Zee (Catch Sum Zees) came to Crosswinds via a fantastic organization known as CANTER which works to place former race horses in new homes and new careers. Zee had bone chips in her knee after her first race and, luckily for her, had a fantastic owner who took her VERY seriously. She had all the right surgical and rehabilitative care, and then was immediately retired from racing, including notifying the Jockey Club and properly labeling her papers.

Zee arrived in spring 2001, and was terribly lonely for the first two weeks, as the first rescue at the newly setup Crosswinds Equine Rescue, until little baby Laddie came to join her (shown together in the second photo from the right).

Zee became a fantastic riding horse, and we were thrilled to place her in November 2002 into a wonderful dressage home. Congratulations Missy and CONGRATULATIONS ZEE!

Missy reports that Zee is doing fantastic -- winning at dressage events all over the Omaha Nebraska area. She is thrilled with Zee's personality, her drive, and her performance. Below is our latest update photo -- winter 2007/08!
