11am. This amalgamation has historically boosted the prices of the native breed, especially if they carry performance form and pedigrees. There are 30 ponies catalogued in the specialist sale, among which there are some smart riding ponies, as well as a few lots of youngstock and broodmares.
