About
Ryehill is a 9yo bay horse trained by R O'sullivan in Kildare. He is by the stallion Mahler out of Night Maid. To date he has secured four career victories. On 9 February 2025 at Naas, Ryehill earned his biggest win, collecting the $13,500 Chnhf prize. He has been a rewarding runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 26% return on investment.
