VERSAILLES, KY — (April 20, 2014) It’s a girl! Zenyatta’s third foal was born last night at Lane’s End Farm. The bay filly by War Front arrived at 12:03 am, just in time for Easter. She has one white sock and a blaze.
The foaling, Zenyatta’s third in three years, went smoothly. In attendance were Zenyatta’s owners, Jerry and Ann Moss, Dr. Holder from Hagyard Equine Medical Institute, as well as Farm Manager Mike Cline, Broodmare Manager Charles Campbell, and others from Lane’s End Farm. The Mosses are overjoyed to welcome the latest member of Zenyatta’s family. The loving mother and full-of-life foal enjoyed a beautiful and sunny Easter day.
Zenyatta has previously delivered colts by Bernardini and Tapit. Cozmic One, born in 2012, is now in training at Mayberry Farm in Ocala, FL. Ziconic, the recently-named chestnut colt by Tapit, is a yearling under the care of Lane’s End Farm.
Thanks to the Zenyatta fans who have kept watch, posted comments, and sent good wishes!

Awwww! Well, I was wrong about her color (she sure looked brown in the first pic we saw), but she is a whole lotta cute. Glad to see she got Mom’s ears. Zenyatta sure is a loving mom.

Laura J., I’m going to piggy back on your comment. Just tried to leave a comment and it wouldn’t take it…just kept spinning…LOL!
Be still my heart!!!! Wow! So beautiful! Thank you, Zenny! You did good. Hugs, and hope you are feeling good and have fully recovered. You had us on pins and needles, but the wait was so worth it! Thank you, Team Z, and Lane’s End. Will be looking for many new photos and videos. Hugs to all.

No worries about the color, Laura, But isn’t it neat that Zenyatta has given us a rainbow of babies? And absolutely adorable and gorgeous ones at that. Congrats to all of her connections!

Dear Team Z: Thanks so much for the sharing of the beautiful pictures. You don’t know how much this website has meant to me over the last couple of months. Right before Thanksgiving, I had a stroke and woke up not knowing which side was which of my body. thanks to the wonderful hospital and rehab center I am up and walking plus typing (yeah!!!!!!!!). My hubby knowing how much I love Z brought in my laptop and walked me thru surfing the web again. So I’m doing great and better every day. With great support of family friends and all the love on this site, I will soon be better than ever. Bless you all for making this site so special and full of love. =-

Dear Julie, I am so sorry you are having to go through the illness of a stroke, but happy indeed that you are on the road to recovery and feel able to post on this very special day! I agree, there is a great deal of love here and Zenyatta is the best example of what determination along with kindness and love can achieve. Continued blessings to you. Love and hugs, Dawn

Julie: I’m sorry to hear about your stroke but it sounds like you’re making a fabulous recovery. I know how much inner strength and determination recovery from stroke requires first hand, as a very close friend of mine sustained one last year. But this, together with family and friends, is a great place to come for charging those inner batteries — a place filled with laughter, love, kindness and interesting tidbits, from dear Moosie to sharing Zenny’s news. I send you a bushel of positive energy!

So sweet and precious. Congratulations to Zenny and Baby Girl… Hugs and Kisses :-)

ZENNY: ISN’T SHE LOVELY? Now you get to say things like, “WE GIRLS ARE GOING FOR A MUD BATH!”

I LOVE the photo of Mrs. Moss welcoming her to the world….Mrs. Moss on one side and Our Queen on the other…what an EaZter jewel…makes the Faberge eggs look like costume jewelry!!!
Congratulations to Queen Zenyatta, Mr. & Mrs. Moss, Team Zenyatta, Lane’s End, War Front, and all connections. You are all the bomb for letting us be a part of it too.
