before the race , monserrate was optimistic , despite the fact his horse was starting on the outside—a position he doesn’t like . he said zippy chippy was “relaxed and happy . ”
zippy chippy was apparently a betting favorite due to his record , not in spite of it . at one point , the odds on him winning were listed as even money .
fans and trainers had opposite views , however , of whether zippy chippy is good for thoroughbred racing , a sport that has seen a steady decline in interest over the years .
but for zippy chippy , his notoriety as the most losingest thoroughbred in racehorse history is why the 25 - year - old bay gelding has legions of fans across the world .
but zippy had a complicated relationship with racing and training , and the happier felix got , the more zippy loved to terrorize him .
as it happens first told the story of zippy chippy in 1998 , when he lost his 85th race . this tied him for the record for losingest horse in thoroughbred racing history .
but zippy chippy became a sideshow . in august 2000 he lost a 40 - yard dash to jose herrera , a centre - fielder with the triple - a rochester red wings .
zippy chippy wasn’t zippy , for despite his name he tended not to run a lot , although he wasn’t lame one hundred times he entered races . never did he win and sometimes zippy just stood still , and he would not begin the call would be “their off ! ” but zippy wasn’t off at all he’d look around as if to say , “let’s go back to the stall . ”
by losing 100 times in 100 career starts , zippy chippy cemented his legend as a loveable loser , a rogue whose face adorns coffee mugs captioned with “winners don’t always finish first . ”
owner and trainer felix monserrate , who has remained optimistic despite his horse’s career - long losing streak , said he would bring zippy chippy back to the three - county fair next year .
zippy chippy was born in april 1991 in upstate new york . he was eighth in his first race on sept . 13 , 1994 , at belmont park at 15 - 1 odds .
zippy earned a different kind of fame . in 100 starts , zippy won 0 . but winners don’t always finish first . watching zippy rack up his 0 for 100 record became such a popular pastime that stories about him on the blood - horse web site got more reads than stories about kentucky derby winners , and in 2000 people magazine voted zippy chippy one of the year’s “most intriguing characters . ”
on january 1 , 2015 zippy celebrated his twenty fourth birthday , he seems happy being the star at cabin creek and i can only assume has lasted a lot longer than that old horse van he was traded for . i had a two dollar win ticket on zippy chippy , that hung around for years , that of course , i can ' t find but i do have my original , first addition zippy chippy t - shirt from 2000 .
and then . . . he heard laughter . marisa was standing in front of zippy chippy , wagging her finger and telling him he’d been “a very bad boy , ” over and over .

the 9 - year - old gelding finished third saturday in the eighth race at the three - county fair , extending zippy chippy’s record as the losingest horse in american thoroughbred history to 88 races .
zippy chippy , ridden by pedro carrasqual , finished seven lengths behind winner bidakeno in the $ 10 , 100 six - furlong race . the six other competitors were all 4 - year - olds .
zippy chippy turned 24 years old last month . the dark brown gelding and former western new york resident is stabled at the cabin creek farm — a kind of old folks home for thoroughbred racehorses .
zippy chippy ' s current home is at a farm called old friends at cabin creek , established 10 years ago in greenfield , n . y . , a quick run from the track in saratoga springs . well , quick for any horse but zippy . anyway , old friends , which is supported by donations , a few grants , and fundraisers , some featuring zippy , is home to 14 retired race horses , though capacity is supposed to be 12 . according to joann pepper , zippy chippy is among those ok with sharing space with a pal .
“after waving goodbye to his van , felix went into the barn as the new and proud owner of zippy chippy , a horse that had nowhere to go but up , ” humorist william thomas writes in “the legend of zippy chippy : life lessons from horse racing’s most lovable loser , ” his entertaining new book . “by way of offering his opinion of the trade , the horse immediately bit him . ”
until he was banished from finger lakes , things were pretty dull , but zippy came close to ruining his career on october 3 , 1995 when he finished with a rush to finish second in a five and one half furlong race , had the race been six furlongs , zippy chippy would just have been another horse . after his last finger lakes race , it was almost a year before zippy returned to massachusetts , at the three county fair in northampton , for his only start of 1999 . a new millennium and a new zippy chippy were on the horizon .
zippy chippy , the gelding who became famous for losing all 100 of his lifetime starts , has been retired to the old friends retirement farm ' s bobby frankel division in greenfield center , n . y .
