HYGGE is a Danish word used when acknowledging a feeling or moment, whether alone or with friends, at home or out, ordinary or extraordinary as cosy, charming or special. It is also the name of a recent stakes winner in Japan, one that has quite a connection to Ireland.

The dam of Hygge is the Sinndar (Grand Lodge) mare Moonlight Dance. She was bred by Marguerite Weld and offered at the Goffs Orby Sale in 2003. Sold in the ring for €290,000, she was signed for by Richard Fahey.
