Happy Sunday!
Team Z arrived at Lane’s End yesterday to await the arrival of Zenyatta’s third foal. At the farm, horses and people alike are enjoying perfect spring weather, green grass and sunshine. These photos offer a glimpse of how we spent our weekend.
Fans can look forward to a blog post announcing major news. In the meantime, check our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (or look here on the right side of the blog) to keep up to date with our visit.
Enjoy!

Oh my, what a great surprise this Sunday night. I always smile when I see Zenny with the Mosses…such an amazing love connection they have with each other. Red is stunning as usual! We are blessed to have this site and all these updates.

Oh my!!! Thank you so much for sharing this time and these moments with us through these wonderful photos. As excited as I am and knowing the anticipation that I feel for the big event, I’m sure I can only barely begin to feel how excited and anxious Ann, Jerry and all of Team Z are feeling in these hours and days before 14Z arrives. The connection between Zenyatta and Ann is so strong and beautiful and it is wonderful to be able to witness it with the photos and words shared here. Thank you for letting us be a small part of the world of our Queen. My heart is full with such love for Zenyatta and such gratitude for your generosity in sharing her with those of us who love her from far away. Thank you.

I am hoping that Zenyatta has a lovely filly and give her a kiss and a huge for me.

The shot of Z and LIS brought tears to my eyes. How great that these old friends (and yes, rivals) can enjoy retirement together.

What amazing pictures! Zenny always loves seeing her human family and they are always there at the most important times for her. Thanks Team Z for this update…all of us are in pacing mode eagerly waiting for 14Z to arrive. Our Red Prince is so handsome and loves seeing Ann, too.

So excited to read on the previous post that you will have a chance to greet a new little foal in the near future. How fun is that?? Keep your camera handy and the light behind you :-)

Wonderful photos
Candace
Thank you for sharing these pictures! I hope everything goes perfectly for my girl. And I LOVE the Z ring Mrs. Moss is wearing!

Hi Candace!!
In my excitement, I had missed that ring: is it ever stunning!!!!! Must have been a special present from Mr. Moss…perhaps an early Mother’s Day gift. Our Queen and the Lady Ann are so connected…I just love how Mrs. Moss is bonding with Z14 in that photo.
Mr. & Mrs. Moss, Team Zenyatta, Team Lane’s End, and Zenyatta, thank you for allowing us to be a part of all this. Zenyatta, may the Lord keep you in the palm of His hand during the birth of Z14, and Z14, may the Lord keep you in the palm of His hand just as He did with CoZ and PrinZling!!!
xoxo to All,
Mary in Boone
Candace
She actually had it on at the last Zenyatta Celebration in Louisville…it was so beautiful and a fitting nod to a Queen and her kind owner :)
Ingrid in MA
I believe Jerry had the ring made for Ann after Zenyatta won the ’09 Breeder’s Cup Classic. I remember there being talk of all the fans will be wanting one, but Jerry and Ann wanted to keep it something just for them – not in a selfish way, but in a private moment between them and their girl Zenyatta, if you understand what I mean.
Alex Bowdoin
That is quite Beautiful indeed!!
Candace
Gorge!!! :)
Deirdre
Many Blessings for a safe and happy delivery for Zynatta and Team Z!

Zenny is so serene…she loves being with Ann and Jerry. I was hoping for an update today and here it is…all of us are still in pacing mode anxious for 14Z to arrive.
Doesn’t our Red Prince have a beautiful head? The pic with him and Ann is so sweet.
Gloria
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this update! Good luck to Team Z and the big girl herself. She is one special creature! Love you, Zenyatta!
Helen Springer
Great photos! Thank you so much for including Z’s “extended family” in all the excitement!
We really, really appreciate your generosity.
Fran Harrington
Thank you team Z for the update….Queen Z looks healthy and beautiful. 13Z is very handsome!! Patiently waiting for her foal to arrive. Queen Z: safe delivery and a healthy foal!!

Sweets is wider in the beam….they are both very close….Zenny may have done the equivalent of “dropping” in preparation for delivery…foal getting into position…but all speculative
Catherine Uher
OMG thank you, thank you, thank you!!! These pictures are just simply beautiful and so full of love it’s making my heart Burt’s with nothing but happiness and joy!!! And I’m so excited to see that Life Is Sweet hasn’t had her foal either!!, it would just be amazing if they both delivered on the same day!!! I had the honor of meeting my beloved Zenyatta and Life Is Sweet last November and it was just the best day of my life!!! I’m do excited right now I can hardly contain myself!!! :) :) :) <3 <3 <3

Tears of joy and hugs, Z. Love you so much.

I know Zenny is SO ready to foal. I was hoping she would go yesterday, which was my birthday but its ok…. I’m so looking forward to seeing little 14z and I’m praying that Zenny has an easy time of it and just sails right through the foaling. My, 13z is such a handsome young man, isn’t he….. I love you Zenny…
Deneen Shadewald
Such beautiful photos! Thank you Team Z for sharing. Zenyatta looks great! Anxiously awaiting the arrival of 14Z. Ann & Jerry – thank you so much for all that you do for Z’s fans. Praying for a safe & healthy foaling. Okay – pacing has officially begun. Sending hugs & nose kisses to Zenny, Coz, 13Z and 14Z.
Valerie Hodder
What an inspiration Zenyatta has been – her unique personality, intelligence and having such a caring team throughout her career and into retirement. It’s like a fairy tale. I’m hoping Z has her foal tonight as it was my dad’s birthday….love her!
Janet Newman
Prayers for a safe delivery.
As always great photos and love the one with Ann and Z13,
Zenyatta and her boys make the sun come up for me everyday!
