Z's Diary

Diary Post #290

Hey, Matt! Have you heard the news? Photo by Sarah Campion

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

I simply could not wait to tell Matt the news…and I gather he thought I was just being
TOO CUTE! During the last few days, Dottie has been working with Jeannine Edwards
and Amy Zimmerman from ESPN on an update about ME. They want to present this
segment on the ESPN racing broadcast this weekend.

Dottie just heard back from Amy and the piece will be aired during the Hollywood
Park Gold Cup racing program this SATURDAY on ESPN. I’m not sure of the time yet…
as so many of you live in different time zones.

I know they will have some very current photos of ME as they are being taken this
Thursday afternoon. Oh my…I must get my beauty rest…and look fabulous! Now, this is
so special!

I love visiting with my friends. We are all really GREAT PALS!

I had to stop and tell PQ about it as well. I’m such a lucky, lucky girl!

Hope you get the opportunity to watch the broadcast.

With Love,
Hugs to All~
Z

    TODAY”S THE DAY! DEADLINE IS TODAY!!! URGENT REPOST re DJ’S POST ABOVE TO EVERYONE WHO LOVES ZENYATTA”S DIARY: FOR DOTTIE’S BIRTHDAY. WE ARE PLANNING A VERY SPECIAL WAY OF SHOWING HER OUR APPRECIATION.

It will involve no cost or travel on your part, but it is urgent that you contact Karen as soon as possible because she wants to have the initial stage completed by July 6.

    Love the photos. So nice to see Z visiting with PQ.
    Wonderful to hear about the ESPN Z update. Since we will be at HP for the Gold Cup, we want to have our recorder ready to roll. Estimated time?

    Isn’t Dottie the best for finding such great ways to keep all Z’s fans up-to-date — brilliant!
    Can’t wait to see the race and the Z update on Saturday.

    LOVE these photos because they show just how happy our Z is, always surrounded by people who love and appreciate her!

    Zenny, you look gorgeous and so content in your new life. Meeting you in person is at the very top of my wish list.

    @signofthetimes — Thank you for the information on Vertigineux. Brought tears to my eyes reading how Don Robinson was heartbroken about the sale to Coolmore and has arranged for Vertigineux to be returned to Winter Farm after her death to be buried next to her dam. (Post 289) Will she be returned to Winter Farm after her broodmare career has ended?

    Can’t wait for Sunday on ESPN. See it takes YOU to get racing on that channel. Looks to me like you have a new loverboy and he is a cutie. Matt is a hunk. PQ and you must have been sharing mommie talk and comparing notes! Ahhh, prospective motherhood – what a wonderful experience. Sarah, the photos are great. How about one with all Z’s pals in the paddock together? That would be great!
    Now, Zenny, go get some nutrients(grass-oats-carrots).
    Love you Big Girl.
    Oh, thanks Dottie for the news and ask John if he could post more training videos of Eboulissante on his FB page?
    Love’em!

    @Z-sters going to HP for Gold Cup Day July 9—Karen Gogue will post something specific, I’m sure, for meeting up, but I wanted to say I’ll be wearing white shorts, white top, white visor, and pink and turquoise scarves, and hanging out at the paddock as events allow, so I hope you’ll say hi and we’ll get to know each other.

    @Trina Nagele-Thanks. Here is today’s joke–An Inglewood cab driver picked up a rich businessman at LAX. The passenger said Hollywood park, please. The passenger and the driver struck up a conversation and the passenger said that he just arrived from Singapore to bet on one of his horses. He stated that his trainer was positive that his horse would win at a big price. When they arrived at Hollywood Park, the driver, being a gambler, asked the businessman for the name of the horse. I’ll tell you what, said the passenger, I don’t want to say it out loud so I’ll write the name of the horse on a piece of paper. He then slipped him the note. Later on the driver opened the note. It said </.#.***/.

    @all-further clarification may be necessary on this one. That is the best I could do in trying to imitate the type of writing that a Singapore businessman would use.
