Goffs November Breeding Stock Sale - Ireland's Showcase

At the heart of the European bloodstock breeding industry, Ireland has serious pulling power with international buyers. Illustrious bloodlines, world class stud farms, unrivalled hospitality and a reputation for the best in everything thoroughbred all combining to make buying in Ireland an experience like no other.

As an industry, if we want Ireland to remain competitive and attractive to overseas investment, a thriving breeding stock sale is a key component. We know there are alternatives, and good ones too, but Goffs November already plays host to the market leading Foal Sale and our vision is to continue its development into a showcase of Ireland’s select foals, fillies and mares; creating an unmissable week for international and domestic buyers who flock to Kildare

Paddocks with fresh order books as our sale is the first on the European circuit.

Goffs November Breeding Stock Sale enjoyed phenomenally strong trade in 2022 as illustrated by some of the vendor feedback on the following pages. It continues to produce Classic and Group 1 winners year after year. We’ve also witnessed numerous gamechanging moments over the past decade topped by a European record of €6,000,000, proving that Goffs November not only offers a vibrant market for quality breeding stock but also delivers results for elite stock that competes with, and often outperforms any other sale in the world.

Goffs exists to serve the Irish breeder. Our sales, our complex, our team is catered to you. The buyers are here and they’re here to spend, but we

need to catalogue more top-class breeding stock to meet demand. Send us your best and I guarantee no team will work harder to exceed your expectations as competition makes everyone strive for better.

Our rallying call is simple: if the industry wants a world class breeding stock sale in Ireland, Goffs will provide it.

It’s up to you…

New For 2023

Ireland’s reputation as world leaders in producing thoroughbreds is undisputed. Of course, the Irish are also world leaders in hospitality and the recently opened boutique hotel The Club At Goffs is a wonderful addition to the buyer experience at Kildare Paddocks.

The hotel is a two-minute walk from the sales grounds and boasts a beautiful restaurant run by Michelin-starred chef Derry Clarke. Goffs has reserved the 50room hotel exclusively for our international buyers at the November Sale.

Another success story to come out of Kildare Paddocks
