Media Release - Thursday June 12

The Goffs London Sale invaiably produces some horses that find their way to Australia and this iconic opening act to Royal Ascot will be held next week.

The world class catalogue for the 2025 Goffs London Sale, held in association with Fitzwilliam Sports and Privat 3 Money, is now available online. 27 Lots are currently catalogued, with 18 set to be sold with engagements at Royal Ascot, and wild card entries will be considered between now and the sale.   

Eight new entries have been added to the catalogue in recent days, including Lily Agnes Stakes winner, Ali Shuffle who is unbeaten in three starts for Karl Burke and is set for the Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot. Bone Marra has also been added to the sale following his remarkable debut victory at Wolverhampton and is set for a tilt in either the Coventry Stakes or the Windsor Castle Stakes.

Green Storm, who finished 7th behind Lambourn in Saturday’s Betfred Derby and beaten fewer than 10-lengths, has been added to the sale and the Group 1-placed two-year-old is an intriguing entry from the Charlie Johnston stable.  

Two recent winners from the Gavin Cromwell stable have also been added to the London Sale.  Too Darn Hot filly Bonus Time was an impressive maiden winner at the Curragh and will be offered with an entry in the Jersey Stakes, while Galiway colt Mo Chroi is also catalogued following an eye-catching maiden success over 10 furlongs at Fairyhouse.
