ROUNDING off the sale’s year on a high note, a son of I’m Special de Muze headed the final renewal at Goresbridge at €13,200. Vincent Murphy’s three-year-old was the standout lot in a sale that delivered several credible returns together with an improved clearance of 71% (65% in 2017). Despite the bitterly cold weather, Friday’s sport horse fixture was well supported by both home and overseas customers, while Saturday’s bi-monthly sale saw a lively trade in foals, and a top price of €6,000.
