Tattersalls Cheltenham to Stage David Maxwell Dispersal

Wait 5 sec.

Following the recent retirement of David Maxwell from race-riding, Tattersalls Cheltenham will host the complete dispersal of the leading amateur jockey and owner's racing interests at Cheltenham Racecourse on Friday, October 24.Headlining the dispersal of 17 lots is the five-year-old El Cairos (No Risk At All), who finished an eye-catching fifth in the G1 Weatherbys Champion Bumper at this year's Cheltenham Festival, plus the six-year-old Queensbury Boy (Doyen), a dual winner as a novice hurdler when he also finished fifth in the G1 Champion Novice Hurdle at the Punchestown Festival.“I have been fortunate to enjoy many unforgettable days in the saddle, particularly at Cheltenham, and I am immensely proud of the string of horses we are offering,” said Maxwell. “With several genuine Cheltenham Festival prospects among them, I hope they will bring their new owners the same excitement and success they have given me. I am grateful to Tattersalls Cheltenham for staging this dispersal at the Showcase Meeting, which provides a fitting conclusion to my riding career and the perfect stage for the next chapter in these horses' journeys.”Shirley Anderson-Jolag, Tattersalls Cheltenham sales manager, added, “We are honoured that David has chosen Tattersalls Cheltenham for this dispersal. Staging the sale at the Showcase Meeting, at the home of jump racing, provides a fitting tribute to his remarkable career. With horses such as El Cairos and Queensbury Boy among the line-up, it presents buyers with a rare opportunity to secure outstanding prospects for the major jumps festivals ahead.”All lots will be stabled in the Charles Turner Yard and available for inspection from Thursday, October 23.
