Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale Remains At Park Paddocks In 2021

Tattersalls Ireland are pleased to confirm the September Yearling Sale will return to its original scheduled dates of Tuesday, Sept. 21 – Wednesday, Sept. 22 whilst remaining at Park Paddocks in Newmarket. Part II will now take place on Wednesday, the second day of the September Sale, following on immediately after Part I.

The September Yearling Sale lotting and boxing is now underway with 500 quality yearlings catalogued for Part I and just over 100 yearlings catalogued for Part II. All yearlings catalogued will be candidates for the €300,000 Tattersalls Ireland Super Auction Sales Stakes which takes place at the Curragh on Irish Champions Weekend. As well as the big pot for purchasers, the vendor of the winning horse will also drive away in an Overlander 2-stall horsebox.

Graduates of the September Yearling Sale have been excelling on the track this season with Helvic Dream winning the Group 1 Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh. A number of impressive 2 year old winners were sourced at last year's sale, most notably Hermana Estrella who claimed Group 3 victory on debut as well as Go Bears Go who was narrowly beaten at Royal Ascot but later powered home to win the Group 2 Railway Stakes at the Curragh. Beauty Inspire remains unbeaten and put in a fine effort on Saturday to win the Group 3 Anglesey Stakes for Ger Lyons and Colin Keane.

Commenting on the September Yearling Sale, Simon Kerins CEO 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 our best catalogues ever assembled.”

Tattersalls Ireland September Sale Moved To Newmarket For 2021

The 2021 Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale is to be relocated from its base in Fairyhouse to the Tattersalls U.K.-based headquarters in Newmarket.

The sale has been relocated to Tattersalls in Newmarket owing to the continued uncertainty surrounding COVID related issues in Ireland, most notably the difficulty in guaranteeing that international buyers will be able to visit Ireland without having to undergo lengthy periods of quarantine. The three-day sale will now take place a week earlier than originally scheduled, with Part I taking place on Tuesday, Sept. 14 and Wednesday, Sept. 15, and Part II taking place on Thursday, Sept. 16, reflecting a similar move that has been made after an agreement between Tattersalls and Goffs which will see the Orby Sale also taking place at the Tattersalls Park Paddocks site on the earlier than scheduled date of Sept. 24 – 26.

Commenting on the change of location for the Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale, Tattersalls Ireland CEO Simon Kerins said;

“The decision to relocate to Newmarket has not been taken lightly, especially having had to relocate the September Yearling Sale in 2020 but, given the disruption we experienced at the Derby Sale, it is now clear to us that we cannot rely on a 'bubble' which would allow overseas buyers to visit Ireland without onerous quarantine requirements. The September Yearling Sale traditionally attracts large numbers of overseas visitors and at present Britain, while also being the main source of our buyers, is considerably more accessible than Ireland.

Tattersalls is hopeful that this will be the last change to its 2021 sales calendar and have taken the decision at this early stage to provide clarity to loyal vendors prior to entries closing next week. Relocating the sale to Park Paddocks will again allow Tattersalls Ireland to achieve the constant objective of providing a vibrant market by attracting the widest and most diverse group of buyers that we possibly can.

The relocated 2020 Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale returned record-breaking figures with a top lot of £325,000 and more horses selling for £150,000 or more than ever before. Vendors have already been supporting the sale this year with their better quality stock and we look forward to another successful renewal of the Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale at Park Paddocks in Newmarket.”

All yearlings cataloged for the Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale are eligible for the €300,000 Tattersalls Ireland Super Auction Sales Stakes at The Curragh in September 2022. Vendors not wishing to sell yearlings at the relocated sale will be accommodated in the Tattersalls Ireland Flat Sale which takes place at Fairyhouse on Nov. 13 and 14.

Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale Relocated To Newmarket

The Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale will for the second consecutive year be moved from its base at Fairyhouse to Tattersalls's headquarters at Park Paddocks in Newmarket due to ongoing concerns surrounding the coronavirus pandemic in Ireland, specifically whether international buyers will be able to attend without undergoing lengthy quarantines.

The three-day sale will now take place a week earlier than originally scheduled, with Part I on Sept. 14 and 15 and Part II on Sept. 16.

Tattersalls Ireland Chief Executive Officer Simon Kerins said, “The decision to relocate to Newmarket has not been taken lightly, especially having had to relocate the September Yearling Sale in 2020 but, given the disruption we experienced at the Derby Sale, it is now clear to us that we cannot rely on a 'bubble' which would allow overseas buyers to visit Ireland without onerous quarantine requirements.

Goresbridge Breeze Up Sale Relocated to Newmarket

The Tattersalls Ireland Goresbridge Breeze Up Sale has been moved once again to the Tattersalls headquarters at Park Paddocks in Newmarket, Tattersalls Ireland announced on Monday. Ongoing COVID-19 related travel restrictions in Ireland prompted the location switch and 2021 marks the second year the sale will be held in Newmarket. The practice breeze session and breeze session proper at Newmarket Racecourse will be held on June 1 and 2, respectively, with the sale scheduled for June 3, as the racecourse is also operating as a COVID-19 vaccination centre. Originally, Goresbridge was set for May 20 (breezes) and 21 (sale) in Ireland.

In 2020, the Tattersalls Ireland Goresbridge Breeze Up Sale saw a 9% increase in average and a 22% increase in median. The sale also sported a 85% clearance rate. Haqeeqy (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}), a 2020 graduate, took the Lincoln at Doncaster for John and Thady Gosden and Her Highness Sheikha Hissa Hamdan Al Maktoum earlier this spring.

“The decision to relocate the Tattersalls Ireland Goresbridge Breeze Up Sale reflects our commitment to providing the most vibrant marketplace possible for our breeze-up vendors and we believe that this option delivers the best chance of achieving that goal,” said Tattersalls Ireland CEO Simon Kerins. “We are extremely fortunate to have the option to relocate to Europe's premier bloodstock sales venue in Tattersalls and we are very grateful to the teams at both Tattersalls and Newmarket Racecourse for again accommodating the sale.”
