Zonda, in my eyes, is a horse with enormous potential. He is out of a mare whose name is after one of my very favourite books, is an exceptionally beautiful horse, and appears to be very talented. His only downfall may perhaps be his apparent fragility, which I hope will improve with maturity. He is by the all conquering Zabeel, who is the newly crowned Champion Australian Sire, also winning Champion NZ Sire. Zabeel is of course also the sire of Might and Power, Octagonal and Champagne. Zonda has won the NZ Derby and came to Australia last autumn for a win and tow placings to Gold Guru. He is apparently in doubt to come to Australia this spring, but, if this is the case, he should be a real force to be reckoned with next autumn. I think he is a terrific horse !
