INTRODUCTION: 

The original yard was built in the 1870s by Prince Soltykoff as part of his Kremlin Stud, and became a training yard when owned by the Macdonald-Buchanan Family and leased by Luca Cumani. Kremlin Cottage has an enviable record in producing winners at group and listed level, including Derby Winners; High Rise and Kahyasi and, under Hugo Palmer's ownership; Aktabantay, Afandem, Best of Days, Gifted Master, Home of the Brave, New Providence, Covert Love, Galileo Gold, Hawksmoor, Unforgettable Filly and Ebro River among many other winners.
