Anzac gelding

Anzac has been identified from lists of horses trucked to Victoria from Alice Springs sale yards, saving them from a Meatworks fate, station origin not recorded but rescued along with the Garden, Cordillo and Jinka horses in the mid to late 1980s.

Please let us know if you know anything more about this horse, anecdotes and photos welcomed!

The name Anzac is a nod to the military history of the Walers.
