Good Morning Everyone,
It’s been a busy, busy few days…for sure! Today is the SUPER BOWL…and we are very excited. P.Q. and I have been really looking over the stats for the GAME and the strategies we would apply to try and decide WHO we think will win! Oh, how I love SPORTS!
Well, after much thought and analysis…I really can’t decide who I like the best. I guess it comes down to just LOVING THOSE ADORABLE FANS from Green Bay who will WEAR THOSE BIG HUNKS OF CHEESE ON THEIR HEADS.
As an individual who LOVES the way all of my FANS SUPPORTED ME…I must say that is what is so fabulous with GREEN BAY! So…I’ve gotta’ love them for this reason.
Speaking of fans…yesterday was amazing. My TEAM, my FANS and Mrs. Chenery are so special! The ceremony was delayed a bit…until after the 6th race. So sorry we did not know this in advance to alert you. I guess this is part of LIVE ACTION on TV. But…everything was fabulous and the day was one to remember! I will share photos John took with you soon.
For now, Dottie did get the special YOU TUBE link from Santa Anita…HRTV for YOU!
Click HERE! Please enjoy!
AND…HAPPY SUPER BOWL SUNDAY! I better go get my CHEESE HEAD HAT on…to watch the game! (I love this TEAM SPIRIT FAN ENTHUSIASM stuff! It is GREAT FUN!)
With Love,
Hugs to ALL~

Hi Zen,
You both look like you love to chat over the fence. What a relaxing way to spend a day.
I have to go cook snacks for the guys for the game. I am going to go on a hunt for any new pictures of you.
Love you Zen.

I wouldn’t miss my daily dose of Zenyatta for anything. Whoever writes this is a genius. I got to be in the paddock last summer at Del Mar while she was schooling and I think she’s the best thoroughbred ever.
Kitei
I’m so glad you don’t have to wear all sorts of padding for YOUR sport!
Tatia Johnson
Zenny, I’m not a pro football fan, but if there was a picture of you with a cheese head hat on, I think I’d have to make it my iPhone wallpaper or maybe my fb profile picture. That would be TOO CUTE!
Congrats on your award yesterday. You deserve it!

Go Packers! — From the video yesterday it looks like you might have had a little fun rolling in the mud!! Our horses love to do that, especially right after they’ve been groomed — too funny! Congratulations on all of your awards — are Mr & Mrs Moss adding a trophy room to their home?? Bet they’ve run out of space for all the awards.
Sarah Powell
Great to be able to see the award – thanks Dottie for all your determination and hard work to make it happen – only two horses ever made me cry just for the sheer joy of watching them run – how fitting that they are now joined together with the award and the poster (can’t wait for mine to arrive! Can’t wait to see more pictures of Zenny – love to see the videos! Again, congrats to all!!
Maribel

Hi there – yesterday was wonderful… brought a tear to my eye. I spent the evening reading “Secretariat’s Meadow” and watched the bonus feature on Secretariat’s DVD “Heart of a Champion”. I was very touched by the parallels between Zenyatta & Secretariat when it comes to charisma, personality and star power. Two Amazing horses with a wonderful connection – Vox Populi!!!
Henrietta Wolfe
But Z, what about the fans with the terrible towels??? You gotta love them also. (*_*) YOU will be adorable with cheese on your lovely head. Get us a photo. The ceremony was wonderful and your team looked great. I love you all. You looked stunning running around with your friends. You truly are a hoot. You,dear lady, enjoy the game. Don’t eat the cheese until it’s all over. I LOVE YOU!!! xoxoxoxoxxo

If Uncle Mo can have a tux, Zenny can have a cheesehead!

