On Saturday, guests gathered at the Kentucky Horse Park for the unveiling of โThe Bond: Two HeartsโOne Spirit,โ a monument honoring the extraordinary connection between Cody Dorman and the remarkable racehorse, Codyโs Wish. ๐
The bond between Codyโs Wish and Cody Dorman began in 2018 when the Dorman family visited Godolphinโs Gainsborough Farm through the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The young foal, later named Codyโs Wish, approached Cody, who was born with Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome and used a wheelchair for mobility. From that moment, a lifelong connection was formed. Codyโs Wish went on to become a Breedersโ Cup and Grade 1-winning champion, while Cody Dormanโs courage and joy captured the hearts of fans worldwide.
Created by renowned equine sculptor Jocelyn Russell, The Bond celebrates a relationship that transcended sport, disability, and circumstance. The life-sized bronze captures Codyโs Wish lowering his head as he so often did for Cody, a gesture that ignited a spark in both of their hearts and continues to inspire all who hear their story.
The monument is thoughtfully designed so that visitors in wheelchairs can roll up, place their hands on the horseโs nose, and meet the gaze of Codyโs Wish, a reflection of Cody Dormanโs own experience. Codyโs friend, Carson Jost, and his family were the first to take a photo with the monument.
Guests visiting the Kentucky Horse Park can view โThe Bond: Two HeartsโOne Spiritโ near the Hall of Champions Barn. Codyโs story, and the bond he shared with his best friend, will forever live on here at the Park.
