The Go For Gold select event horse sale in Country Wexford, Ireland (7-8 December) followed the generally strong trend seen across auctions in 2020, with solid prices exceeding last year’s sale total.
The top lot, Jackie, a four-year-old grey filly by Jack of Diamonds out of the Cruising mare Cappercullen Cruise, sold to John Ellard in the UK for €50,000 (£45,589), after attracting more than 30 bids. She was put forward by sellers Alice Martin-Jones and Jason Higgins.
Three lots sold above €40,000 (£36,463), including the top-priced three-year-old geldings Robinia (Ramiro B x Wizard King), who went to British eventer Sam Ecroyd for €47,000 and MBF Gambler, another son of the late Ramiro B, who was bought by K Wendall of the USA for €42,000.
