RacingBreaks Ryder

RacingBreaks Ryder is an attractive four-year-old gelding by Fast Company and out of the well-bred mare, Nisma.

RacingBreaks Ryder looked a speedy type when breezing and there’s plenty of stamina in his pedigree. He caught the eye of bloodstock agent Anthony Bromley at the Tattersalls Guineas Breeze Up sales, who thought he was perfect for Racing Breaks.

Fast Company is sire to some top Flat horses, including Jet Setting, who finished her racing career after her three-year-old season with a mark of 120.

His dam, Nisma, is a Montjeu mare, putting RacingBreaks Ryder in the same family of Sadler’s Wells – one of racing’s most successful and influential bloodlines.

His trainer, Charlie Hills noted that RacingBreaks Ryder has “got a very good action and is a very forward going horse. Looks very bright and alert in his eye – enjoys what he does as well, which is important”.

RacingBreaks Ryder progressed nicely through his first season of racing and finished it off with a very encouraging win at Brighton.

He then got his 3-year-old campaign off to a great start by winning his seasonal debut at Nottingham. Ryder went on to win two further races (click HERE to watch his win at Ascot), making it four on the bounce before running at some of the most prestigious Flat meetings in the world; Royal Ascot, followed by Glorious Goodwood and the Ebor Festival at York.

Following a gelding op and a break over the Winter, RacingBreaks Ryder has enjoyed another good season. He has really come into his own in the latter part of this year, as shown when he finished a promising 3rd in a big field handicap at Glorious Goodwood. He backed this up with another 3rd at Windsor, as part of the Racing League series, and another placed effort at Thirsk in September.

This clearly gave him the confidence boost he needed, as he managed to get his head in front at Catterick in October. It was great to see him get another win to his name - he has now won every season he has raced!
