Wendy O'Connor
Owner
With over 44 years of experience working with horses, I spent 30 years in the stud industry and the remaining within the racing industry. Over the years I have assisted and delivered hundreds of foals, most of which go smoothly (thankfully). However things don't always go to plan. I have developed the skill to care for the mare and/or foal and am now known for fostering and hand rearing orphan foals. I have worked for both well known Veterinary practices in Newmarket and even published a book on raising orphan foals.
Zoe Middleton
Owner
I've always had a love for horses and taking care of them is my passion, especially foals. I have worked with and grown up around horses at Middleton Stud. Horses have always been a huge part of my life and branching out to work with them in different environments was something I was eager to do. Gaining qualifications from The National Stud, working at various studs in the UK, Equine hospitals and working in Germany for a year running a stud. This has taught me many new things that I have been able to bring back and apply to the stud life in England. Now here to help grow Middleton Stud I'm excited to be an owner, as well as family.
