THE four-day Goffs November Foal Sale predictably ended on a quieter note on Thursday but the overall results for the week were described by Goffs CEO Henry Beeby as evidence of "a sale of true strength and depth".

A clearance rate of 76% for the week was not at all bad and the turnover of €32.6 million was up 28% on last year, despite there being 40 more foals sold in 2023.