thomas is an avid hiker . he was tramping through the finger lakes region a few years back when he stopped into a bar near zippy’s home track . the conversation turned to secretariat , the greatest of the greats . then , the bartender mentioned zippy chippy , the anti - secretariat .
a year later , zippy was still running . and he was still slow .
zippy chippy was born to father compliance and mother listen lady , and he can count northern dancer , man o ' war , bold ruler , and war admiral as some of his famous ancestors , it says .
zippy chippy finally won march 17 , 2001 , beating standardbred paddy ' s laddy in a match race at freehold raceway . later that year , he defeated rochester player darnell mcdonald in a 50 - yard sprint .
part of zippy chippy ' s problem could be that he doesn ' t get much work . some tracks banned him after he dawdled at the start of three races in 1998 at finger lakes in new york .
loss after loss , felix would defend zippy chippy . “say you have three children , ” he’d tell local sportswriters . “one is a lawyer , doing well . the other a doctor , very , very successful . but the third one , not so smart , so he’s working at mcdonald’s . what do you do , ignore him ? ” no , felix would say . “that’s the one you gotta help . that’s zippy chippy ! ”
thomas describes zippy chippy’s laid - back attitude towards life and sport in glowing terms , and uses the horse’s story to rail against a winning - obsessed culture that drives athletes to cheat and dope in order to get ahead .
he spent those two months training zippy to bolt out of he gate ; one more suspension — three was the limit — and zippy’s career would be over . it went better than felix could have hoped : every single time , zippy would break clear .
monserrate acquired zippy in a 1995 trade with his breeder for an old horse van .
if you want to see zippy chippy or any of his more accomplished neighbors at old friends , summer visiting hours are 11 a . m . to 4 p . m . , tuesday , thursday , friday , and saturday .
zippy may have been forced out of professional racing , but his fans loved him all the more for it . a new jersey contingent presented zippy with an enormous hallmark card .
zippy chippy will go down in history as one of the most famous thoroughbreds in horse racing history — for never having won a single race . one hundred races without breasting the tape . neigh , not one . zero . zip .
zippy , according to the post , continued to be a frequently uncooperative regarding his training .
so , in a way , it was fortuitous that zippy never won , blowen said .
charlie pierce is not known for going easy on athletes , and zippy was no exception .
when zippy was later beaten in a 40 - yard - dash by a minor league baseball player , monserrate chalked it up to zippy allowing his opponent to win , the post reported .
people magazine listed him among its most interesting personalities in 2000 . he has an entry in the encyclopedia of new york and now he has his own book — the legend of zippy chippy — written by his official biographer , canadian humourist william thomas .
it wasn’t for a lack of trying . zippy chippy , who has a habit of stalling at the start of races , led out of the gate and was neck - and - neck with second - place miner’s claim for much of the race .
the fair , where zippy chippy set the record for losingest horse last year , is the only track that hasn’t banned him from racing . years of losing , bad behavior and his habit of stopping at the starting gate have soured tracks on him .
writing a biography of a horse reveals some interesting limitations of the life - narrative genre itself . thomas frequently gets inside zippy chippy’s head , describing how his subject feels about racing , eating and taking it easy in a high - stakes world . either thomas is a telepathic horse whisperer and zippy chippy is the smartest horse in the world , or else the author has used a lot of creative licence . it makes you reflect on the fact that all biographers are probably just as imaginative with their subjects .
old friends founder and president michael blowen saw zippy almost win a race in the late 1990s .
shortly after a race on june 3 , 1995 , monserrate traded an old horse van with zippy ' s original breeder , for ownership of the horse . they would remain together for around 15 years , before monserrate sold zippy chippy , assured that he would spend his days at a retirement home for thoroughbred race horses , and what a fifteen years it was .
felix monserrate , schoeneman’s spouse , saw otherwise . he was a puerto rican immigrant , an incurable dreamer and a horse trainer who typically lost more than he won at the finger lakes racetrack in upstate new york . but his affections for zippy chippy were partly justifiable .
