Sintra to receive retirement ceremony Saturday
At 13h16, on November 16, 2023 • By WOODBINE MOHAWK
O’Brien Award winner and Canadian Pacing Derby champion Sintra will officially be retired with a special ceremony this Saturday (November 18) at Woodbine Mohawk Park.
A 10-year-old gelding, Sintra amassed 48 wins, $1.6 million in earnings and a mark of 1:47.2 during a tremendous racing career.
Owned by TheStable since July of 2022, Sintra won his final career start on September 25 at Grand River Raceway before his connections unanimously decided that the veteran pacer was ready to move into retirement.
Although Sintra finished his racing days with trainer Harry Poulton and TheStable, the son of Mach Three spent most of his career in the care of trainer Dave Menary.
TheStable’s Anthony MacDonald announced in mid-October that Sintra would be returned to the Menary Family to enjoy his well-earned retirement.
TheStable will formally return Sintra to the Menary’s during Saturday’s retirement ceremony.
