Rehoming Tales: Master Sheridan



Rehoming Tales: Master Sheridan


Posted: 09.07 • 01 Jul 2023 • Rehoming


Earlier this week Master Sheridan left the yard for the final time and headed into retirement.

A homebred son of multiple winner mare Miss Sheridan, he was born at Norton Grove Stud in 2020 and he grew up here at New House Farm.

We knew him as 'Boris', named as such because he was born at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic when the then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson was in hospital.

Master Sheridan raced five times, his best run coming when fourth at Beverley earlier this year. However, after finishing last at Catterick in June we decided to retire him as he really wasn't in enjoying what he was doing.

A lovely lady called Gill came to view Boris at the yard and immediately fell in love with him. Earlier this week he was loaded at New House Farm for the last time and at lunchtime arrived in the Lake District where he will spend the rest of his natural life.

He'll be a happy hacker and we are sure he'll bring much joy into the lives of Gill and her family.

"He seems to be loving it already", said Gill.

"He's a very cuddly boy. He stands with his head in our hands chilling."

"We are very lucky and have miles of off road hacking and lots of hills for him to climb."

We wish Gill and her family many happy years and Boris and look forward to following his progress.
