Race entries
He’s annihilated a field of 250+ runners.
Mocklershill Stables are just about leaders in the field of breeze-up consigning - indeed, we purchased our Group 1 winner and St Leger runner-up VENTURA STORM from Willie Brown’s Mocklershill around a decade ago. They’re brilliant at prepping a horse for the Breeze Ups, without over-prepping them, i.e. they prep them to be a racehorse just as much as they prep them to perform on the day of the sale. It’s a tried and tested formula that has served them well over the years.
To be able to come away with the fastest breezer of ALL 250 participants is a real feather in our cap - he ‘won’ the race by approximately half a length, with a further length back to the third horse if you are to convert times to race distances. These sorts of ‘winning’ distances are quite unheard of. Normally, a breeze-up ‘race’ is won by very fine margins, eg a short head or a nose - so who knows how far clear of the field he would be, the greater the distance the race would be run over?
The fastest breezer from the 2024 renewal of this sale, produced the 3 time winner and virtually guaranteed Group performer HAMMER THE HAMMER, in training with Kevin Ryan. He looks on course to take in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot no less - pretty illustrious company for our son of Havana Grey to be following in the hoof steps of.

These sales used to be called ‘Ready To Run’ Sales & that’s exactly what he is. He simply needs a name, some stalls’ tuition & a race entry can immediately ensue.
He heads to one of the most upwardly mobile trainers in the country, Alice Haynes, who trains from the very smart Kremlin Cottage Stables on the Bury Roadside of town.
He’s a strong, robust horse with a fabulously speedy pedigree, and we can’t wait to see him hit the track very soon.
Another fantastic bonus, he qualifies for a €10,000 'IRE' bonus, should he win a qualifying maiden or novice Stakes race in 2025. You can read more about how it works, here: https://www.itm.ie/Buying/Sales-Incentives/IRE-Incentive
Training Update: He has arrived at Alice's and had no issues settling in. Watch a video of him cantering in the string below:
