Cottage Rake (1939–1961) was a successful National Hunt racehorse. His breeder was Richard Vaughan from Hunting Hall Castletown Roche Co. Cork Ireland. Before he embarked on his jumping career he was failed by a vet on three different examinations. On the last of these occasions the vet was working for Frank Vickerman who had just become one of the first patrons of a new Irish trainer named Vincent O’Brien.
