AN important feature of the Goresbridge Mixed July Sale on Friday week (July 19th), as auctioneers Michael Donohoe & Sons point out, will be a draft of 14 well-bred National Hunt horses from Brittas House Stud, part of a dispersal for the executors of the late Peter Magnier.

The auction will be held at the sales complex at Goresbridge in Co Kilkenny at 1pm. The catalogue contains 80 lots of various ages, including sons or daughters of such stallions as Acclamation, Dark Angel, Dubawi, Fame And Glory, Holy Roman Emperor, Lawman, Leading Light, Milan, Shirocco, Walk In The Park and Yeats.
