Selfies with Sebring

Tara Madgwick - Sunday February 24
In the history of Breednet, which started in 2005, we have never had such a reaction to the passing of a sire as we have with Widden Stud's Golden Slipper winner Sebring, so we ask the audience to share your memories of this most popular sire and send us your 'Selfies with Sebring' for a special tribute.

He was famous on the track and he was famous as a great sire, but his warm personality and generosity of spirit made him a personal favourite with many horse lovers.

At every Widden Stud stallion parade, Sebring closed the show with his 'Selfies with Sebring' appearance where he was happy to eat carrots and have his picture taken with adoring fans.






A horse this special deserves to be celebrated, share with us on Twitter @breednet or email us at media@breednet.com.au.