“stupendously , at the turn of this century , a racehorse by the name of zippy chippy became america’s greatest attempter . glorious was this horse in failure , tireless in the trying game . there was no winning , no cheating , no million - dollar contract for this remarkable athlete , because when all was said and done and put out to pasture , he was the great zippy chippy – a record - setting , always - struggling , full - striding scoundrel who became the best thoroughbred in professional racing at stealing people’s hearts . ”
zippy chippy did make some money with special appearances that drew plenty of fans , and in 2000 people magazine named him one of the year’s most intriguing personalities . today , he is retired , living out his days on a farm near saratoga , n . y .
trouble was , each mounting loss only boosted zippy chippy ' s cult following . he was banned from finger lakes racetrack in farmington , n . y . , in 1998 for failing to leave the gate three straight times , earning him a usa today cover story .
philadelphia - - he couldn ' t win in traditional horse races . he couldn ' t win against a minor league baseball player . and friday night , zippy chippy showed that he couldn ' t win when competing against other horses who have never won a race .
in 2000 , the same year he lost to the minor league player , people magazine named zippy chippy to its list of the year ' s most fascinating personalities . to his credit , the next year , zippy did beat another minor - league player , darnell mcdonald ( a former boston red sox outfielder who is now an outfielder with the new york yankees ) .
over three years , zippy ran 70 races at finger lakes , and the more he lost , the higher his star rose . but it was the race at finger lakes on june 23 , 1998 , where zippy really set himself apart : of the six other horses bolting out of the starting gate , zippy was not among them . the bell went off , but zippy chose not to hear it .
eventually , his jockey got zippy going , but it was more of a laid - back stroll .
so on the rainy november morning that felix’s 8 - year - old daughter , marisa , went missing , his heart was in his throat . she had grown up with horses all her life , and was oddly enamored of zippy chippy . felix ran to the stall .

in his 86th race in september 1999 , zippy chippy broke the record for consecutive losses without a win . in his 87th race sept . 1 , he came heartbreakingly close to the winner ' s circle . he led all the way before being edged by a nose .
in a culture whose mythology is saturated with formulaic tales of greatness and achievement , the legend of zippy chippy is a subversive celebration of failure . thomas revels in his subject’s absolute lack of interest when it comes to living up to his potential . the author includes family trees showing zippy’s bred - for - perfection pedigree—he was related to secretariat , seabiscuit and a dozen other all - time great racehorses—which make zippy seem like the wayward , layabout son of a high - achieving family .
emily schoeneman could see what her husband couldn’t . what she saw in zippy chippy , an ornery racehorse with donkey - like ears , a taste for coors light , pizza and doritos , and with zero wins in 20 career races , was a colossal error in male judgment .
horse lovers everywhere can agree on one thing : that horses have a lot to teach us , whether it’s patience , responsibility , or in the case of the irresistible bay thoroughbred race horse named zippy chippy , that one should never give up . and always go out laughing .
after his retirement , zippy chippy did a short stint as an outrider pony at his home track , finger lakes in 2005 . after that he spent his day ' s with the monserrate family , who claimed he was family , until a deal was struck that sent him to cabin creek farm in greenfield , new york . cabin creek is affiliated with old friends a retirement farm for race horses in kentucky . zippy chippy , gained national attention in 2000 , when he made people magazines , list of most interesting personalities . in 2001 , zippy was involved in what were billed as a couple of
publicity stunts
, hey a guys gotta make a living .
so begins william thomas’ the legend of zippy chippy : life lessons from horse racing’s most lovable loser . the unusual biography takes us through the life of america’s most unsuccessful thoroughbred racehorse who , over the course of his 100 - race career , lost every single professional race he entered .
over time , the more zippy lost , the more famous he became . he had a cult following among racing fans , who continued to bet on zippy , still holding out hope that he might eventually win .
but at approximately 2pm et all eyes turned towards the post parade for race 2 . zippy chippy was going to post ! surprisingly the crowd was abuzz with talk of zippy . the majority of patrons at this small , fair track seemed to be well aware of the story unfolding before them . zippy received a warm round of applause as the post parade passed in front of the grandstand ( almost close enough to touch ! ) . as zippy ( in the orange silks of the # 7 horse ) approached the starting gate folks were clicking away with their cameras and jockey willie belmonte winked and said ,
felix ' s groom owned zippy and wanted to get rid of him because he was moving to florida ,
thomas said .
felix said , ' kill the zippy horse ? no way , jose . '
his owner , felix monserrate , has shared his tale of woe with jay leno on
the tonight show .
and zippy chippy himself appeared on the pages of people magazine . last year , the magazine named the horse to its list of the year ' s 50 most fascinating personalities .
the new york post reported that zippy was a rebellious and uncooperative horse when it came to training - and by the time felix monserrate traded his truck so he could have zippy , the horse had already lost 20 races .
