Good Morning,
I hope each of you had a wonderful, restful, and peaceful holiday! This day is also a special time to remember all that MEMORIAL DAY truly represents as well.
Everything at the farm is going very, very well. I want to share with you the fabulous day I have had so far. This morning, my vets came to check me and… YES, I am eating for TWO! As of this morning, I have had what is technically called my ’60 day check-up’. I am happily IN FOAL! All is A-OK! My pregnancy is progressing nicely and the baby has a very strong heartbeat! YIPPEE!
I must say I am so excited and so are all of my Team and Family members! This is such terrific news! Bernie and I are going to be parents!
As is the Moss’ policy, we are not going be fetal-sexing to determine if the foal is a colt or filly. My owners never do this with any of their mares. Part of the fun, in their opinion, is the anticipation. We will wait and BE SURPRISED!
Now, I’m off to graze and enjoy the rest of the day! I’ll fill you in on more details as we go along! Thank you so much for all of your understanding and patience the last few months on this topic! I so appreciate your kindness and support!
I’m sending each of you a HIGH HOOF! IT IS TRULY A DAY OF GREAT HAPPINESS!
With Love,
Hugs to All~

Congratulations, my sweet, beautiful Zenny! When I came home and read your news, I nearly jumped for joy! I know a lot of people have been expecting it, but to hear it confirmed is soooo sweet! I am so happy for you and Bernie and Team Z. You look as beautiful as ever and I know you’ll be the best mother ever. Loving you in Lexington :-)

Dear Ingrid: I think Animal Kingdom should like the distance. I must say though, I’m rooting for Mucho Macho Man. I hope he has some good racing luck this time. Hugs, J.B.

OMG this is the greatest news I’ve heard all day!!! I hope you, Bernardini, and your foal all stay healthy!!!

Prayers, prayers, and more prayers for a healthy, happy pregnancy! I have goosebumps. BEST wishes to all, especially Queen Z.

My beautiful Queen,
My thoughts have been on you lately, and I have been talking to my family about your trials in the process of becoming a mother. I had a sneaking suspision you were in foal! My horse, Clever Reign, is dealing with a severe stifle injury and EPM right now. Keeping him updated on you seems to be giving him some hope, as he is your biggest equine fan. This little ray of sunshine is something that truly made my day today after an especially difficult morning.
With all of our love and hope,
Shaun S. Basch, LVT & Clever Reign

That is such wonderful news and it must’ve been so exciting to hear the heartbeat. I hope you’ll post lots of pictures in the months to come so we can watch your belly grow. In the second picture where you’re grazing in that beautiful green pasture, you look so content and happy… LE must be Horse Heaven! By my count, February will be THE month when your little filly/colt should make her/his appearance, right? So until then, your job is to eat plenty of good food, take your vitamins and keep healthy. I figure you’re now stabled with other moms to be, so good luck to all of you. Fingers (and hooves) crossed for a whole herd of healthy babies early next year. And congratulations to you, Bernardini and your little Triple Crown winner (I’m kind of a dreamer). *Drums fingers on desk* … is it February yet?

What wonderful news!! Even though we suspected, it’s great to get the confirmation and know that you are safely past the most risky part! Congratulations to you and Bernie and all of Team Z and your Lane’s End friends. I know they will take good care of you, and that’s what really matters. The pictures are great, and we will all look forward to continued updates. Heartfelt thanks to Dottie for reporting with such class and for keeping us “in the loop” as always. Love from your Ohio friend, Sandy.

Zenny, I’m late to the party, but the love and best wishes for a wonderful pregnancy and healthy filly or colt have always been there ever since you moved to Lane’s End and we knew what would be coming. Thank you to all involved in the loving care you have given, and give now, to this mighty mare. And to the Moss family, heartiest congratulations. To Dottie and John, I’m sure your hearts are full of joy. To David I., thank you for finding the precious angel we call Zenyatta. Oh happy day, oh yes it is!
Sharon Call
@Lane’s End. Thanks so much for doing what you do so well!!
Z, I am so happy I’m acting the fool and enjoying it so much. Doing the happy chair dance, a few tears and lots of big silly grins. This baby will have more aunts AND uncles than any foal ever born before. I just can’t wait to travel this path with you, your team in CA and KY and all of the Z fans out there. Happy Days!!!

The news we have all been praying for! SO very happy for You, Bernie, Your Wonderful Connections and for all of US who love you. xoxo
I think we should all donate $1.00 or more (based on what/if you can) to Old Friends, Tornado relief efforts or another chaity, in Zennys name…As a baby shower gift:) :) :)
Sandy Whidden
YEAH !!!!!! Wonderful news! Zenyatta, you have really made my day as you always have in the past :-)

Oh Zenyatta, Bernardini, and all of Team Z,
Just when I think the pleasure of your being is quieting, there you go with the surprises and the promise of more beauty and joy than we can imagine. Thanks to the Mosses for letting us share in this most delightful event and for all of the other opportunities that allow us to love you so much more. How lucky can we be?
Take care, have fun, eat pickles if you want.
Roseann King

Dearest Z!
YIPPEE!! iF i COULD DANCE WITH MY NEW KNEE, I WOULD! Such great news. Thank you so much for making us a part of it.
The picture of YOU in the pasture above is gorgeous. The thought occurred to me that anyone driving down the road seeing you would probably not have a clue that it is YOU!
Love and prayers for you, the baby, and ALL of Team Z, including everyone here. Thank you so much for making us ALL honorary members….
Finally some GOOD news amidst all the bad.
