Zena, Warrior,
Princess |
When Jade Bell (9) visited
ILPH Overa House Farm, Larling as a birthday treat little did she think that
the family would shortly return as competition winners. "It's the first
time we have visited the centreº, says Jade, "I loved seeing all the
rescued horses and ponies - it was really cool !"

Comments Mrs Bell, from Thorpe Marriot,
Norwich, "There was a "name the foal competition", but as the
foal hadn't been born we didn't know whether it would be male or
female."
It was Ben Bell (12) who, realising that the
mare was called Zena, suggested Warrior for a colt (boy) and Princess for a
filly (girl) foal (after the tv programme Xena, Warrior Princess) and it was
good enough for them to win !
Zena on arrival at the ILPH |
The family were thrilled to
meet Warrior who was born fit and healthy against all the odds. His mother,
Zena, came into the ILPH extremely under nourished and covered in lice.
Adds Tony Tyler, ILPH Centre Manager, "We
were extremely worried for Zena, she was pathetically thin when she arrived,
but she has done Warrior proud he is a stirling little chap."
