Parknasilla Hotel Goffs Millions Set For Eve Of Sale The Parknasilla Hotel Goffs Millions will take place at The Curragh on the eve of the Goffs Million Sale, Sunday 28th September 2008. Entries for the races, which will run alongside the Beresford Stakes, now close on Wednesday, February 6th. A list of eligible horses is available on the Goffs website www.goffs.com and race entry details will be published in this week's Irish and UK Racing Calendars. Commenting at the announcement of the date, Goffs Group Chief Executive Henry Beeby said: 'This date is perfect as everyone involved in the fantastic Million experience will be in town and can come straight from the Million Day at the Curragh to the Million Sale at Goffs to chase the following year's dream. The revised building programme at the Curragh posed several options for us which have been fully explored. The team at Goffs is 100% committed to growing and developing the Goffs Million concept year on year, and we firmly believe this is the best possible date for our valued vendors and purchasers. The Goffs Million sale and races boast the World's Richest Sales Race Incentive and by staging the races and sale closer together, we believe we can create a truly spectacular event and maximize the impact of the Million races on the sales results themselves. It is a format which has proven successful around the world and we feel it will improve the 'Million Experience' for everyone involved - the owners, vendors, purchasers and racegoers'. The Parknasilla Hotel Goffs Millions are two races, one for fillies and one for colts and geldings, exclusively for graduates of last year's Goffs Million Yearling Sale. Each race is worth an incredible ?1,000,000 to the winner, with a combined total prize fund of ?3,200,000. A further million can be won by each winner should they go on to victory in the Irish 2000 or 1000 Guineas in 2009, making the total available prize fund an unrivalled ?5,200,000. European Champion Juvenile New Approach and Dual Guineas winner Finsceal Beo are both graduates of the Million Sale, and previous winners of the Million races include Group 1 winner Miss Beatrix, and the very impressive Luck Money and Lush Lashes.
