A total of 28 entries have been confirmed and are now online for Thursday’s Goffs Aintree Sale which will be held after racing at the iconic Randox Grand National Festival.
The Aintree Sale, which will be held in the winners’ enclosure following the final race on Thursday’s card, the Goffs Gr.2 Nickel Coin Mares’ Bumper, has become a proven source of racecourse talent having produced a remarkable five Grade 1 winners from its first five sales, including Grade 1 winners at the Cheltenham and Grand National Festivals.
