Any yearling sold that goes on to win first time out in any International Federation of Horseracing Authorities (IFHA) country will receive a £5,000 Every 1's A Winner Bonus from ThoroughBid.
CEO of ThoroughBid, James Richardson, said, “We're delighted to announce the return of our Online Yearling Sale for 2024. Off the back of last year's encouraging results, in which two Royal Ascot runners were unearthed, as well as yesterday's Easterby debut winner, we are excited to see who goes through our online sales ring come November.
“It's another fantastic opportunity for people to make the most of one our bonuses, in this case the £5,000 Every 1's A Winner Bonus, which as the Easterby team can attest, offers anyone the chance land a nice prize should their purchase win first time out in any IFHA member country.
“There was a nice buzz about the sale last year, with bidding coming in from across the world, and we look forward to offering vendors the chance to sell globally without the impact of staff and travel costs.”
