Hello Everyone!
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your friends and family. Ours at the barn was very nice.
I also want to THANK YOU for the FAN MAIL. I am truly honored. I am getting so many letters that John brought the ones from the last few days home to Dottie in a big shopping bag. Plus, I am getting flowers, horse treats, candy for my friends at the barn, homemade cookies for the crew here and lots and lots of carrots and peppermints. It is truly amazing!
Steve Andersen, who writes for the Daily Racing Form, was at the barn Tuesday and looked over that day’s mail and commented he saw letters from 11 different states, 1 from Canada and 1 from Nova Scotia. Just in one day’s delivery!
Wow! I know John and Dottie are reading all of the letters and enjoying each and every one of them. Some of you have drawn me beautiful pictures and sent photos as well. I feel truly privileged so many people have been SO KIND TO ME!
The Moss’ are also getting mail. Mike Smith commented that his mailman told him he needed a larger mailbox!
This is too much fun!
Thank you so much for caring.
Hugs to you all~

Hi Zenyatta, just look at all the world-wide love you have started with the help of John, Dottie and The Mosses. I hope you get visits from them as well as Mike Smith when you move to KY. I know you will never forget any of them just as we could never forget you. Have fun prancing around on the 5th for your adoring fans. I’m sure you will meet even more people in KY when you will be closer to us folks in the East….I pray to be one of them someday. That is unless you are “with child” and don’t feel like company. I have a feeling you would share your baby with people because you have learned to love people so much. I know you will be well protected and pampered in your beautiful new residence.
Sierra Lopez
your my favorite horse in the world!

Zen, I hope you and your family don’t take my sharing this story with you this morning in the wrong way, but I want you to know how uplifting it is to read the stories you share with us. I went out to feed this morning, bright and early, and found my 32 year old mule, Cattle Kate, unable to get up. My wonderful vet came out and we did everything we felt we could and Katie tried really hard, probably for me, to get up, but her old legs just wouldn’t let her. We decided it was best to let her go, and I said my goodbyes and came in the house to let my husband be there for her, it was just too hard for me to be there. I sat at my computer sobbing and remembering all the fun things and many years we had shared together and then I discovered you had posted a new story. When you write Zen, I can feel you and your families smiles and it makes me smile and this morning it helped me so much. I just needed to let you know. I’m not alone. I believe you have changed so many of your fan’s lives in such a positive way. Thank you for that Zenny. We all love you so much! P.S. – I know you’re not writing these posts alone beautiful girl, so please tell whoever is helping you, what a great job they are doing helping you share your story. xxoo

Ever since a fellow pro equine photographer mentioned a certain filly/mare that was “something very special” back in 2008, I’ve been following the Queen and watching history in the making.
Thank you again to the Mosses, John, Steve, Mario, Mike and all the others, for sharing this wonderful mare with us. And thank you for your generosity in so many other ways.
Thank you for your wonderful management of her racing career. She’s always come with her “A” game – and come back safe.
And thank you especially for making that chance possible for a personal visit from someone without track credentials. A day I will always remember.
Sheri
That is so cool Zenyatta! What is the adress I can send mail to? I really want to send you a picture I drew of you! Love you Zenyatta and have fun at your home!! :)

Thanks to the Mosses and team Zenyatta for sharing her with us, it is funny how a horse can give us all so much joy. She is such an amazing creature, you can feel it even through the tv screen. I want to commend you for allowing her to mature and not rushing to race her too young. It is because of your wonderful treatment and knowledge she has become the horse she is, a true wonder horse.I feel so lucky to have seen her run almost every race of her life, and even though I will never get to see her in person, I have felt her spirit it comes through even on tv ,she has helped me through the loss of my Mom, recently giving me something to look forward to. I cannot wait to see the babies, and hope you will continue to share her with us all. She is the true HOTY in many more ways then anyone will ever know, that is why so many are watching and waiting for the next message from the Queen, we love you Zenny.
