First time I am sending a message and couldn’t resist. That’s an impressive array of flowers… Derby Roses and Oaks Lilies??? Looks like it! All the best to your entire Team — thank you and your “secretary” for all your delightful updates…. and best of luck in your upcoming breeding and anticipated motherhood.

@Rachel…thank you for the excellent Zenyatta video. It reminds me why I love her, her connections and all her fans. Why is it that everytime I watch something of Zenyatta I get all teared up? Happy Valentine’s Day Zennie & to everyone here!

Dear Rachel F: Take your pic` — from any view .. . ‘Z’ is like Robert Indiana`s ‘LOVE Project,’ which he revealed in 1970. And which, in 1973, became the first of the USPS` revered ‘Love Stamps.’ http://vimeo.com/12370819 ‘Unconscious of the fact’ that from any angle, reversed or inverse, it`s still “LOVE,” she stands or rolls!!] a dream of future likenesses. Happy St. V`s Day, ‘Z.’

Dear Queen Zenyatta, HOL (Horse of a Lifetime). It wouldn’t feel right to go through the whole of Valentine’s Day without sending good wishes to Racing’s Favorite Sweetheart and all her magnificent TEAM in California, Florida and Kentucky. Next year this time, with a bit of Horse Luck, we’ll be sending Valentine’s wishes to TWO of Racing’s Favorites, the Queen and her baby!
.
@Rachel – Thank you! I can’t help applauding when I see these videos of Zenyatta. So glad I watch them when I’m by myself. Otherwise, I might be writing this from the Psych Ward as it’s clear I’m a little bit CRAZY for our Z Girl.
.
With your inspiration, and that of the Mosses, Dottie, John, Mario, Mike and the long list of others, we’ve decided to join some friends and -gulp- buy a thoroughbred race horse! Oh my God! Here goes a brand new, scary, exhilarating experience. Fortunately, we have the BEST TEAM but guess who is going out to buy BARN BOOTS – me – and to see if it’s possible to buy futures on carrots, apples and peppermints. See what you’ve done? :)
.
To everyone who posts and spreads the love, and especially to our Divine Dottie, VOZ, Thank You and Happy Valentine’s Day! And a welcoming hug to Bernardini! We’re expecting your best efforts on behalf of the Queen!

@Rachel Fabrizi
That is just fabulous! The Saturday Post Blog has a youtube video set to Club Can’t Handle Me Now that has long been one of my top favorites, but that one always makes me cry. This one makes me feel great! What a wonderful collection of photos – Happy Valentine’s Day to another Zenyatta lover <3
And Happy Valentine's Day to you too, Beautiful Zenyatta!
Trisha Veazey
Ahhh how sweet. Thank you gorgeous Z. I hope you get lots of hugs, love and kisses today and always. You know we all send you love from our hearts.
Happy Valentine’s Day Heart of our Hearts.

Zenyatta, I hope you have seen the romantic valentines for you on Bernardini’s and Little Silver Charm’s (at Old Friends) facebook pages :)

Wonderful picture especially with Sophie’s gift. Thanks and Happy St.Valentine’s Day, Zenyatta, to you and all your 2-legged and 4-legged friends and family! Love and hugs, SuzanneG
@Rachel Fabrizi — what a terrific Valentine that all of us can share. Great Job!
@Kathryn Cogswell–wonder how we would get Zenyatta’s picture on a stamp??!!
@HappyHarriet–you’re getting the BEST Valentine’s Day present EVER!!!
Kathryn Cogswell
SUZANNE G: USPS holds an appointments process . .. don`t know its ‘ins & outs,’ but hope ‘Z,’ commemorated, becomes a certainty one day. Our stamps are consistently fine art & isn`t she just that?

Happy Valentine’s Day to my beautiful Queen…I don’t watch racing as much since you retired..I just can’t seem to enjoy it anymore because you’re not there. I’m waiting to schedule my vacation to KY to coincide with you being able to meet your adoring public. I can’t wait to see you in person

The Stamp Selection Process: ‘USPS – Citizens` Stamp Advisory Committee [& Charter]. http://www.usps.com/communications/organization/csac.htm About 20 selections a year are made, detailed above, to be submitted at least three years in advance of the proposed date of issue .. .Saratoga [2002], The Triple Crown & ‘Secretariat Wins His Place On Postage Stamp [by a nose],’Article # 2156 NOV.,13,1998, http:www.thehorse.com/ViewArticle.aspx?ID=2156 have been featured as part of the ‘Celebrate The Century’ program http://www.educationworld.com/a_curr/curr092.shtml ~ Maybe timing is the key here: ‘His Chestnut Perfection,’ followed the ‘Smiley Face,’ and ‘Sesame Street,’ as one of 15 subjects depicted on stamps issued October, 1999.
