The Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale is now set to take place over two days in Newmarket between September 21 and 22.

It had initially been transferred from Fairyhouse to run over three days but the Part II session has been integrated into the second day's trade.

Tattersalls Ireland reports that the rest of its sales programme for 2020 will be staged in Ireland and that any yearling vendor not wishing to sell in Newmarket will be accommodated in the new yearling section at the Tattersalls Ireland Flat Foal and Breeding Stock Sale on November 13.

Tattersalls Ireland CEO Matt Mitchell said: "Following the decision to move the September Yearling Sale to Tattersalls Park Paddocks in Newmarket and as a result of the feedback from vendors, the two-day format for the September Yearling Sale and Part II can now be confirmed.

"By having the sale over two days, we believe we will be able to provide the best marketplace possible. The introduction of a new yearling section to the November Flat Foal & Breeding Stock Sale has given vendors a viable alternative in respect of where they wish to sell their yearlings."
