Since purchasing Bridge in 2023 he has been an absolute joy of a horse to be involved with and is a firm favourite at HOTSR and Gary Moore’s Cisswood Stables! Not only does he wear his heart on his sleeve, but during his first season hurdling this son of Golden Horn won in wonderful style at Fontwell Park on Boxing Day and also notched up several placed efforts. There are certainly more wins to come from our very likeable Bridge.
Bridge was lightly raced when we purchased him for just £10k with just 6 runs under his belt on the flat, often running too free. He is by Group 1 Derby & Coral Eclipse winner Golden Horn – a stallion Gary cannot speak highly of as he produces horses with good track records both on the flat and over sticks who are genuine, uncomplicated and can go on any ground – which is Bridge through and through!
After his first 3 runs over hurdles where he learnt plenty, everything came together for the win at Fontwell Park on Boxing Day in 2023 under Caoilin Quinn. Bridge was keen during the early part of his race but once given daylight he travelled strongly and was the only one remaining on the bridle. He gave an impressive victory on heavy ground – what a lovely Christmas treat for his Owners!
Bridge finished in the winners enclosure on three more occasions since the win and remains such an honest horse who really does give his all. Unfortunately he did pick up an injury on the gallops in the early part of his 2024/25 season so is currently on the sidelines until next autumn.
