Happy Thursday,
It is so pretty outside this morning. It is cool, brisk…yet totally comfortable and gorgeous! This is my second December in Lexington…so I gather this is their normal weather pattern for this time of the year. I rather like it!
Please note how my paddock fence is so white from the frost!
If I say so myself, I look PRETTY AS A PICTURE! (Blush, Blush!)
Sarah just stopped by to see ME a few moments ago…and I was giving her tons of kisses. She was on holiday for a few days recently…so I wanted to be sure to personally ‘welcome her back’!
People are quite busy now getting ready for the holidays. In the main office here at Lane’s End…the staff is decorating and putting up the Christmas Tree. Hmmm! I wonder if they will have MY ORNAMENT on it? Hope so! I’ll have to check this out!
Wishing you a lovely day!
With Love,
Hugs to All~

I’ve had your Christmas Ornament on the top of my Livingroom TV for about 6 weeks now. That’s where it will stay when it is not on the tree.
Terry Crow
@Diana S-I guess that the satellite dish does not distinguish us rednecks enough. Therefore, you might be a redneck if you ever played limbo to get under the door of the outhouse. This could also apply to a pay toilet. Always glad to add a bit of class to the proceedings.
Trisha
Yes you are pretty as a picture. So far this has been a mild December.
I can’t wait to receive your Christmas ornament I ordered. You will be in a place of honor on my tree and I will treasure it always.
Love hugs and kisses gorgeous

Zenyatta,

I just love this beautiful girl, and the facebook updates on her.

@ Terry & Diana S – I have two satellite dishes and I’m definitely not rich. Don’t know why I had to have two (I still don’t get HRTV) and there’s not a lot of space on the roof of my tiny house. Rich rednecks may even have an outhouse bigger than my house!!!

Hi Z
Everyday we hear from you is special. LOVE the picture. Your ears are just too cute!
Amy Beacha
Hello Zenyatta! You look really well and it’s a good picture. Enjoy the Christmas ornament(s)! Best Wishes for A Happy Holiday Season!
Ida Lee
Good Day Beautiful Girl!!! I was thinking about the great moments in racing of 2011 and quite frankly none of them lives up to your 09 BC Classic when you made your signature move to the outside and then kicked major butt to win the Classic. Wow..I just miss you so much on the track. Racing is not the same without you Sweetheart.

Hey Zenny I remember last years ferocious debates about who has to become HOTY around this time of year. You `re still Hoty for me.
Love you Zenny.

You are such a beautiful girl, Zenny. I just love your ears. You are always so alert and interesed in everything. You always make me smile and warm my heart.
Sharyn ~ Vermont
Beautiful picture of you captured by Sarah! How lucky is she to be the recipient of your kisses!! Gotta love those ears – they say it all! Have a wonderful day and keep warm…..

Dearest Z – you really are a sight to behold. Those beautiful eyes and such a kind face. I showed a friend of mine the poster I bought of your painting and all she could say was WOW….what a beautiful creature. Oh and to all of Z’s website fans I just wanted to mention that I just finished Horseracings Divas. It was a terrific brief look at all of the GREAT ladies that earned the title Horse of the Year – there were 12 and they were all so deserving of the title – something special each in their own right. The great IMP from 1899(yes her name was IMP) – she ran 171 times (that’s madness) – won 65 times, was 2nd 35 times and 3rd 29 times. So I decided after reading the book to watch some reruns of the more current stars – Azeri, Lady’s Secret, Rachel and of course the great one – BIG Z. All amazing. I enjoyed the YouTube video called Rachel’s Historical Campaign. Boy she sure was something when at the top of her game. Just annihilated her competition. My oh my – Zenyatta, Rachel, Azeri, Lady’s Secret and all the one’s before – just pure GREATNESS – thanks for your great stories – you’ve all made grown men weep I’m sure….

You ARE pretty as a picture, beautiful Queen Z. You look so happy to be out in the beautiful crisp frosty air! Lane’s End seems to be the perfect place for you at this time in your life. Please thank Sarah (give her more kisses :) for sharing this beautiful picture with us!
Speaking of YOUR ornament, I ordered one from YOUR shop and it arrived yesterday. I must say YOUR shop has great service! Can’t wait to hang the mini YOU and YOUR Mike on my tree :)
