Mr. Sir, a statuesque 6 year old off the track Thoroughbred, was seized in July 2012 by the sheriffs department of Toole along with 34 other horses, who came to live at The Stable Place immediately upon rescue. When he was seized by the police he was skin and bones, with horrible scratches, large untended open wounds and no evidence of sorely needed foot or hoof care. Despite his neglect and considerable discomfort, Mr. Sir's gentle nature and calm disposition were apparent from the beginning.

Congratulations Ashley on your adoption of Grace. We can't wait to see you at the fun shows in the summer.

Since then, he has received the necessary attention and training to render him one of the stable's regular schooling ponies for advanced child riders.
