Publisher's Synopsis
The bell rings and they're off! Zippy the racehorse-descended from legends-is destined for glory, but when the other horses bolt from the gate . . . Zippy stands still. When people try to pet him . . . he bites their hats and escapes from his stall. What's an owner to do? Keep on trying! After all, Zippy has become part of Felix's family-and a close friend of his little daughter. And after 100 straight losses, Zippy shows everyone that-win, lose, or draw-it takes guts to compete and that you can lose and lose and still be a winner.
