Once Again Goffs and the Dubai Racing Club will conduct the Dubai Breeze-Up Sale in 2023, following the success of the inaugural sale this March.
The event will be held at Meydan during the Dubai World Cup meeting again next March and will be confined to a maximum of 69 2YO selected by the Goffs inspection team.
The first Dubai Breeze-Up Sale in association with Goffs, the only sale of its kind ever held in the Middle East, attracted a diverse range of buyers, and trade was topped by a son of Gr.1 Dubai World Cup winner Curlin that was sold by Powerstown Stud to Mohammed Al Subousi for AED2,500,000 (US$683,646).
At Ayr on Aug. 1, the sale produced its first winner, Dubai Jemila. The daughter of Dubawi was consigned by Malcolm Bastard and made AED1,400,000 ($382,841) to Yousuf Salem Saeed Saqer Al Kaabi.
Goffs was delighted to be involved in introducing a sale such as this on the eve of the world's most prestigious race and we look forward to working with the team of the Dubai Racing Club to deliver an exceptional bunch of 2YO to Dubai next year."
The 2YO will fly to Dubai and carry out quarantine prior to the sale. Nominations close on Dec. 1 and inspections will take place following the conclusion of the yearling sales season.
