Following the death of Fred in 1981’ Mercy took over
the Trainers Licence and Won the Champion Hurdle in her own right in 1983 with Gaye Brief. She trained
many of that family and retained Gaye Memory as a brood mare having won 2 Bumpers. One of the off
springs Simon now runs in her colours and is trained by Philip Fenton and earned more Black Type for this
famous pedigree this season.
