The two-day Tattersalls Ireland August National Hunt Sale drew to a close on Friday with a lower-key Part II, which produced an aggregate of €360,750, an average of €4,244 and a median of €3,600. Sons of Milan and Flemensfirth shared top lot honours on Friday at €15,000 apiece.
“The Tattersalls Ireland August National Hunt Sale in a normal sales year would follow six weeks after the Derby Sale,” said Tattersalls Ireland Chief Executive Officer Matt Mitchell. “This is no normal year and in the space of two weeks we have had the Derby Sale, May Store Sale and August National Hunt Sale. The two-day August National Hunt Sale, with Day 1 a select day, has demonstrated that there is a demand for stores at all levels with both days having a clearance rate of 69% and 70% respectively. The May Store Sale, Derby Sale and August National Hunt Sale confirms Tattersalls Ireland’s commitment to all sectors of the store trade. We thank in particular our vendors who despite changes in sale dates remained loyal to the August catalogues. I have no doubt many purchasers will be rewarded with graded success on the racetrack.”
