Eclipse Awards go to KER-fed Horses

January 19, 2010

Zenyatta, the Thoroughbred race mare who is unbeaten in 14 race starts, earned the 2009 Eclipse Award for Older Female, an honor she also claimed for her performance in 2008. Earning more than $3.3 million in 2009, Zenyatta was perfect in five starts, a record that included beating a strong field of males in the Breeders' Cup Classic. The mare is trained by John Shirreffs. Informed Decision, winner of the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint, claimed six wins in seven starts in 2009 and earned almost $1.5 million. Informed Decision earned an Eclipse Award in the Female Sprinter division. She is trained by Jonathan Sheppard. Both Sheppard and Shirreffs trust feeds manufactured by KER Team Member Hallway Feeds to fuel their champions' efforts.
