A colleague is looking for already compiled bibliographies of fiction about horses (for youth or adult). Does anyone have any bibliographies to recommend?

I've already seen the threads in the archives about horse mysteries (2002) and horse related fiction and nonfiction (1998). I didn't find compiled lists, though.

Thanks!