despite all this , zippy often went off as the favorite in the pre - race odds , blowen said .
and zippy showed some spirit as he and red galloped together down a hill to the paddock ' s edge .
felix already had a scar on his back from zippy’s inaugural bite . a few months later , felix and zippy were standing in front of the horse’s stall , and when felix turned around , zippy grabbed his shirt by the mouth and dangled the trainer in midair . as felix flailed and yelled , his fellow track workers laughed and laughed .
after beginning his career amid high hopes at belmont park — home to the belmont stakes of triple crown fame — zippy chippy tumbled from lesser track to lesser track , until bottoming out in the horse - racing boondocks , where his owner planned to sell him to a slaughterhouse before monserrate intervened in 1995 .
zippy chippy lives today upon a lovely farm and there he doesn’t do a single living creature harm the people come to visit him and some of them conclude that zippy chippy is a joke , and i would find that rude if i could not image that somehow ziggy’s worked it out perhaps he chose to beat the game , then beat it in a rout he did not suffer injuries . he didn’t suffer fools he got himself tossed off the track because of racing’s rules which say a horse that doesn’t try cannot participate if ziggy figured that one out i think it would be great for zippy need not run these days , and still he gets to eat he lacks for neither food nor love , he is a horse complete

monserrate described this tactic as zippy wanting “to see the other horses out in front of him before he run . ”
zippy , however , was friendly toward monserrate ' s daughter marisa . after searching for the girl , who ' d disappeared , monserrate saw the eight - year - old being nuzzled by zippy in a stall , the post recounted .
why when other horses ran , would zippy choose to be the only one unmoved by dreams of mighty victory ? some said the zippy had not heart , and some said he was nuts . one theory had it that he was a fumble footed klutz . but what if zippy chippy had a bigger brain than most ? and if he knew winning was an empty sort of boast if all the winning did was made some wealthy guy make money ? and what if zippy found that idea sort of sad and funny ? and what if he thought , “well they’re gonna to feed me anyway . why work as if without the work i wouldn’t get the hay ? ”
“after waving goodbye to his groom and his van , felix went into the barn as the new and proud owner of zippy chippy , a horse that had nowhere to go but up , ” thomas writes . “by way of offering his opinion of the trade , the horse immediately bit him . just like that . ”
there , zippy was passed among owners and wound up in the hands of felix monserrate , a 52 - year - old trainer who traded his 1988 ford truck for the horse . felix knew zippy was a nonstarter — at 0 - for - 20 , his losses were unprecedented for a thoroughbred . but monserrate didn’t like the way zippy’s previous owner treated him .
in his book , thomas writes of the love between horse and trainer , even though zippy seemed to enjoy tormenting monserrate .
the point is you don ' t have to come first to be a winner . zippy has proven that .
a week ago , zippy chippy , running against a field with a combined record of 0 - 132 , finished second by a neck . it was the best result in the career of a horse which , earlier this summer , lost a 40 - yard dash to a minor league outfielder in rochester , n . y .
in may 2000 , people magazine named zippy among their most interesting personalities , and when zippy ran his next race — against a minor league baseball player named josé herrera — the national news media was there . zippy did not disappoint , losing a 40 - yard dash to the 27 - year - old center fielder for the rochester red wings in less than five seconds .
i enjoyed this book and found it humorous , but the story was heavily added with tales of other sports . while these were amusing and analogous to zippy chippy , it broke up the flow of the story a bit . any fan of the underdog , humor or sports will find reading this a charming way to pass the time .
all of this belies zippy chippy ' s pedigree . his sire , compliance , is a son of northern dancer , who won the kentucky derby and the preakness stakes in 1964 . his dam , listen lady , was a daughter of the stakes - winning buckfinder , who was sired by buckpasser , the 1966 horse of the year .
owner and trainer felix monserrate bought the new york - bred compliance gelding for $ 2 , 500 and earned $ 30 , 834 with him . zippy chippy , now 19 , finished second eight times and third 12 times in his long career . when he retired in 2004 , he briefly served as a track pony at finger lakes .
zippy was within reach of setting his own record : just two races away from notching the most losses by an american thoroughbred .
in 2001 , zippy was last in a seven - horse field in which all the other competitors had never won , either .
