Lady Sheila Stable

Lady Sheila Stable is a partnership for women run by renowned ballerina and international model Sheila Rosenblum. The partnership races multiple graded stakes winner La Verdad as well as her graded stakes-winning half-sibling Hot City Girl.

Once a jumper and dressage rider, Rosenblum decided to get in on the Thoroughbred ownership side in 2000. At the time, she purchased eight yearlings. The move didn't pan out and Rosenblum found herself losing money and sleep.

That baptism by fire might’ve scared away a less determined and competitive person, but not Rosenblum. Rather instinctively, she got back on her feet, steadied herself and found that balance which had always been the key to her success on the biggest of stages.

In 2013, guided by the knowledge of trainer Linda Rice — the only woman to ever win a training title at Saratoga — Rosenblum purchased La Verdad. The gifted sprinter has gone on to amass multiple graded stakes victories and more than $1-million in purse earnings for Rosenblum. In 2015 the mare was named champion female sprinter, reaching a new pinnacle for Rosenblum.
