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~

Such Wonderful wonderful news!! You are so healthy and so beautiful. Your foul will be lucky to have such a great Mom. Congrats to Bernie too…my my my isn’t he turning out to be a talented stud? He had a great crop of 2-3years olds this racing season. ( and your baby sis isn’t to shabby either. ) Enjoy your summer, I look ahead to reading all about your foul. Great job and high hoof to you too.

Congratulations to Zenny and Team Z! Hooray for strong heart beats! And just when I thought the Mosses couldn’t get any more fabulous than they already are, I read that they will wait for the actual birth day to find out if baby Zendini is a filly or colt!!! I LOVE surprises!

How awesome Zenny! So very happy for you
and all of your special “Connections.”
Went to Hollywood Park last Sunday and I
kept looking over toward your Barn 55 and
missing you. It was a beautiful day, just
how you look in your grazing photo. :)
Sending continued love and blessings to
you and yours Zen!

Congratulations to Zenyatta and Team Zenyatta!!! Z take care of yourself and enjoy your time on the farm. Can’t wait for the arrival of your foal next year. ♥ ya!! :)
Margaret
Z I was trying to figure out your due date. Seems like you were bred back around Apr 1. So I think the due date will be from the third week in Feb to mid Mar. Pregnancies go from 330-360 days. Maybe we’ll hear when your milk comes in–that should give everyone a heads up.
Susie Cartwright
Way to go Z!! Love You
Stephanie Quilichini

Congrats to Team Zenyatta! Am glad you are not going to find out the sex. Praying that all goes well and that the Queen and her foal stay healthy!

Your little “hints” gave it away! I knew you must be in foal! You and Bernie are going to have a BEAUTIFUL baby! What fun to wait to find out if it is a filly or a colt! Congratulations, Gorgeous Queen!

YaaaaHoooo!!!
Roberta Smith
Well Wink, Wink! I am so, so very happy for you, your team and the Moss’! Terrific news! Can’t wait till early next year to see if it is a colt or a filly! I am so happy today to hear this news! Now go and munch as much as you want…you deserve it…good job Bernie! I love you both!!!!
Kim
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!! Wonderful news Zenny. I know your team is on cloud nine today. Now about that baby shower!! I was having a drab day at work but this news has perked me up. So happy for you and Team Z!
Abigail from Montreal
This is just wonderful news, Zenny! I’m so happy for you and the whole team Z family. I’m happy for Bernie too, even though I know that it’s really going to be your role from here on in. WOW! I’m really happy not to know the foal’s sex — that’s what I did when I was carrying my son and it made everything VERY exciting….except for all the green & yellow baby clothes, that is!
It made me cry too — partly because you and Team Z have been so gracious and elegant in your timing and in all the adorable hints along the way. And partly because this is such a milestone in your life, Zenny.
You look beautiful and those dapples are glowing.
I love you, big girl!
Dawn Deems
CONGRATS TEAM ZENYATTA!!! She looks go great in the photo above. Looks like she’s put on a lot of weight. Praying everything goes smoothly, and I think it’s so neat that the Mosses don’t find out the foal’s gender ahead of time. There aren’t that many surprises in life… XOXOXO
Tonya Reems