“time now for our weekly zippy chippy update , ” bill littlefield told only a game analyst charlie pierce in 2000 . “last week the little gelding , who couldn ' t , and never has , and no doubt never will , ran his record losing streak to 87 when he finished second at a county fair right here in massachusetts . ”
zippy’s next race was sept . 8 , 1998 . it was a chilly day , and the stands were packed — this race would determine zippy’s fate . he was placed in no . 2 position , and among bettors that day , he was a favorite .
and so within minutes loss number 100 was in the record books and zippy was unsaddled and heading back to the barn . . .
felix , typically , would not concede athletic superiority . zippy , he said , “let josé win to make him feel good . ”
during the finger lakes races , monserrate envisioned a dozen doughnuts waiting in the jockey room if zippy ever attained that elusive first win .
zippy chippy was born on april 20 , 1991 , in upstate new york . he was the great - great - grandson of bold ruler , who fathered secretariat , and his family tree included triple crown winner war admiral , man o’ war , northern dancer and native dancer , who alone sired 295 winning horses with a combined generated income of $ 183 million .
finally , zippy put felix down . “he’s a strong horse , ” felix said . “he can hold you for a long time . ”
zippy’s story is very much an underdog’s story , and i asked thomas what it is about the little guy that appeals to us . “i think it’s because we’re all little guys . felix always said people related to zippy . they presented him with cards saying , ‘keep going , zippy’ and ‘don’t ever give up , ’ or ‘zippy , i feel for you , i just lost my job today . ’ it was always about hope . and i can tell you , at the track on most days in those barns there’s more hope than hay . ”
while other horses won millions in their careers , zippy chippy lost 100 races and earned a paltry $ 30 , 834 in his 10 years of racing . this is despite the fact that some of his ancestors were such successes as war admiral , the 1937 triple crown winner , and northern dancer , who in 1964 was the first canadian thoroughbred to win the kentucky derby .
from his earliest days , zippy was his own horse . he never really took to harnesses or saddles . told to run in one direction , zippy went the other . he stuck his tongue out at strangers and loped while other horses galloped . he terrorized trainers yet charmed children .
the legend of zippy chippy is the perfect antithesis of all the bullshit self - help books and rags - to - riches stories that are lionized everywhere else . in a world where everyone on instagram is having a better life than you , it’s a refreshing reminder to just keep on marching—or , in this case , trotting at a leisurely pace—to the beat of your own drummer .
“felix saw a lot of zippy in himself , ” thomas said this week in toronto . “they were both stubborn . they both never quit , and yet felix was proud to be a trainer and zippy was proud to be a racehorse , he just wasn’t very good at it . ”
zippy came to hate training so much that he trashed the exercise barn , kicking out part of the track’s fence and smashing the electric box . if handlers found themselves late with zippy’s food , they’d skip delivery rather than risk his wrath . some would only feed him with a rake .
another : “keep trying . god knows there are millions of us who relate to your struggles . ” zippy’s professional record : 0 - 100 .
retired from racing in 2004 , zippy had a brief second career as an outrider’s pony at his home track , finger lakes in new york .
zippy is now 25 and resides at old friends at cabin creek , a thoroughbred retirement farm in new york state not far from saratoga springs .
‘he was neither a speedster nor a steeplechaser , not a long - haul closer or a railside racer . he was zippy chippy , a free spirit at large and far from the grind of greatness , not sweating but celebrating the small stuff of life . he was at all times a professional racehorse , thriving , indeed rejoicing , in a quirky little world of his own . ”
felix monserrate couldn’t curb his enthusiasm after trading his rattletrap ford van for the thoroughbred racehorse with the royal pedigree . yes , it was disconcerting that zippy chippy hadn’t won any of his first 20 starts . but monserrate chalked that up to poor training . he figured a horse whose family tree included man o’ war , native dancer and the father of the greatest thoroughbred of them all—secretariat—was destined to become as well known , perhaps even better known , than his famous ancestors . if ever there was a horse born to run , it was zippy .
always allowing red to eat first , zippy also refused to walk into a trailer for a summer trip to kentucky until his companion climbed on ahead .
zippy got bumped hard twice but didn ' t go down and kept challenging black rifle for the lead before losing by a nose ,
thomas said .
zippy ' s jockey , juan rohena , was screaming at the stewards booth , ' foul , foul , foul , call an inquiry . '
the more people said zippy wouldn ' t win , the more felix said , ' he ' s going to win . you watch . '
it was raining on the august day when i visited old friends at cabin creek . the farm was beautiful anyway . it was chilly , too , but the horses didn ' t seem to mind . i found myself wondering out loud in the presence of pepper whether zippy chippy , reluctant race horse , laughing stock , butt of the jokes of a thousand railbirds , had at last found the perfect home .
