The horse was named after Cody Dorman, a teenager with Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome who did not have the ability to walk or communicate on his own and first met the horse when he was a weanling and part of a Make-a-Wish event at Gainesborough Farm in Versailles, Ky.

Dorman first met the horse during a Make-A-Wish visit to Godolphin’s Gainsborough Farm in Lexington, Kentucky, when Cody‘s Wish was a 5-month-old weanling in 2018. The animal walked over to Dorman‘s wheelchair and put his head in the boy’s lap, creating such a connection that Godolphin decided a year later to name the horse after Dorman.

One of Whitman’s exercise riders had asked her to buy an inexpensive weanling for him in lieu of what she owed him.

“Everything about her looks like a weanling,” Smith said, referring to a horse under a year old.
