WHILE not as lively as in previous years, trade at the Goresbridge Supreme sale of show jumping foals, held at the Irish Breeders’ Classic last Sunday, delivered a top return of €24,000 for an embryo and, equalling the 2018 top figure, €18,000 for a foal.

Overall, however, it was a rather divided affair which, disappointingly, produced just three five figure returns from the 14 (15 catalogued) who came forward.
