LOVELY ZEBEDY đŚ Alice, from Yarrambat Horse & Pony Club in VIC, adores her off-the-track Thoroughbred. Her mum, Alannah, shared why this special boy deserves to be Horse of the Week. Here's what she had to say:
"My daughter, Alice, is 16. She has Autism with a mild intellectual disability, ADHD, anxiety, and is severely dyslexic," Alannah says. "Zebedy (Zeb), formerly known as Tsar, was born in England. He raced a few times, then went to Hong Kong. After retiring in 2022, he was purchased by Lindsay Park Racing and went to a re-trainer.
"Alice rode Zeb in Barnawartha and it was love at first sight for both of them. He came down to Doreen the day after his sixth birthday in April, and to say he was green is a total understatement.
"With love, patience, time and a wonderful instructor in Colleen Waddell, Zeb and Alice have thrived together."
âThank you, Alannah, for sharing the story of Alice and Zeb's partnership! Their special connection and the progress they've made in such a short time are truly inspiring, thanks to the support of your wonderful club. This also speaks volumes about Zeb's calm, caring, and obliging temperament.
