RUNNING in conjunction with next week’s international horse trials, and staged during a Gala Dinner on Thursday evening, is a select event horse sale, hosted jointly by Tattersalls and Goresbridge sales. This is the second renewal of this amalgamated fixture, which was originally founded by Goresbridge and first held in Co Kilkenny in 2016.

The intentionally concentrated catalogue of just 16 lots, was whittled down from a much larger pool, and chosen by the multi-medal-winning British event rider Karen Dixon, together with Go For Gold selector Sally Parkyn.
