Tattersalls Ascot & Cheltenham
The first Ascot sales were staged at The Royal Ascot Hotel Stables in 1953 before relocating to Windsor Forest Stud in 1960. Some years later in 1977, Her Majesty the Queen opened the new Ascot Sales complex at Ascot Racecourse, which was at the time under the management of the Botterill family. In 1998, Brightwells took over the lease.
The first Cheltenham Sale was staged by Brightwells in 2004, with the new Cheltenham Sales arena built in 2009. The ever-popular Cheltenham Festival Sale, which is held after racing during the Festival in March, was first held in 2014.
Tattersalls completed its acquisition of Brightwells Ascot and Cheltenham Sales in October 2015.
Group winning graduates of Tattersalls Ascot sales include Sands Of Mali, Miss Amulet, Shadn, Liberty Beach and Steel Bull.
Tattersalls Cheltenham sales have produced a constant stream of top-level winners over jumps, such as multiple Grade 1 winners Envoi Allen, Shishkin and Monkfish.
