High-Quality Entries Feature in July Store Sale; Catalogue Now Online
The catalogue for the third and final Tattersalls Ireland Store Sale of the year, the July Store Sale is now available to view online. The sale will take place on the 24th and 25th July with 534 lots offered in total.
The July Store Sale is the final opportunity for Store purchasers to source talented, unraced National Hunt stock. Graduates of the final Store Sale of the year include the Nicky Henderson trained Shanagh Bob, a Grade 2 winner at Cheltenham last December. The son of Mahler was a €10,000 purchase in August 2021 from Caroreigh Farm by Chris O’Donovan, and is potentially a high-class recruit to the novice chase ranks this season.
Another graduate Noah and the Ark has proved himself a revelation since arriving on the US jumping scene. A 2017 Store Sale purchase, the ten-year-old landed the Grade 1 Grand National Hurdle Stakes at Far Hills last October, adding to his Grade 1 win in the Lonesome Glory Handicap Hurdle at Aqueduct the previous September.

Commenting on release of the July Store Sale catalogue, Tattersalls Ireland CEO Simon Kerins said:
“The strength of the July Store Sale catalogue grows year on year, and we have attracted a nice blend of later maturing types, combined with some well-related stores that possess strong National Hunt pedigrees. We’ve seen numerous graded winners pass through the ring at the final Store Sale in recent years, and a huge debt of gratitude is owed to our Store Sale consignors who entrust Tattersalls Ireland when it comes to selling their stock. We look forward with great anticipation to the July Store Sale, which takes place four weeks after the 50th Derby Sale.”
