A total of 989 lots have been catalogued for the auction, which begins its four-day run on November 17.

Among the entries are six foals from the first crop of dual world champion Frankel, including a filly out of the Anglo-Irish 1,000 Guineas winner Finsceal Beo, who is responsible for Aidan O'Brien's unbeaten two-year-old Ol' Man River.

Champion sire Galileo has two representatives - a half-sister to top-notch miler Toronado and a filly out of Irish 1,000 Guineas scorer Saoire.

Other lots on offer include an Acclamation colt out of a sister to Coronation Stakes winner Balisada, a Lope De Vega half-brother to Phoenix Stakes scorer Dick Whittington and a Zebedee half-bother to this year's dual Group 2-winning juvenile Kool Kompany.

Goffs chief executive Henry Beeby said: "That Goffs will offer the most Frankel foals for sale anywhere in the world this year is a wonderful endorsement from our vendors and underlines the sustained success of our November Foal Sale in recent years.

"Irish breeders have supported Goffs with a mouth-watering selection of their best foals, resulting in a catalogue of strength, depth and diversity that will appeal to both pinhookers, who enjoyed such success at the Orby Sale this year, as well as a broad range of international purchasers looking to secure some of Ireland's best to race."
