The Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale will return to its originally scheduled dates of Sept. 21 and 22 following the announcement that the Goffs Orby Sale would be staged at Kildare Paddocks in Ireland rather than at Park Paddocks in Newmarket. Despite the Irish government's recent relaxation of quarantine requirements for most vaccinated visitors, the Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale will remain in Newmarket rather than return to Fairyhouse.
Simon Kerins, chief executive officer of Tattersalls Ireland, said, “We are pleased we are able to offer certainty surrounding our dates for the September Yearling Sale and confirm the sale will return to its historic dates of the third week of September. The decision to relocate the Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale was to provide clarity to our vendors while providing a vibrant marketplace and we believe that this option delivers the best chance of achieving that goal. However, we look forward to a strong September Yearling Sale returning to Ireland in 2022.
“The sale has exceeded expectations in recent years and is truly going from strength to strength in all aspects. The team at Tattersalls Ireland have worked hard this year to secure a better quality yearling and we look forward to releasing what looks to be one of our best catalogues ever assembled.”
Lotting and boxing for the September Yearling Sale is now underway, with 500 yearlings catalogued for Part I of the sale and just over 100 for Part II.
