Hollygrove Cha Cha (IRE)

2020 Bay filly by Affinisea ex Hollygrove Rumba (Indian Danehill)

Hollygrove Cha Cha is a very exciting four-year-old filly by the hot young sire Affinisea. She is out of Hollygrove Rhumba, a half-sister to the very talented but ill-fated Grade 1 winner Captain Cutter and the useful Gowel Road.

Hollygrove Cha Cha was a mid-season addition to our team last season and she didn’t take long to become a new favourite, winning a bumper on debut and then following up under a penalty in April. She has now won two races over hurdles, taking her record to four from four and we couldn’t be more excited about what the future holds for her! She is leased from Salome Brennan.
