Happy Wednesday!
While recently in Kentucky for the Keeneland Yearling sales, Dottie and John went by the farm to say hello to Zenyatta and to meet “Baby Z”. John was tickled when Zenyatta came right over to say hello, and watching baby 12Z running in the paddock with his friends was pure delight! It was great time for all.
Enjoy the photos from their visit!

One of the race writers said Santa Anita must be loving the Belmont close.
The handle on opening day should really go up.

Dear Sandy,
Left you the name of some NE Ohio outlets that will have those stylish
oxfords so we can compete on dress on page 5.
Let me know what you think.

Nina Kaiser is on HRTV talking about the
Zenny statue, how she created it and everything
Special about Zenny. Great show.

Sign, Judy B and Zenyen,
I enjoyed reading all your thoughts on 12Z looks.
Sign, I was really impressed with the confirmation photo of Kris S. My first thought was “that’s 12Z as a stallion!”
Zenyen, I really see the Kris S. influence.
Sign and Judy thanks again for the link to Zeny’s weanling photo.
I’m sharing again for others (courtesy of Sign and Judy B)

Elsewhere…
Did I read someone say that more photos are coming? With a heading that reads “Dottie & John Visit Lane’s End” shouldn’t there be a photo of John with Zeny or 12Z? I have been waiting for that moment when John first sees 12Z up close and without a photo it kind of feels like it hasn’t happened yet. In the photo of 12Z, I wish John had been at the other side of the lead rope with a big smile on his face.

Thanks for pulling all of these links together, ESPHorses.
Great to see them together, and yes 12 Z looks a lot like Kris S.
I think the Bernie in him will come out as his body becomes more
uniform and everything grows together. He is going to be one
fine looking guy. Sooo very fun to watch him grow.
Thanks to TEAM Z and Lanes End for letting us into a process that the public never sees.

Thank you so much for the info you left me on the previous page about Bernie and Street Cry! Wonderful video’s and info! I was at Saratoga the day Bernie won the Travers and when his son Stay Thirsty one too! What a thrill to see father and son win the same race on the same track! Thanks for the info on what the Mosses’ might do with Z’s babies, I wouldn’t let them go either., what a nice little family they will create. Thanks again, Happy Capping!

OOPS !!!
I bet Winning Machine, the speed in post 2, to place.
I may have to change that. Original bet was Richard’s Kid to place.
Rail Trip is a good bet, on the outside and ready to go !!!
This race is very confusing. Will listen to HRTV tonight and in AM for
any additional information.

What are other thoughts? Dinky Diva, don’t keep your thoughts to yourself this week.
We may all be able to win big with your tips.
HeidiK (Vallejo, Ca) aka DinkyDiva
Sign…. This week I’m doing the samething as I did last week. I’m forgetting about who my personal fave’s are in the race, and will try and beat them with another long shot. So, I’m going with Empire Way to win. He’s been improving and should have a good race. Or, I hope so. We’ll see.
However, it’s been a busy and long week so, I haven’t done my usual research.
signofthetimes; President of Texas RN Chapter
That last photo of Dottie and Z is very cute.
Dottie is trying to get her to look at John and the camera, has she become
camera shy, letting her “youngters” steel the lime light ??? What a nurturing mom
or did Dottie or John not have pepermints ????
signofthetimes; President of Texas RN Chapter
Back to Richard’ Kid to place, lots of talk as he is on the outside.
GOD in last few races has had the trigger pulled tooo soon with nothing left,
Talking Heads say Raphael Bejarano does not do that “he has magic hands”.
However, the speed on GOD to the outside, may make it difficult and spark
a duel, depending if Winning Machine is going to dog GOD.
Safer to stick to the outside, Rail trip may be a second for an Exacta with Richards
Kid to win as well ???
What are your thought TC, Dinky, etc…
carol in utah
oh well…..why not the one that history of always being second..Nonios

spell check strikes again…”the one with the history”

Terry:
Lets name 12Z first before we try to figure out what 13Z’s name will be! We could be playing the name game every year if the “Queen” continues to have success with foaling each year! And Mosses’ decide to wait until they are 2! This could be a new past time for us!!!!!
Keep your spirits HIGH!

To one and all – Shoot!!
I have so much to say, but unfortunately my brain has froze up on me once again! I thought it was better – from “the drugs” YAY! (JUST KIDDING!!) And unfortunately, NOT happy “drugs”! LOL! I was in the middle of ‘talking’ to Zenny when “BAM!” NOTHING now … Thank you each and everyone of you, you know I have so much Z LOVE for my dumpling friends! When I count my blessings, I ALWAYS COUNT YOU TWICE!! Some of you are my silent Angels – you KNOW who you are – and it just makes me cry knowing that you all cared and thought of me so much! I will continue this later … I have to go now … blank … OH! Zenny is going to ‘ring’ me up later, or maybe we’ll TANGO!!
I must tell her about my visit yesterday to Barn 55! When my thought process clears …. Love you ♥ ♥ many many times over!! ♥ ♥
