Crisp fall air always means change for mares and foals at Lane’s End. Zenyatta’s Medaglia d’Oro filly has recently been weaned. As 17Z and her herd playfully enter a new stage in life, Zenyatta enjoys some quiet time with her fellow mares.
Ann visited the farm in late September to spend some time with Zenyatta and her filly. We’re happy to share these photos from her trip. Scroll all the way to the bottom for videos too! Next week we’ll post a recent photo update from Alys.

WOW, such great photos and videos you have shared with us. I feel as if Christmas came early. Zenyatta and Baby Girl Z look wonderful. They are healthy and happy and full of fun. It appears that Baby Girl Z loves to run and enjoys engaging with her friends. Please watch over her closely and keep her safe, she is a treasure. I have personally named her Princezz Annie Rose. In honor of her Dam, her owner, and rose is pink for girls and part of her racing colors. She is such a beauty and I love her spunk. Can’t wait to see more of her and Zenyatta, it always makes my day!

Typo! Sorry Ann!
Rebekah Lane
Did she have surgery on her leg?

Rebekah, I am only “assuming” with this explanation but they could be wrapping her suspected “club foot leg” at night to relax the muscles and tendons so they may relax and stretch out and become more extended.

Thanks.

Thank you so much, Ann for sharing these beautiful pictures and videos. They are truly special..

Great photos and videos of both Zenyatta and that little frisky girl! She has such personality. I love the new Zenyatta DVD, too! Thanks to Team Z for releasing it. After watching it, it made me emotionally exhausted. Whether it was good or bad – you made me watch that final race again ;), I am so happy to have Zenyatta’s story all in one spot. Sending lots of love to Zenyatta as she is my #1 in horse racing. Good to see Ann here, too.

Curious to know why they wrapped 17z’s left front?
Marshall (NC Broad)
Check the post about 14 spots above. Someone (Rebekah) inquired about the wrapped foot and the reply is very sensible (from Mary M.).
