On 2nd July 2011 ANZA President, PJ Roberts, was formally introduced to Kodie, the RDA pony ANZA Action has kindly chosen to sponsor for 3 years. Kodie was treated to tasty snacks consisting of apples and carrots whilst he patiently posed for photos. The ANZA Action Committee members, with Cindy Quek (RDA Committee Member) and Samantha Taylor (RDA’s General Manager) meanwhile were treated to coffee, tea and yummy homemade cakes and sandwiches!
Thank you to ANZA Action for your support!
The RDA Dinner and Dance night was held on 14th May, 2011 with a Back to School theme. Everyone enthusiastically participated in dressing the part! There were naughty and nice school girls, professors, Pink Ladies and T-Birds, and even a group from the Singapore Reform School for Old Fart Offenders. Everyone was greeted at the door with free flowing champagne, wine and beer, which continued all night long. Eugene Yong, the honorary Chairman of the RDA started the evening with a moving speech about a few of the riders, their backgrounds, and how they have benefited from their time with the RDA. The buffet was then opened with amazing dishes from all around the world, starting from Thai salads all the way through to European fish and chips. After the feast, the MC began the auction bidding wars. The highlight of the evening was a Vespa painted by artist Sakwut Wisesmanee that auctioned for S$15,000.00!




With four names races on the cards, the day was sure bet!
After a short speech by RDA’s own Chairman, Eugene Yong, the races began!
First up was the ‘Forget-me-not-stakes’, closely followed by the British Association Gallop with the ANZA Action Cup not far behind! The RDA Cup finished the line up straight after afternoon tea was served. The ladies were glamorous in their posh frocks and the gents queued to place their bets.
Fun was had by all as well as raising much needed cash for RDA and its beneficiaries.


Thank you to all our guests for a wonderful Sunday afternoon!
