Thank you so much for this lovely picture of Z Princess. She is still as much in my heart today as she was the day of her birth. She was a special, special girl.
I know you are running and bucking in beautiful pastures now, Z Princess, and someday we will all see you again.

She meant the world to so many in such a short period of time, What a beauty she was, just like her mama. I hope and pray one day we will see another little filly by Zenyatta’s side. In the meantime may Z Princess and baby Z comfort and keep each company in the heavens above! Lori
Dawn Todd
Miss you my sweet filly. I named my baby cat after u exactly three days before your horrible accident and layer flowers at feet of your momma’s statue at Santa Anita the following Saturday in your honor. Run happy and free sweet Z. You were born with Greatness and had such a bright future ahead of you.
Nancy
Still hurts to think about it. I am sure her and her baby brother are doing great together. We sure do miss you Z Princess

God just loaned her to us for a brief time. What a gift with those beautiful long lashes and the never to be forgotten curly mane. More of our tears to make up today’s April showers. We will always remember and cry for her. She is honored every year by many of us by way of donations to horse charities. Each year we call her name to remember and remind others of her bright time with us. Take care of little brother Z Princess.
Leslie R.
I’ll always remember and love Z Princess. She was special and so beautiful. I’m so sorry that she’s no longer with us. I like to think that Baby Z is now with her and that they are both being watched over by Grandma Vertigineux.
Hugs to all,
Leslie

I thought of sweet baby Z Princess when I realized the date this morning. I’m sure she’s taking good care of her darling baby brother and showing him all the fun things they can do together – Happy Birthday sweet girl.
Brenda Springer
I’m sure that ZPrincess is doing an awesome job of being a big sister to Z16 as they are together in a beautiful pasture. Two wonderful foals who crossed the bridge much too soon.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETHEART!~
Your arrival 2 years ago made my heart skip several beats and as I remember it, your Mama’s website crashed as fans worldwide wrestled to get on here and see Zenny’s little daughter.
Your beauty. It was ethereal. From the curly mane to the eyelashes that just wouldn’t quit to the beautiful face and long-limbed body.
Then, as time went on, you began to darken into a luxurious mahogany brown, with a dark mane and tail.
Like so many, I came here as soon as new photos by Kyle or Taylor were posted and looking at you, I dreamed.
I remember each moment, albeit from afar, with you. And you live in my heart where there is a room filled with Z Princess.
Love to Team Z, Zenny & her boys, and my Zen family family here. Eternal love to you, Z Princess, and your baby brother.

It should have typed TYLER not Taylor…..don’t you just SO DISLIKE when a machine gets the better of you??????

The tribute to Z Princess was absolutely beautiful. I am sitting at work with tears streaming down my face as I watch that beautiful little filly and listening to “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”. Thank you so much, Ann, and all of Team Z for sharing your memories with us.

I get teary-eyed, too, watching the video and thinking about Z Princess and her little brother. Their lives were much too short but they will not be forgotten.

The Princess was such a beauty, with such a personality!
Always remembered.

Thank you, Ann, and Team Z for sharing wonderful memories of Z princess with us.
I am sure Z princess and her little baby brother are playing happily in the meadows with Grandma Vertigineux watching over them.
Thanks for the lovely video, Ann. Happy to see Zenny looking healthy after the delivery and adjusting without her baby.
Love and Hugs to Zenyatta.

Thinking of the deaths of ZPrincess, and now Z16, reminds me of a John Greenleaf Whittier poem often quoted by my late father:
For of all sad words of tongue or pen,
The saddest are these: “It might have been!”
Sue Fredrick Happy as a lark
Oh my has it been a year already since you were born beautiful girl……time has flown yet the sadness is fresh a again with this picture and the loss of Z16. I’ll bet you two are having a ball up there chasing each other around the lush pastures, both of you whole again. Hope our Steve is there keeping an eye on you two, such a perfect baby sitter he must be. Will always remember and love all of you.
Bluegrass Girl
Every time I see a photo of the beautiful Z Princes with her long
eyelashes & curls there is a tug in my heart.
As then, I am still fascinated by her face stripe.
Thought that her name should be Lady’z Hawke when she grew up.
Thinking of you on your birthday and so many times throughout the years.

She was a picture of promise and we all loved her so. It will always bring tears to my eyes and an ache in my heart since she is gone from us. Bless you, Zenny, as you have done such a great job of producing beautiful offspring. May there be another that will truly reflect your courage, grace and skill. Love you.
