Cilaos Glace – an impressive dual winner over hurdles

  • Delighted Owners of Cilaos Glace as he wins his second race, April 2019
  • Cilaos Glace jumping the last as he wins impressively over hurdles, March 2019
  • A beautiful moving horse who looks to have potential

This strapping 6-year old gelding – by hugely successful Group 1 winning Sire Voix Du Nord Sire of Grade 1 winners Vroum Vroum Mag, Vibrato Valtat and Defi Du Seuil – is an impressive dual hurdle winner in training with Oliver Sherwood. One we cannot wait for this jumps season!

From day one we knew this horse would be a long term prospect and with that in mind he was not rushed as a youngster. However once he began full training (originally with Gary Moore) there was a lot to like about him, particular his raw willingness and ability to power up the gallops.

He was purchased in France by top bloodstock agent Anthony Bromley at the age of 2, and apart from ticking all the boxes conformation wise, what really caught Anthony’s eye was the pedigree – he loves the Sire Voix Du Nord, and the Dam won 5 races, and was placed 8 times from just 19 starts – all over jumps. The horse enjoyed plenty of pre-training, hacking and has even schooled over a few cross country fences since being in the UK.

He made an over-exuberant debut in 2018 and a few minor immaturity issues needed respecting shortly after. Despite Gary and his team doing an excellent job, his Owners felt a change in the horse’s training regime (where some swimming could be undertook) may be what Cilaos Glace needs and he therefore moved to Oliver Sherwood’s yard last summer.

After an encouraging start to his hurdling career, it wasn’t long before Cilaos Glace began his winning ways. Under great rides from Leighton Aspell on both occasions, the horse travelled strongly, jumping brilliantly and going onto win his back-to-back victories in an impressive victory at Fontwell in March and Chepstow in April. Cilaos Glace certainly looks to be a horse with plenty of potential and we cannot wait to see him jump a fence this season!

Voix Du Nord by Valanour

Voix Du Nord is now a hugely popular National Hunt sire and throughout his racing career he won 4 races. At the age of 2 he won the Group 1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud in France and followed this up by winning a Group 2 Prix Noailles by an impressive 3 lengths. At 3, he won the Group 1 Prix Lupin over 11 furlongs.

He has Sired many great National Hunt horses including the utterly sensational multiple Grade 1 winning Vroum Vroum Mag, Grade 1 Cheltenham winners Taquin Du Seuil and Vibrato Valtat, and the progressive 154-rated Vaniteux. 5-year old Coeur De Lion also won the big bumper at the Punchestown Festival in April 2016.

Miss Glacee by Mister Mat

This Dam is a winner of 5 chase and hurdle races and was placed 8 times from only 19 starts. Out of her 3 offspring that have run, she has produced winning mare Bonbon Glace as well as the consistently placed Misterglacon. Voix Du Nord is by far the best stallion she has gone to.

Her Dam Miss Mood was also a very good horse, winning two races throughout her career and going onto produce 9 winners from 11 foals, including Group winners Ice Mood and My Risk as well as Listed winner (and a winner of 33 races) Mood War.
