GSW and G1SP Lone Eagle (Galileo {Ire}–Modernstone {GB}, by Duke of Marmalade {Ire}) brought top price of £300,000 on Goffs Online Tuesday. The 4-year-old colt, offered by his trainers Freddie and Martyn Meade, was secured by Ballylinch Stud to dissolve a partnership. Victorious in Newmarker's G3 Zetland S. at two, he added a score in the Listed Cocked Hat S. the following season, in addition to finishing second in the G1 Irish Derby.
“The Goffs Online service has had a strong year and this is another great result which shows the platform's ability to be ready to host sales of high-profile bloodstock whenever clients need it,” said Goffs Group Chief Executive Henry. “We have reserved the use of our Goffs Online timed sales for high-end horses and breeding rights and with Lone Eagle's £300,000 result, following the mares Queen Of The Stage and Quilita selling for £340,000 and €205,000 respectively this year, it clearly demonstrates its ability to cater for elite bloodstock whilst our superb Online team led by Michael Hardy in Goffs and Michael Orton in the UK stand ready to assist sellers at a moment's notice.