our mission is to provide dignified retirement and to raise awareness of racehorse needs ,
says joann pepper . she owns and manages cabin creek with her husband , mark . they welcomed zippy chippy aboard in 2010 . negotiations to secure the horse took almost two years before monserrate settled for $ 5 , 000 , potential rights to a disney movie and the comfort of knowing that the animal was in good hands .
well , 10 , 000 people showed up because zippy had fans ,
thomas said .
as the crowd chants ,
ten , nine , eight , ' somewhere around four or five , zippy starts eating the grass and must ' ve thought , ' man , this grass is really nice . '
felix thought that zippy’s performance and behavior were the result of poor training , but he underestimated the horse , who by turns was stubborn , playful and lazy .
zippy chippy earned over $ 30 , 000 during his career , finishing second eight times ( once by a head , in race # 87 ) and third 12 times . he came in dead last 18 times and next to last in 24 races . monserrate admitted to keeping his horse by entering in allowance fields , which feature better talent but don ' t permit horses to be purchased as is the case in claiming races .
since arriving in scott county on friday , zippy has not lived up to his reputation as a biting , ill - mannered cuss . he and his paddock mate , red down south , stick close to each other . never one to do anything first , zippy watched as red took the initiative to roll in the dust .
“they bumped along like that – the cocky , underachieving racehorse and his cockeyed , optimistic trainer … they were standing in front of the horse’s stall when felix turned to pick up a bucket , and zippy turned to pick up felix . the trainer found himself suspended in midair , yelling for help and flailing his arms around behind him , trying to get zippy to release him . zippy had picked him up by the collar and was holding him a foot off the ground . felix’s angry shouts at the horse to put him down were answered by the loud laughs of a few track people watching the two of them perform this shed - row slapstick act . the louder felix screamed , the more raucous the laughter of the bystanders , many of them workers now coming over from other barns . eventually zippy got tired of the gag and put his owner down . ‘he’s a strong horse , ’ felix said , now that his feet were back on terra firma . ‘he can hold you up for a long time . ’ forget man o’ war and bold ruler ; zippy chippy’s most influential ancestors may have been laurel and hardy ! ”
he should have been better than he was ,
explains thomas , adding that zippy ' s lineage includes famous racehorses northern dancer , native dancer and war admiral .
“not everybody can be a winner , ” zippy’s trainer would say . “he wanna run . he’s always ready to go . but he don’t always go too good . ”
“he had enough time to rub his itchy nose on the near pole , stop to catch his breath at the half - pole , and take a leak on the quarter pole before entering the stretch , ” thomas writes . “with number one on his silks and at number one in the program , zippy chippy , number one in the hearts of the faithful at trackside , had come in a disappointing last by four yards more than a football field . ”
other incidents weren’t as funny . there was the day zippy cornered felix in his stall for an hour . he held a monserrate relative hostage for nearly four hours . felix’s partner , emily , called zippy “a miserable thing who wants everything done for him when he wants it , makes faces , bites , kicks , and is not very intelligent . ”
on april 10 , 2004 , zippy made his 100th start at the three county fair in northampton , mass . he finished dead last and was retired in 2010 to cabin creek in greenfield center , n . y . , a satellite of the old friends organization . zippy finished second eight times and third 12 times , earning $ 30 , 572 .
“he was owned primarily by felix monserrate , who got zippy in a trade for a pick - up truck , and raced him throughout his entire career , ” pepper said .
zippy was eventually demoted from finger lakes to a fairground in massachusetts . his final loss came in 2004 . he broke from the starting gate , pivoted toward the grandstand and bowed to his fans , like roy rogers’ horse , trigger . after stretching his winless streak ( against horses ) to 0 - 100 , zippy retired to his stall for a nap .
a few minutes prior to post time zippy was the 2 - 1 favorite , but by the time the gates opened he was the 7 - 2 second choice . on the bullring
zippy was now also known as “cellar dweller . ” he got a 60 - day suspension , setting off protests in the sports pages and among fans . he was their underdog .
on march 17 , 2001 , which just happened to be st . patrick ' s day , zippy raced the appropriately named paddy ' s laddy , a harness horse in a match race at freehold raceway . after spotting the pacer an eight of a mile zippy ran down the standardbred to prevail by a head and notch the first victory of his career . in august of 2001 zippy headed another promotion , this time he raced humans . it happened in rochester , at the rochester red wings baseball stadium and involved player from the team . it seems there were three , roughly forty yard dashes , the first in true zippy fashion , he dwelt at the start and was soundly beaten . the other two he reportedly won .
