APRIL sees the start of a busy period for Goffs. On Thursday, Goffs UK host a boutique sale after racing in the winner’s enclosure at Aintree. This is the sale that saw Samcro, now trained by Gordon Elliott and touted by many as the best bumper horse in Ireland, change hands for a record price last year.
It is a Gordon Elliott horse that looks set to get much of the attention next week as Labaik, winner of the Supreme Novices’ at Cheltenham, will be offered for sale. Despite some well-documented idiosyncrasies, he is a horse of immense talent.
