My husband has been keeping up with you Z along with me.Of course he tried to be manly about it.But he got home just in time to see the last 3 awards when they called your name he jumped up and said YES.Then we the moss’s where talking I looked over and he was crying just as much as I was.God keep you and your family safe

Congratulations Zenyatta and everyone! Finally, the recognition that you so rightly deserve. I’d hug you if I could.

i would like to say something to mike smith, i watched your press conference. you were so down. you said it was your fault. i was a trainer once. i have seen shoemaker, longden, pincay, and mccharon. i have watched every race of zenyattas. all the moves you had to make. you never once made a mistake. i saw you last night and was so glad to hear what you said. you love her with all your being and i thank for all the golrious rides. you belong with the best.

Congratulations to Mario! This couldn’t have happened without him. He knew how to stabilize Zenyatta, to keep her looking gorgeous, manage all her daily needs. Looks like he didn’t go to Eclipse Awards but stayed at H.P. holding down the fort. Thank you Mario and Carmen for being so centered and grounded and so “there” for Zenyatta!

Tears streamed down my face when they announced your name for HOTY. You deserve this award for many reasons, but mostly for being such a unique and beautiful animal both inside and out. May the rest of your life be peaceful and filled with happiness.

Still basking in the afterglow of yesterday’s victory. Our Queen went out a winner in a very classy way. The smile still hasn’t left my face. To think my hubby and I saw you at Churchill…tearing down that backstretch…it’s something I will never forget.

I just looked at the slide-show of the Eclipse Awards on Blood Horse. The pictures were great !
The last two pictures were priceless !

You did it!!! I cried when I read the 1st announcement on hpiTV. So happy & thrilled for our beloved sweetheart. Thanks to God & all the voters who went with Zenyatta. Very happy for Team Z. Like other fans, I could not bear to watch re-runs of her final race until now. I only wish John got the the Trainer award. He deserves it & more!!
Timmy Todd M.A,
OK,,,,,,,,,,,,,,OK How about an amusement park called Zenyattaland????? Go with me here…. It would have rides that go fast and rides that dance…. Food like peppermint shakes, oatmeal,, carrot cake and wash it all down with Guiness Stout( Alcoholic or Non)or the “bubbley,.” Lots of green pastures and starting gates everywhere…. A winner’s circle( second home just behind the shedrow), for photography. The Queen could be in a post-parade everyday and then they could build a hill on which Ladyship could graze and oversee the place like Walt did in his Main Street apartment. What else….Oh Need I forget, a hands-on tackroom, paddocks for touring, and classrooms for teaching how to read the form,(and how to interpret the writings/rantings of anyone whom voted for Blame for HOY),. Racing Offices for esthetic and of course a finish line for the way out…. I can see it now….children,( adults), crying when they have to leave Zenyattaland. Oh Little Big Girl….You did us all so proud…. You ran so hard at Blame and we all saw the lightening coming out of your ears… We saw you look the colt in the eye… We felt you and your spirit…. To the Transcendental, thoughful, and everso talented Barn – 55 you worked Magick and we all are in awe of the presentation/manifestation you have done…..God bless all of you,( Jerry, anne, John, Dottie, Mario, Mikey, and Stevie…and thanks for entertaining the notion of a place called Zenyattaland! :)
There is no life I know that compares with pure imagination! Zenyatta is pure imagination~! Where’s Wonka?

Zenyatta Way to Go. I watched the program and was screaming in my livingroom. I am so happy for you. You so deserve this award. Please tell Mrs. Moss and Dottie they looked beautiful. I cried when Mr. Moss read the poem it was so beautiful. I am crying now. Just happy tears for you sweet girl. I sure hope to see you someday in person. We did not have school today but an inservice. I was telling all the teachers that you won. I will tell my students tomorrow. I know they will want to send you pictures. I also received my Zenyatta blanket today. It is so beautiful just like you. Good night sweet Lady Z. I love you. Hugs and kisses from Shari in Ohio
Yvonne and Maurice Kirby
Congratulations Zenyatta. Wow, what an awesome night. I have quite a few of your pictures hung throughout our aprartment, one of your posters framed and hung in our entryway and last night, I put another poster on our grandfather clock, wore a Zenyatta T-Shirt and hat and waited for you to be announced Horse of the Year. You are so deserving. Remember you are the horse of a lifetime and we will never see another like you. You are an angel in disguise. Love you so.
Bonnie
