SIX vendors are consigning two lots apiece to this year’s Goresbridge Go For Gold Sale starting with the Co Galway-based operation R.C. Equine Ltd which has entered a pair of well-performed home-bred Irish Sport Horse geldings.

The second of these, the four-year-old Milchem Giovanni (Lot 13), gave owner/breeder Ralph Conroy and stable jockey Jason Doerflinger some great days out this year. The Tyson chesnut, who is out of a Silvano mare, won his age final of the Eventing Ireland Western Region young event horse series, won a Young Eventhorse Series qualifier at Orchard Lodge, finished fifth in his final at the Dublin Horse Show and, having qualified at Millstreet, finished fourth in the Burghley Young Event Horse final.
