We know you’ve all been waiting for more photos!
Team Z and Lane’s End are proud to share these images from the birth of Zenyatta’s second colt. Based on the response we’ve received, it seems that the world is as excited as we are.
We had a spectacular day on the farm, and we are saying our goodbyes for now. Mom and her little one are now relaxing, bonding, and spending some quiet time alone.
There are still more photos from this trip to come. We’ll post again soon with news about 13Z and his older brother!
Enjoy!

Orange you handsome! Prince will love his new brother – his favorite color. Later he’ll be grey for Ann – pleasing everyone as always Z. Beautifully done as always, big thank you to all involved for letting us be a part of this perfect world.

Thank you so much for reading our minds!
He’s just beautiful. And these scenes are just oozing with love and affection.

Thank you so much for continuing to share Zenyatta with us. I fell in love with her a few years ago and love her still. Because of your generosity, we, her fans, are allowed to share in these wonderful moments. 13Z has no idea how wonderful his mother truly is. Our Queen…and her newest prince, are beautiful. Thank you again.
Janette
Thank you so much for posting the pictures of Zenyatta and 13Z! Of course the whole world is excited about Zenyatta and her TWO colts. After all, she is the Queen :o)
13Z is as adorable as 12Z, and once again Zenyatta is proving to be an excellent mom.

catherine Tyerman
thanks so much for sharing the photos,and news. zenyatta captured my heart during her awesome career,and still has it! Queen Z,and all her connections are a class act all the way! and so good for promoting interest in the sport! I wonder if the new colt will stay chestnut, or turn grey? Does anyone know if you can tell when they are this young?
Kelli
You can tell. In these pictures he’s still wet so it isn’t as easy, but he has a lot of white hairs around his nose and mouth which could indicate he will turn gray.
PatB from NM
Mama is so loving! What a sturdy handsome boy (who may indeed turn gray). Thanks for these pics. Love you always, Z–you and your boys.
Peppermint
What a cute foal! I bet he will be gray eventually. Great job Z!
Kristen
I hope Breyer will do a special 13Z model! I shall have to keep an eye out for one to surface!
Sue/FlCPRC

Leslie Simis
Thank you all so much for always keeping Zenyatta’s fans informed…she is such a part of our lives and we enjoy it so very much. Big congrats to all involved on this wonderful birthday gift that Zenny shared with us all !
Amyk
Orange you handsome! Prince will love his baby brother – his favorite color. Later Ann will have her gorgeous grey – pleasing everyone as always Z! Thank you to all involved for inviting us into this perfect world.
Amy
So cute! Wonder if he’ll turn grey?
Cynthia H.
He is so exquisite! He’s got his Mama’s ears, her gentle eye, and legs which look long enough to carry him to the moon. Already, there is a certain regalness to his bearing which cannot be denied. He knows that he is descended from royalty! Zenyatta looks magnficient, sheathed in dapples, and is so attentive and responsive to her little Prince. He must feel like all of us did when meeting her for the first time: instant love, admiration, awe, and a sharing of souls which cannot be explained or defined. Thank you, Team Z, for allowing us to share such tender moments. The tears are flowing from a wellspring of pure joy.

Thank you for the pictures. It is so sweet to see them bonding that way. With all the troubles in the world today, it does the heart good to see this love and caring between mother and child. Such peace and calm. Thank you again.
PS: I do believe he has the family ears.
Carole
What a handsome colt!! Thank you for updating us on the beautiful Zenyatta. She too captured my heart when she was racing, I loved watching her walk/dance out to the track, and I love watching her now as a loving mom. I just wanted to say how much i appreciate you keeping us fans up to date – she’s a special girl.

Thank you to the Moss’ and to Lane’s End for allowing us access to this much anticipated “Second Prince”!
Zenyatta you are the Queen of all you survey and everyone can all see just from these first photos what a wonderful mother you are. SOOOOO glad the delivery and birth is finally behind for BOTH of you now……………..may you have many, many days ahead of Kentucky bluegrass to eat and warm sunshine on your withers.
We love you Zenny! Congratulations!
Theresa Widerman
These photos are the greatest! The wait was worth every minute…Prince will be very happy with his new bro! Thanks for keeping everybody informed!!!!
michael clifton
i read it take about a year for him to turn grey
Kelli
Every horse grays at its own pace. 13Z could be snow white by the time he turns two like Hansen, or he could stay dark until he’s 4, 5, 6 years old like The Factor.
Vicki B. near Hollywood Park
Thanks for that lesson, Kelli!
Irene Caty
