Happy Thursday!
November 7th is particularly special to us, as it’s the anniversary of Zenyatta’s 2009 Breeders’ Cup Classic win. In honor of this day we’re re-releasing Jamie Corum’s Zenyatta: Breeders’ Cup Gold in the Zenyatta Shop.
We were at Mayberry Farm in Ocala yesterday visiting Cozmic One. Coz looks great, and Ann, Jerry, and John were thrilled to observe his morning routine.
Today we’re at Lane’s End with Zenyatta, and we told her all about the incredibly successful 2013 Zenyatta.com Celebration. The winners and results will be released once all prizes are claimed, but we want to thank each and every fan who participated. Thanks to you, this weekend was even more fun than we had hoped! The Celebration Sticker and Invitation To Meet Zenyatta were so popular that we decided to draw five winners—Zenyatta can’t wait to meet you!
We’ll update the blog next week with many more photos from this trip!
Update: The five winners of our Invitation To Meet Zenyatta drawing were chosen and notified on Tuesday, November 5.
In the meantime, don’t forget to watch Zenyatta’s 2009 Breeders’ Cup run today. We love you, Z!

With apologies to Kathy, here is an old redneck joke that I reworked into an Indian joke. Three Indians got lost in the forest. The first Indian asks “What do we do?” The second Indian says “Don’t know. We’re Indians, not supposed to get lost in forest.” The third Indian then said “We should do like white man and fire three shots into the air.” The second Indian then said “How does that help?” The third Indian replied “Well, when white man gets lost in the forest he fires three shots into the air and then somebody comes and saves him.” The second Indian then says “That sounds like a great idea.” He then points to the first Indian and says “Go ahead and fire three shots into the air.” The first Indian complies and they wait. After an hour, nothing happens. The first Indian then said “So, how long are we supposed to wait?” The second Indian then said “I don’t know. I guess it depends how close they are. Maybe we should try again?” The third Indian turned to the first Indian and said “Yeah, try firing three more shots into the air.” The first Indian then said “I would, but I only have two arrows left.”

I have looked at the pictures of Ann and Zenny over and over. Don’t know how many times I played the video of the race but it seems like as Z was running at the back and had settled in she was busy looking over her competition. Could that be so?
Thanks for the postings. Love you all.

No matter how many times i watch the 2009 Breeders Cup Classic I still feel the same thrill of watching Zenny mow down all of those fabulous horses. What a race she ran,and the 2010 B.C. was just as fabulous. GOD I miss watching her, but Cozmic One will be on the Track soon, and I will be waiting for the thrill of it all to come back, via her Son.

Is there any possibility Mario could end up as Coz’s groom? That would be soooooooo special.

Watching her race never gets old…I have downloaded all of her races and even though she runs them all the same way…IT NEVER GETS OLD…ITS JUST AS EXCITING AS THE VERY FIRST ONE. SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL LADY AND I MISS HER RUNNING.
