Many of you may have noticed that we didn’t host our Celebration Sticker Raffle in November of 2021; because of that we are going to celebrate Zenyatta’s birthday this year by hosting it in April! This year’s sticker is going to be sold on Lane’s End Farm’s online gift shop (link below) and will be available starting on the Queen’s Birthday (April 1st). As always, every sticker purchased will enter you into a raffle to win a private visit with Zenyatta and a tour of Lane’s End Farm! This year we will be drawing 10 lucky winners on Facebook live with Zenyatta at 2:00pm EST Friday, April 15th!
Our sticker this year reads “Celebration 2021” as we were unable to hold the annual raffle last November. The sticker was designed to resemble the nameplate on her halter.
We are excited to announce that 100% of this year’s proceeds will go to The Secretariat Center. The Secretariat Center’s mission is to prepare off-track Thoroughbreds for happy, healthy, and successful post-track careers by rehabilitating and giving them a broad-based foundation of skills to ensure a harmonious match with their adopters. Make your contribution to The Secretariat Center by purchasing a limited edition 2021 Celebration Sticker.
Purchase your 2021 Zenyatta Celebration sticker here! (available starting April 1st)
In Other Zenyatta news:
All Zenyatta merch will now be exclusively available on www.lanesend-shop.com
Lane’s End will be going Facebook live with Zenyatta at 2:00pm EST April 1st for her Birthday so make sure to watch and join in on her birthday fun!

How appropriate that this announcement should arrive on the 52nd birthday of the great Secretariat! I can’t imagine a more splendid combination than Big Red and our beloved Queen Z! This is wonderful news in every way! I can’t wait to watch her birthday celebration on Friday and the big drawing on the 15th! Best of luck to all of those who have dreamed for many years of meeting our magnificent Queen in-person!

Oh pick us! We met and got our picture of our then 9 yr old son with California Chrome and need a reason to come back to Kentucky. Been a long cold winter in Northern Ohio. Love the Queen. IMO up there with the Great Man O War!

And I just purchased a Secretariat t-shirt and a coffee mug just yesterday! I loved her and Zenyatta, in fact I bought the Zenny bracelet with her name plate on it like on her halter,,,and I’ve worn it every day and never take it off except to bath or anything that involves water and the leather has broke apart except for the stitching is holding it together, so I had to take it off. I’m gonna see if I can get the leather redone! It has brown and a strip of her silks colors (Turquoise)
Hopefully I can get it repaired,,,I’m lost without it!!

Happy Happy Birthday to our Queen and her gorgeous son Ziconic. So glad the drawings have been revived so that more fans will be able to visit! It’s a great experience and I was so lucky to be able to go last year.
Loyal Zenyatta Supporter
It was wonderful to see Zenny at Lane’s End getting spoiled once again with her favorite treats. She really is adored by the staff who work there. After all these years, I still cry happy tears just seeing her live even for just a short time. Like so many other fans here, I still have Zenyatta items in my home reminding me of her daily. My favorite is the Breyer model of her on a living room table which I keep clean and dusted of course. Thank you big girl for still giving us such joy.
Marilu Villanueva
Happy Birthday dear Zenyatta and Ziconic. I hope I will be able to go to Lanes End visit you soon. Love and hugs, Marilu

I ordered a sticker. I never win anything but along with my other sticker, it will help me find my car in the parking lot and give a little to a good cause.
Marshall (NC Broad)
Shirlee,
Glad you got a sticker!

I LOVE YOU Zenyatta!! I did buy a raffle to see you but I have heard anything so sad news for me but happy for the others.
Love you and yours foals,

It looks like no more foals for Zenyatta. It is sad because she loved her babies so much. But maybe it is just as well; things did not go so smoothly for Kenyatta in her broodmare career.
Perhaps once of her grandchildren will pick up her racing genes and become a champion. Sometimes, greatness takes a while to show up…
She will always be loved and be a fan favorite.
