THE €160,000 sale of the Group 3 runner-up Erzindjan provided the highlight of Monday’s Goffs Autumn Horses-In-Training Sale which played host to a satisfactory day’s trade that enabled the auction to post a solid set of final returns.

After taking place in an online format last year, the auction was all the better for its return to its traditional setting as it produced a turnover of just under €1.3 million, which was a 26% improvement on last year.
