  • IT has been a ground-breaking year all round, but last Friday (September 10th 2021) saw the strongest trade for four-year-olds ever recorded at Goresbridge. In contrast to 12 months ago, where business was good if a little inconsistent, the demand for the age group was solid from the outset and as a result, 82% (68% in 2020) changed hands at a massively increased average of €6,548 (€4,705 in 2020).
