Godolphin’s draft highlights a 225-strong catalogue

A Godolphin draft of seven racehorses highlights a 255-strong Inglis Digital April (Early) Online Sale, which opened for bidding on Friday afternoon.

Catalogued as lots 1-7, the Godolphin entries are three-year-old geldings with a significant scope for upside.

The draft – which includes city performed Damaged (Exceed And Excel) and Raoul (Kermadec) – will be available for inspection at Inglis Riverside from 9am next Tuesday and Wednesday April 13-14 (Barn B 49-57).

It’s the second time Godolphin has offered a draft of racehorses through the Inglis Digital platform.

“This is a draft of young, lightly raced gallopers that have definite potential for future connections,” Godolphin Managing Director Vin Cox said.

“Godolphin are very serious about offering sound racehorses to the market and we’re obviously as transparent as possible regarding the history of each horse throughout their journey with us.

“The value of offering horses on Inglis Digital is being able to tap into a broad spectrum of buyers given the platform’s established database.”
