Previously undefeated—winning all 19 races in her career—the six year-old race horse Zenyyatta lost her final contest against some of the world’s best male equines in  Breeders’ Cup Classic that took place on Saturday, November 5th. Not only was it a great disappointment for all her fans and trainers, that was a shocking news for all beer fans as well.

According to news reports, GUINNESS, the world’s best-selling stout, would accept Zenyyatta and her trainer John Shirreffs as well as its owners Jerry and Ann Moss in St. James’s Gate Brewery in Dublin if she won the competition.

«If she notches her 20th victory, Guinness is offering a trip for the mare, her trainer and owners to visit the St. James’s Gate Brewery to celebrate her career, her official retirement and her love of GUINNESS», states the press release by Diageo, owner of GUINESS brand.

Shirreffs, Zenyyatta’s trainer, is known to open a bottle of Guinness and pour it into a bowl for the horse. According to him, she will only drink the dark Irish stout.

«It was a fairy tale and it didn’t end the way everybody wanted it to end,» Shirreffs said Sunday. «That’s what I feel badly about. However, Zenyyatta is pretty happy out there and she will be happy.»
