Sea Cottage Stakes (1800m)|updated=}}Sea Cottage[1], (1962 - 1987) was a Champion South African bred racehorse. He was the first equine athlete inductee into the South African Hall Of Fame in [https://halloffame.co.za/portfolio/sea-cottage/ 2019], and was a Champion in each year that he raced (1964-1967). He was foaled at the [https://capebreeders.co.za/breeders/vogel-vlei-birch-bros/ Birch Brothers Vogel Vlei Stud] in Dordrecht, South Africa. He was trained by Sydney Charles Laird, who also owned him during his racing career. Syd Laird was Champion trainer for 8 seasons[2] in South Africa and the first trainer to be inducted into the South African Hall of Fame in 2019 [https://halloffame.co.za/portfolio/syd-laird/]. Sea Cottage won 20 of his 24 starts with 1 third and 3 fourths and earned a record at the time of ZAR118,128[3]. He was humanely destroyed in 1987 at age 25, after complications from a stroke.[4]

Background

Sea Cottage was trained at Summerveld in Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa and raced from December 1964 to August 1967 in South Africa. He won races at all the major racing centres, Cape Town, Durban and Johannesburg and set a record number of stakes races won, 18, and record earnings of ZAR118,128 before he retired to stud in 1967. His record for the number of stakes races won was bested by Sentinel in 1974. He was leased by his breeders the Birch Brothers to Syd Laird for the duration of his racing career. He was ridden in all his starts but one (his second) by Robert (Bobby) Sivewright.

[5] His sire Fairthorn headed the South African General Sires List five times, the South African Two Year Old Sires List six times and the South African Broodmare Sires List three times. His dam Maritime produced two other stakes horses in Top Gallant (1960) which won 6 races in South Africa and the United States and Naval Escort (1965) which won 12 races in South Africa.  His third dam Drohsky produced another South African Champion racehorse, Lenin.

Racing Career[6]

Sea Cottage made his début on January 12, 1964 and had his last race on August 26, 1967. He ran 24 times for 20 wins (18 of which were Stakes races) and 1 third. He was placed 4th in his 3 other starts. He was both Champion Two Year Old (1964/65) and Three Year Old (1965/66) and Horse of the Year/Season in 1965/66 and 1966/67. He retired as the highest stakes earner in South Africa at that time with earnings of ZAR118,128. He won two Queens Plate (Grade 1) over 1600m at Kenilworth the first of which (1966) equalled the race record. He dead-heated for first place in the 1967 Durban July Handicap[7]. He won both the South African Guineas and the Cape Derby. He won from 1000m to 2400m.

He won all of his first 8 starts and all of his last 7 starts. He was involved in one of the most infamous equine shootings in June 1966 when a gunman shot him on his way to a beach walk in Durban, just three weeks prior to his participation in the 1966 Durban July Handicap.[8] The shooting although serious was not career ending and he did race in the Durban July Handicap three weeks later but only managed to finish 4th[9]. His final race was a sell-out at Gosforth Park, Germiston, South Africa which he won comfortably by 5.5 lengths. [10]

Stud Record

Sea Cottage retired to stud at his birth place, Vogel Vlei Stud, in 1967, producing his first foal crop in 1968. He bred from 1967 to 1986 with foals born from 1968 through to 1987. He sired 298 foals, 256 of which raced and 160 (15 stakes winners) which were winners, and which won ZAR1,996,027 in prize money.[11]. He was second on the South African General Sires List in the 1973/74 season.[12] His best horse was Ocean City[13] which won 16 races (9 Stakes), and placed in another 47 (22 Stakes) in 89 starts.