they ' re inseparable , they roll around in the mud and dirt together ,
thomas said .
but zippy is still a star , bringing people to the farm .
old friends hopes to put together a fund - raiser using zippy ' s name . there ' s a plan to challenge volunteers to raise pledges and then have those volunteers ride a zip line at the mega cavern in louisville , a former limestone mine with 17 miles of underground passageways . the event might be called
zip for zippy
or some such thing .
felix was heartened , and offered yet another explanation for zippy’s late starts : “he just want to see the other horses out in front of him before he run , ” he said .
just a month before zippy ' s arrival , another new york - bred horse , red down south , was added to cabin creek ' s stable . the pair have become inseparable .
it’s not like zippy’s demeanor changed — he could still be cranky and mean , and his job performance wasn’t getting better . but for felix and his family , the horse was a keeper .
during his time with monserrate , zippy once held his owner off the ground by his shirt , and in a different instance spent 60 minutes cornering him in a stall , according the newspaper .
felix grabbed him yelling , ' i don ' t want him to win this way . ' the inquiry was overturned , as most are , and zippy lost by a nose .
he comes out of the gate , turns to the crowd and almost does a bow before taking off ,
thomas said .
zippy knew he was the star of the show .
and zippy is often called the
losingest horse in history ,
but he can ' t take the futility record title . thatt belongs to thrust , who had 105 losing starts in the 1950s .
in the meantime , the public can come see zippy through august at old friends , where there are tours at 10 a . m . and at 1 and 3 p . m . each day .
zippy managed to lose most of those races under the guidance of his trainer , felix monserrate , who stuck with his horse even though others suggested he send it out to pasture , sopranos - style .
zippy chippy started his career at belmont park , he had some decent pedigree in his line and there probably was some expectation he would become a decent racehorse . his first seven races were on the nyra circuit , five at belmont and two at aqueduct , all maiden special weight races . his jockeys included the aforementioned mike smith , julio pezua , robbie davis , jose santos , jorge chavez and richard migliore . even when he shipped to finger lakes he had the services of kevin whitley and leslie hulet , two legends at the farmington oval .
monserrate would bear the scars from that chomping on his back for the rest of his life . ( in his never - ending quest to be a contrarian , zippy bit the back rather than the hand that fed him . ) those teeth marks would serve as reminders of the thoroughbred’s legendary stubbornness , a trait that would exasperate his trainer time and time again . but zippy’s desire to stop and smell the roses ( occasionally during races ) rather than run for the roses also would endear him to monserrate and the horse’s legion of fans . the more zippy lost , the more people loved him . he clearly didn’t subscribe to hall of fame football coach vince lombardi’s mantra that “winning isn’t everything ; it’s the only thing . ” in zippy’s case , winning was a never thing . and he was quite content with that .
the thing was , zippy was felix ' s pet , which broke every rule of horse racing . but their lives were intertwined forever and zippy became the highlight of felix ' s life ,
says thomas .
it was a wonderful sort of relationship about a man and a horse , neither of which was very good a what they did , but it didn ' t stop them from trying .
last june , felix monserrate died from heart problems and pneumonia . he was 72 . one of his greatest wishes was to see zippy’s life , like other legends of the track , memorialized in the movies .
it was at great barrington , mass . , and zippy ' s running , and he finishes second ,
blowen said .
but there ' s an inquiry into the horse that won .
“his name is red down south , and he ' s 12 , and the minute they got together , they became best friends , and they have not been separated since , ” pepper said . “so he ' s lucky . it ' s really the truest horse relationship that i ' ve ever seen . zippy loves red and respects him , and red looks out for zippy . it ' s beautiful . ”
and zippy actually has won . publicity stunts in 2001 included a 50 - yard dash win over rochester red wings baseball player darnell mcdonald and a victory in a race versus harness horse paddy ' s laddy .
monserrate was always able to look beyond zippy’s recalcitrance and shortcomings . “say you have three children , ” he explained . “one is a lawyer , doing well . the other , a doctor , very , very successful . but the third one , not so smart , so he’s working at mcdonald’s . what do you do ? ignore him ? course not . he’s the one who needs your help . that’s zippy . ”
