A truly memorable day for Hot To Trot Jumping on Thursday with Hollygrove Cha Cha WINNING the Jane Seymour Mares Novices Hurdle (Grade 2) at Sandown, giving us our biggest win over obstacles to date! HCC led from start to finish, only seeing another rival when tiring in the final stages and finishing up in a nail-biting photo finish. When the judge called her the winner, a huge cheer erupted from the 50 Hot To Trot Members in attendance – an unforgettable moment for everyone present!

Hollygrove Cha Cha is such a tough and honest mare, and deserved this black type win with her career placings now reading 111121. Congratulations to Jamie Snowden’s team, Gavin Sheehan and her breeder Salome Brennan along with all the Members of Hot To Trot Jumping, some of whom enjoyed the exhilarating finish from the likes of India, Costa Rica, the Alps, and Egypt – the wonders of modern wifi!

Hollygrove Cha Cha is as exciting as they come and we are enjoying every step of this journey with her! All eyes will be on Cheltenham in a few weeks time and we very much hope to be there with her… But for now, we will enjoy this landmark win for a good bit longer!
