A special appearance on Terang Pacing Cup night is on the agenda for megastar trotter Keayang Zahara who is nearing a return to work ahead of a busy 2025 campaign.

Tim O’Connor caught up with co-trainer Paddy Lee to discuss plans with the unbeaten squaregaiter, who set 2024 alight with 14 wins from 14 starts, including three major features in New Zealand.

Lee said discussions were taking place regarding Keayang Zahara parading and doing some light work during Terang’s feature meeting on February 14, and suggested her first appearance back at the races might be the Group 1 Macarthur Mile at Menangle on May 10.
