Hollygrove Cha Cha (IRE)
2020 Bay filly by Affinisea ex Hollygrove Rumba (Indian Danehill)
Hollygrove Cha Cha is a lovely 4yo filly by the very promising young jumps stallion Affinisea, sire of several exciting young horses from his runners so far.
She is out of Hollygrove Rumba, a half-sister to Captain Cutter who won a Listed bumper on debut and looked immensely talented over hurdles, winning the Grade 1 Challow Hurdle before tragically losing his life in the Albert Bartlett at the Cheltenham Festival.
Hollygrove Cha Cha is a big, scopey filly who definitely looks to be one for the future, but impressed us all on debut when winning nicely at Stratford in March. She should do nothing but improve with age so she really is a very exciting horse to be involved with!
Jamie is a former amateur jockey who took both the Grand Military and Royal Artillery Gold cups several times, along with many other point to point and rules winners. After three years as Assistant to Nicky Henderson, Jamie started training in 2008 and moved to Folly House in 2011. Since then he has trained almost 400 winners, including Cheltenham Festival and Graded victories. Another career highlight came this season when Jamie won the Coral Gold Cup (formerly the Hennessy) at Newbury, a most coveted prize for Lambourn trainers in particular.
