Story of Mine That Bird Comes Out in Children's Graphic Novels - 135th KY Derby Winner Story – Just in Time for the Holidays

Roswell, N.M. – Nov. 4, 2011 – People say the story of Mine That Bird is the real life story of “Rocky”, except this “Rocky” has four legs. Against all odds, the remarkable little horse from Roswell, New Mexico became the winner of the 2009, 135th Kentucky Derby. Picked to run dead last, with odds against him at 50:1, Mine That Bird’s victory is the second largest upset in Kentucky Derby history.

Mine That Bird’s owners, Mark Allen and Leonard “Doc” Blach, intend to inspire readers around the world this holiday season with the Bird’s positive story of possibility, “if you believe in it and work at it, anything is possible.” The owners are releasing an inspirational and entertaining graphic novel, At The Gate, which was written by Rod McCall and Price Hall. read more