Nancy Eklund-Hunsicker
Love these posts and so very, very happy happy that Z is settling into a relaxed farm routine. Love that she has a pasture buddy!!
Shannon From Cool
Maybe you and P.Q. can play a little touch football in your paddock today. Ask the others with you, how ’bout it!?
teresa
You and Pirate Queen look lovely enjoying the day. What an awesome friend for you, Z. No matter who wins the game today, I love seeing folks act nice about it, and not get nasty with the smack talk. Life is too short to not embrace and smile at something everyday. That’s why I like reading your diary,it makes me smile everyday. <3
Pam
Aw, Zenyatta, you picked the wrong team! But I respect your stand and I definitely want to see a photo of you with cheese on your head. I guess it does beat twirling a towel. Too bad you and your buddy PQ can’t pop into a Vegas race book and try your hand at some of the interesting prop bets being offered. Well, enjoy the game. Congratulations on yesterday’s inaugural Vox Populi award too!
Dmama
Yesterday’s award was wonderful. The delay had me thinking that there was something wrong with the feed……….. but patience and we saw it :-) Ms. Chennery is a living legend, just like you. So very happy that she saw the appreciation of the fans (team Z knows this already).Thanks for the post and the picture. Still wondering what Mario had to say when he saw your “play” video and you were covered in dirt????
Becky
Zenny: It was an AMAZING celebration for you yesterday at Santa Anita!!! Team Zenyatta, Penny Chenery, and Kate Tweedy
were absolutely the best! (Even taking extra time to sign autographs – whew! Just
made it!)You would have been so delighted to see the thousands of fans who showed up to honor you for the prestigious Vox Populi Award! To think that an icon of your sport, Ms. Chenery, thinks so highly of you to give you the 1st award ever! Wow!
You should be so proud! As always, Team Zenyatta is just the most gracious in all of racing! They really give us fans a unique opportunity to be a part of something so very special, and please tell them how much we appreciate them!!! I actually got a chance to see your award up close (so close, I got a photo with it!) and let me tell you, it is absolutely beautiful, just like YOU!!! The only thing missing yesterday was you, Zen, but we did get to see some wonderful video of you, and you look so happy at Lane’s End! Congratulations Zenny! We LOVE you!!!
Terry
Zenny, Glad you like the Packers Fans, we in Wisconsin really know about being fans!!! Totally enjoyed the presentation yesterday!! Especially the footage from the farm (WE can never get enough videos of you and your pals)! Also, it was so awesome to see your family in The Winners Circle with Zazu!! She is a beauty!! Go Pack!!!
Julie Ann in O.C. CA.
Dear Zenny, Yesterday at Santa Anita was wonderful! We all turned out because of YOU, your wonderful team and the honor you received,the Vox Populi. I’ve become a fan ONLY because of your great spirit and heart.
Como siempre te mando ABRAZOTES y saludos a Pirate Queen tu amiguita. Julie Ann
Sue
Dear Zen: I love ya! PQ looks so cute too–she looks very kind, just like you! You are so lucky to have found a gentle friend. I read that the Lane’s End staff chose your first friends very carefully and did NOT want any “domineering mares.” Looks like they made the right choice. I can’t wait to watch the video of the ceremony yesterday. I have always loved Secretariat and to have you on the same plane as Secretariat–that’s just heavenly :)

Well Zenyatta! You have won your Superbowl!! It took a team, but one to put their mark in racing history! That is you Zenyatta!!! I watched the clip of Ann accepting your award from Mrs. Chenery. A warm hug to you!
Charlotte
I watched the ceremony yesterday and several times since then. What a wonderful day for everyone. The video of you Zenny was so sweet. You look so happy and that makes us happy.
Sue Fredrick
Zen, oh YYYYYYYEEEEEEESSSSSSSS, you a VERY intelligent and descriminating horse. I would just die to see you in a cheesehead with holes cut out for those magnificent ears. TOO CUTE. Your Vox Popoli award is stunningly beautiful, that georgeous head of Secretariat’s. You two are sure the royal pair. Well enjoy your day with the girls,it sure seemed like you were having fun yesterday all muddy. Well now you’re finally able to do what horses luv to do. Enjoy. GO PACKERS!!!! Luv and kisses on your nose.
barbara
Beautiful Zenyatta, I watched the ceremony honoring you as the first “Vox Populi” well deserved. I saw your Dottie also honoring you with your initial Z on her sleeve. Wonderful! So much love for you.
Sandy, New Jersey
Love the photo of you and Pirate Queen! Which friend was it that you were playing so enthusiastically with in the video at the award ceremony yesterday?
Pam Zacek,
thank you again, for sharing, history, with us, Team Z, what a great award, go watch your team Z, and have a great day. you two look, great in the field together, best buddies.
Jo in CO
Wonderful picture of you with Pirate Queen, Z! Of course, you are The Queen in residence. I’m trying to imagine you with a cheese hat on…now that would be a priceless picture. I was so proud of you and your connections receiving the Secretariat Award yesterday. My heart just swelled with love and joy. And loved seeing the new video at Lane’s End! Enjoy the Super Bowl!
