Looking Back

The Sherman family has been involved in the Arabian horse business for over 50 years. What started out as a hobby, quickly grew into a passion as the Shermans found their love for Arabians evolve into a breeding,showing, and selling operation.

The picturesque farm is situated on 145 acres in the San Fransisco/Bay Area with a meandering stream that sweeps through the middle of the ranch amidst rolling golden hills dotted with oak trees.

As any wise breeder will say, the strongest breeding programs are based on the best broodmares money can buy. With that wisdom in mind, the Shermans began by acquiring the most prized mares they could find. Among some of the bloodlines they chose to focus on starting out were *Serafix, *Bask++, and *Karadjordje. While their breeding program has evolved over the past decades, our main goal remains the same: to breed the most beautiful and talented Arabian horses in the world.

Looking Ahead

Sherman Ranch currently has frozen semen of two of their own stallions. Presidio CF is sired by the immortal Barbary+++ and is a Reserve National Champion English Pleasure winner, while his stablemate Nicklebey Berry is the son of 3-time Unanimous U.S. National Champion English Pleasure Open winner, Hucklebey Berry. The Sherman Ranch has had a lot of success with using both stallions and looking ahead, their hope is to use those daughters as outcrosses in an effort to improve the gene pool.

Among some of the bloodlines the Sherman Ranch is currently incorporating are Conspiracy OHS, IXL , Prosuasion ,CSP Grand Cayman, Rol Divine Style , Black Daniels and the Saddlebreds Glamorous Nuts and Arrowheads Bateluear. Past and present Sherman Ranch’s Bloodstock produce an uncanny ratio of top notch English pleasure show horse talent consistently winning at the regional, Scottsdale, Youth Mid Summer and US National shows
