The catalogue for the 2026 Goffs Yorton Sale, the only sale dedicated to NH 2YOs, is now online and will offer an excellent line up of 39 lots at Yorton in Wales on 10 September from 1pm.

The Yorton Sale has built a superb record since its inception in 2019 and has developed into a proven and leading outlet for NH 2YOs with outstanding results on the track and pinhooks in the ring. To date it has produced 80 individual winners and counting which are headed by two Grade 1 winners and 13 black-type horses, an impressive achievement from a boutique sale of only around 40 horses a year.

With Grade 1 winners at the Aintree and Punchestown Festivals a crowning achievement, horses such as Fire Warning are a different example of the recent success buyers have enjoyed from the sale. Purchased for just £28,000, he won in France for trainer Hugo Merienne and subsequently sold for €340,000. He then won his only UK start for his new connections, Rich and Susannah Ricci and Nicky Henderson, in January at Newbury.

The 2026 catalogue is set to offer 2YOs with exceptional pedigrees by many of the leading sires and some of the highlights include.

• Lot 1, a Blue Bresil gelding out of the Gr.1 winning mare UTOPIE DES BORDES who is a half-sister to the Gr.1 winner KOPEK DES BORDES.
• 3, a Nathaniel gelding out of the Gr.1 winning mare STORMY IRELAND.
• 6, a Pether’s Moon gelding out of the L. winning mare FANTASTIC MS FOX.

Yorton Stud owner David Futter commented:

This sale has developed into a leading outlet for NH 2YOs off the back of continued success on the track and in subsequent sale rings and the timing could not be better with the demand for 2YOs now rapidly gaining traction. We launched this sale in 2019 on the concept of getting NH horses into training earlier and to see the UK and Ireland launch new 3YO hurdle programmes, along with 2YO sessions in the major store sales, only bolsters this sale’s growing presence on the sales calendar.

We wish to thank Goffs for their support in helping to establish and grow this sale and together we look forward to offering another strong catalogue at Yorton in September.

Goffs UK Managing Director Tim Kent commented:

The Yorton Sale has rapidly moved from a sale promising success to one delivering it and is in a unique position as it launched offering NH 2YOs at a time when the concept was not fully embraced in the UK and Ireland. It has since built a reputation for success which has seen it embraced by the market and momentum is now rapidly growing for 2YOs, the very product upon which this sale was founded.

We wish to thank David Futter and the Yorton team for their continued partnership with Goffs in delivering this unique event. This year will offer a strong catalogue with some outstanding types and pedigrees on offer and shapes as one that is not to be missed.

The Goffs Yorton Sale will be held at Yorton Farm in Wales on 10 September from 1pm. For more information on the sale, please contact David Futter on +44 (0)7860 670184 or the Goffs UK team on +44 (0)1450 372222.
