Brayhill came over from Ireland in 2021 after a good second to Rockstar Ronnie in a point-to-point (who has since won twice for Dan Skelton) and had two wins under his belt with Graham McKeever (where we also sourced Charmant). He started in a bumper with us and won a novice hurdle race over 2m3f at Carlisle with Rachael McDonald beating 125 rated The Mighty Arc. Last season in his first race he was cruising in front with Alan Doyle at Carlisle jumping superbly and a length up at this stage to 127 rated Harpers Brook when he had a bizarre accident. Approaching the last hurdle he went through the wing so this was very disappointing day for all concerned. He then ran well in his first handicap hurdle at Musselburgh coming third. We are looking forward to him going chasing as he stays well so we have plenty of options on a galloping track.
By Sadlers Wells the Sire Sholokhov stands at Glenview Stud and won the Grand Criterium 1m as a 2yo and then was runner-up in the Irish Derby and Eclipse Stakes. He is now a successful NH sire of Shishkin, Don Cossack, Dell’Arca etc.
The Dam produced Chooseyourweapon a Bumper and Hurdle winner and 4th in a Class 1 G2 Hurdle. 132 rated Grand Dam Love the Lord won five chases a hurdle and a Bumper including a Grade 3 Novice Chase and the Grade 1 Power Gold Cup at Fairyhouse. She went on to produce three winners herself - Hurdles and Chase winner He’s the Guv’nor and Bumper winner Mister W K and Hurdle winner Captain Crackers.
