Commenting on the 2025 Tattersalls Autumn Horses in Training & Yearling Sale catalogue, Tattersalls Chairman Edmond Mahony said: “The Tattersalls Autumn Horses in Training Sale has a remarkable record of producing winners at the highest level, with purchases winning no less than 168 Group/Listed races since 2022. Leading the way is last year’s record-breaking 1,300,000 guineas sale-topper SIR DELIUS who won the Group 1 Underwood Stakes, and PONIROS, who won the Grade 1 Triumph Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival. That continued success is the key to the sale’s enduring appeal and this year’s catalogue looks set to cater to the usual diverse cross-section of domestic and international buyers, both Flat and National Hunt.”
