Zenyatta/Joanna - Joan Dobbie - Bog

Joanna, the human poet of the two, first discovered Zenyatta on public radio on November 5, 2010, the day before the Breeder's Choice race that ended her career as a race horse. Curious, Joanna got onto her computer... and the rest is recorded in these poems. Zenyatta herself was born on April 1, 2004. She won her first 19 consecutive races. She was the 2010 Horse of the Year and Champion Older Female in 2008, 2009, 2010 and many other accolades came her way, including being the only non-human in Oprah's 2010 O Power list. After her final race, and only loss, Zenyatta was retired to Lane's End breeding farm, where she resides to this day, producing foal after foal. Many of Zenyatta's fans know her as a beautiful dancer as well as a racer, but few know that she is also a sensitive poet, as you will see in Zenyatta/Joanna. Two Poets: One Equine/One Human
