Goffs will stage a new Point-to-Point Sale on Thursday 12 February, immediately following Europe’s longest established February Sale.

The sale will be held at Kildare Paddocks, where there is capacity to catalogue a greater number of point-to-pointers than at Goffs’ boutique auctions. The location and facilities will maximise convenience for vendors, while a ready-made audience of buyers will already be in attendance for the February Sale which takes place on 11 and 12 February.

A standalone catalogue will be published closer to the sale, with entries remaining open until 9 February to accommodate runners from the Point-to-Point season’s first two weekends of four-year-old maiden races.

Announcing details of the new sale, Goffs Group Chief Executive Henry Beeby said:

“The new Point-to-Point session at Goffs February Sale follows feedback from a number of significant vendors keen to see an additional Point-to-Point Sale in Ireland. From a vendor, buyer and logistical perspective, the February Sale is the ideal time and place.

Our boutique sales at Punchestown, Aintree and Newbury, alongside the Doncaster Spring Sale, have produced recent top prices of €450,000, £305,000, £370,000 and £400,000 respectively for point-to-pointers.  We are confident that this new sale will provide an equally vibrant platform for vendors to offer horses of quality with Goffs.”

The Goffs February Sale sold nine of the ten top-priced Flat and National Hunt weanlings at any Irish or UK midwinter sale in 2025, as well as the majority of top-priced breeding stock.  Entries can be made online at Goffs.com.
