THE surge in demand for high-class point-to-pointers and National Hunt horses with smart form is expected to continue at the Goffs Punchestown Sale after racing next Thursday.

Already a couple of good bumper winners are due to be sold along with four recent point-to-point scorers. Goffs will be taking more entries at all five point-to-points this weekend while it would be no surprise if a winner on the first day of the Punchestown Festival makes a quick reappearance at Thursday’s sale.
