Hello Everyone,
I truly want to thank all of you for the heartfelt wishes and love you have expressed to me since hearing ‘my not in foal at this moment’ news! You are so sweet and gracious in your kindness to nurture ME at this time! I so appreciate all of your concern!
I am really doing fine. In reality, this is not an uncommon thing to happen with a maiden mare like I am. It happened early in the breeding season so I will have ample time to be bred again and get in foal. As I mentioned before, so many things in life don’t always go as planned. Upon reflection, I know with my career, it would have been great to run at 2 or early 3…but I just wasn’t ready. Fortunately, MY TEAM knew that and worked with me on my own individual developmental schedule.
In relation to this current news, it is simply a minor set-back…but I will be fine. I guess I just love to do things at my own pace!
Please remember, I AM A GREAT FINISHER! Once I get into the rhythm of things…I have a history of repeating the pattern successfully…19 times in a ROW! Now that thought is just TOO CUTE!
Again, thank you…ALL OF YOU…for the love and concern you have so kindly expressed to ME!
Have a wonderful day!
With Love,
Hugs to All~

Dear Queen Zenyatta –
CONGRATULATIONS are in order again, dear sweet Z! I just read on Bloodhorse.com that ZENYATTA is the only HORSE to ever receive the William H. May award in New Orleans last month for her accomplishments in racing. WOW! Another feather in the bonnet of our girl:

@Susan and the 2nd graders: LOVE the VIDEO. There’s something magical about it. My Shih-Tzu who sleeps til noon every day came awake and alert and excited when he heard the kids singing! It’s infectious.

I’m sure Team Z would like to read your card even if it arrives after the cutoff.
@ Susan: Thanks so much to you and your second graders for sharing that amazing birthday video you made for Zenyatta. I especially loved hearing Zenny neigh and then start eating her cake! Fantastic job!
@Margie: Congratulations on placing the winning bid on Zenyatta’s beautiful Moneigh! Very exciting! I’m happy for you and for the horses at ReRun that will benefit from this very special art auction.

Zenny, I know your “being in foal” will happen in due time and at your own pace. I will pray for a better result next time. Luv ya.
Robyn Mullhausen
Awwww, Zenny, what a beautiful photo. Glad you are feeling fine. You’ve always been a lady who likes to start at the back of the pack and take off to show your best moves. You will have a beautiful healthy foal next year when the time is right. Stay healthy and happy and I know you are getting the best of care.
Camille Medley
My heart goes out to you, Zenyatta. It was just not your time, and that’s OK. If at first you don’t succeed, try again, right? Always in your own time, Queen Z….greatness cannot be rushed….don’t worry, God knows what He is doing (he created you)!!! Best wishes as you and Bernardini have a “2nd date” very soon!! I love you!! =)
Diane
Dear Zenyatta,
Sorry to hear about the loss of your foal. Keeping fingers and toes crossed for better luck with next.
Paul
Zenyatta, you are definitely good at making comebacks. Once again, sorry about your no longer being in foal. If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. If you take that attitude, you will be in foal again before you know it.
