She delivered a healthy colt by Tapit at 11:47 pm EST on Monday April 1. Estimated at 145 lbs, he is a leggy chestnut with a white blaze similar to Zenyatta’s. Eager to start his new life, he was standing on his own by 12:18 am and nursing within an hour.
Both are doing so very well, and it’s a joy to see how much Zenyatta loves being a mom.
Thank you to all of the fans who have been following The Queen and sending good wishes and blessings. It worked!
We can’t wait to spend the day with little 13Z tomorrow, and there will be many more pictures to come!

Dear Zenny:
Congratulations on the birth of your second son. Oh my goodness Zenny I just knew you would have your baby on your birthday. You probably wanted to enjoy your special day and then bring your lititle one into the world.
Well I am on the train on my way to work and just couldn’t stand the suspense so I signed onto my email and found notices from fellow Z’sters saying you had your foal.
He is handsome.
Congratulations again Zenny. I can’t wait to see more pictures.
Love
Linda

My friends have 2 large grey retired racers and when the older one, Shapleigh Benz was born he was almost black and now he is completely grey lol! I LOVE YOU ZENYATTA!!! AND 12Z AND 13Z AND ALL THE Z’S TO COME!!!

This was done , all in the distinctive Zenyatta style.Praise GOD MOM & Baby are safe and healthy. His Blaze is very similar to MOM’S, His muzzle looks a little Gray to me, He is adorable and MOM of course is a great beauty herself, it is no wonder he is so striking.
