Happy Friday!
Spring is in full swing at Lane’s End! We spent the earlier part of the week in Kentucky visiting Zenyatta and her two boys.
13Z is quite a frisky and independent colt. He’s equally interested in greeting visitors and cruising around the paddock with his mom. You’ll see them running together in the video at the end of this post.
Coz, who is now a very handsome yearling, was always waiting at the fence to greet us.
There are so many more photos from this visit, and we’ll be putting up brand new photo galleries next week.
Enjoy!

Pure happiness!!!

How cute “this is Mom and me going WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!”

The little one has the need for speed!

I admire the Mosses so much for their affection for Zenyatta and her boys. Some owners would have taken their horse to Kentucky and the only contact they would have had with them would be to cash the checks. You can see the love between Ann and Zenyatta. Thanks so much for allowing us to be part of Zenyatta’s life.

Z13 has the need for speed.

You got that right!

Every time I see 13Z I fall in love with him more.
What an absolutely amazing colt! The fact that his trot was able to keep up with his mother’s canter, even for a few strides, he is just Un-Be-Liv-ABLE!

Coz is so big! And his ears look exactly like his mother’s.
13Z is gorgeous. Happy foal, happy Mom.
Nancy Albino
Thank you for sharing these. I love Zenyatta and these 2 babies. I’m glad they are happy.
Denise Berube
I just want to grab and kiss his sweet baby face.

Fabulous pics….and the video is so thrilling. Thank you.
Monica Edwards
I love Coz, but this new colt could be the force to be reckoned with.
Debbie Hurt
I agree Monica!! I love Coz too, and LOVE the fact he looks so much like his beautiful momma, but 13Z is going to be something ELSE when he grows up I think! From the first time I saw his picture,something said this could be the next triple crown winner about him!
Maria
OMG! He is adorable! I really hope that Z’s babies do well and have wonderful careers! Love her!
Marta
I love it when Z and 13Z are running, Mama runs just fast enough to stay ahead of 13Z, and we all know what she is capable of!
Coz is just too handsome…
Cathleen
Coz looks just like his mamma! And look at 13Z keep up with Zennie! Love the photos but especially the video. I hope more videos get posted! :)

Everyone looks wonderful! Thanks so much for sharing. I think if I were the Moss’ I would just have to move to Lexington so I could stop in for a visit at least once a week!
I’m thinking that I’d breed Zenny back to Tapit. Coz is getting to be such a young man but he still loves the attention from his family. I can’t wait to see him as a 2 year old.

WOW!! Just WOW! Kyle/LE/Team Z.–you just made my weekend. These are all breathtakingly stunning. All of a sudden spring has come to LE! I’m glad now that you waited a bit to get all these pictures with the lush spring grass. Both look gorgeous. Baby Z. looks like a horse! (not a baby) And he’s only i month old. These are the best yet. Love the video!
@Michele Moore– I’m having the hardest time connecting. Left you a message at the end of the previous blog. Hugs.
Love to all.

Barbara you got the email out about before I did LOL I was too busy chatting on FB about the amazing video of “Little Big Red” :-) Priceless run with Momma and Teacher ♥
Erin Gilligan
All three of them are so gorgeous! Zenyatta will always be the QUEEN!
Eileen
Zenyatta sure has beautiful colts. Love the photos and the video. It is so wonderful to watch z as a mom as her family grows.
Beverly Brown
Thanks so much to everyone who makes these photos, comments and video available to all of us. Especially during the very busy foaling season it is truly appreciated when we can turn on our computer and see Zenyatta and her boys.
This is really unprecedented to be able to have so much access to the activities especially of a mare when she retiress to the breeding shed. But then Zenyatta is no ordinary mare!! She is still as stunning as ever and still doing her job to perfection.
Thanks to all who give her such love and excellent care….it shows!

Zenyatta is no ordinary mare AND the Mosses are no ordinary owners–high hoof to Team Z!

Simply wonderful photos and video. Love seeing 13Z running with her. Poetry in motion.
Barb Zylbert
Beautiful colts! Filly next year Z! Who is the sire for 2014?
LauraJ (Cincinnati OH)
Zenyatta’s next date has not been announced.
Lynda
It makes me so happy to see Zenyatta and her second little one running in unison. Life is so beautiful!
Chris Brakman
Beautiful video! Queen Z still exudes so much power even in her gentle gallop. I love seeing her running with 13Z. :-)
Cathy
Zenny still has the moves! Z13 has an Arabian face to me. Such a dainty muzzle and dished face. I can’t wait to see him when he gets older. Thanks so much for posting..
Jeanne from Texas
Thank you Thank you Thank you for these pictures of Zenny and her babies! Zenyatta looks terrific with all those dapples in her coat. And 12Z(Coz?) is stunningly darker to me. Oh to be able to reach out and touch them! Hug them. Love them. I always love to read all the posts; they are like going to therapy. You feel so much better after reading about “our” horses! Everybody have a great weekend and ride in the sunshine!!!
Maddie
13Z is a hansome little bugger!!!! I cannot wait to watch him mature.
Donna
This has made my day.
I truly think that 13Z is a really special colt, I get goosebumps when I see him.
Z looks fabulous and what a wonderful mother she is.
12Z is a teenager looks like his dad.
I am sure the connections of Tapit are thrilled and now HDG is in foal to him.
Thank you so much for photos and video, you are all so generous with us all that love the Queen.
Donna
Margaret
Oh my thank you for all these bautiful pictures. I can just happily go through them.
Who is standing in the field when Z goes running by? Happened so fast I couldn’t make them out! And it looks like Z and her baby aren’t yet running with anyone else. Is there a time table to when they’ll be introduced to anyone else?
Totally off subject…any word on how Life is Sweet is doing? For anyone new LIS was Z’s old barn mate and there are some VERY cute video of John trying to convince her to wake up so she can go do her workout. On a scale of 0-10 with 10 being best I’d give those a 100.
Mike
That is Kyle Acebo standing in the field as they run by

Hope all is well in Wales my mum is coming to visit on the 14th I can’t wait to see her.
Best Wishes

So, so excited to see the pictures and the video! Love the reference to “Little Big Red” – that’s so perfect! Zenny is still so beautiful and both boys just take your breath. Love that 13Z can “hang” with Mom across the pasture! Thank you so much team Z for continuing to share – don’t know what we would do without our Zenyatta fix!
