SOME of the first four-year-old point-to-point winners of the year are among the 33 horses already entered for next Friday afternoon’s Tattersalls Cheltenham February Sale.
Last year’s February Sale was a cracker. Among the top lots were future Grade 1 winner Jango Baie, the still-unbeaten Mt Fugi Park, and the high class Jingko Blue - all Cheltenham Festival fancies this season.
Previous editions of the sale have thrown up Grade 1 winners Envoi Allen, Ferny Hollow, Brandy Love and Asterion Forlonge. Recent Grade 2 novice chase winner Colonel Harry and Thyestes Chase winner Ain’t That A Shame are other February Sale graduates.
A limited number of entries will be taken after this weekend’s racing.
