Good Morning!
I must say…I AM SO PROUD AND SO EXCITED! I truly believe that ALL OF YOU, your love, your support, your enthusiasm for ME and MY SPORT have helped to make this possible!
I’m hosting a BIG PARTY and ALL OF YOU are invited!
For the last 3 years, BREEDERS’ CUP has truly been a huge part of my life. It has been a focal point in my career each season. So thanks to ALL OF YOU and the powers that BE…this year I am still going to be completely involved with Breeders’ Cup and the activities…but in a different role than ever before.
I am the OFFICIAL HOSTESS at the INAUGURAL ZENYATTA CELEBRATION
to ‘kick off’ The Breeders’ Cup Weekend Festivities.
Can you imagine this! ME, ZENYATTA, hosting a party at Breeders’ Cup!
I truly hope you can attend!
This has never been done before in RACING. (Blush, Blush!) I am able to invite my fans to come and join ME to celebrate this BIG DAY, Friday, November 4th, at the Kentucky Derby Museum adjacent to Churchill Downs. My Team will be there to join in this celebration by sharing some of our fun experiences, visiting with ALL of you, and signing autographs.
We will have a lovely buffet, my races will be playing, there will be live entertainment, we’ll have many fun products for you to see, and so much more.Breeders’ Cup will even provide the first 500 Z party-goers complimentary seating for Friday’s races. This way YOU can sit together and share in this fabulous day! I think we should call this the Z SECTION!
What is even more special…is I will be there too with ALL OF YOU…via LIVE VIDEO FEED from LANE’S END…to participate in the celebration. Tasty will be joining ME! We don’t want to miss a moment of this memorable occasion!
I simply can’t wait! I will be at Churchill Downs again…with ALL OF YOU…to enjoy great racing, MY PARTY, and share in all of the wonderful times and memories we have experienced during the last 3 plus years at Breeders’ Cup.
Breeders’ Cup has been so gracious. They have granted ME the opportunity to announce this to ALL OF YOU first before they release MY PARTY news to the public next Tuesday. They know how much I adore ALL OF YOU and SO APPRECIATE the relationships we have shared during my career!
LUCKY ME!

Hugs to ALL~ (Let’s Party!)

This is amazing news, Z! What a majestic hostess you will be! I just wish I could attend. :( Alas, I am in “your old California home.” Perhaps something wonderful will occur to allow me to attend, but for now I hope all those who make it will have the time of their lives!
Love and miss you, Z!

Oh, Zenny, that is so great! What an absolutely wonderful thing to do for racing and for all of your fans. I only wish so much that I could be there. I live in CA so it would just be a horrible expense. I will be there in spirit, and I will always always be a fan. xxoo

High Hooves on the party! Will be at BC this year, cannot wait to party with you girl! I still look at my pictures of you from last year, when we stopped at the back side of the barns where you were “holding court” , just like a true Queen. Sooooooooo excited, sooooooooo glad BC did the right thing and made you the hostess. Counting down the days till BC.

Zenyatta,
How fabulous this event will be. I was at the Breeders Cup last year and saw you, in the paddock, on the track and grazing. Too much going on this year to attend. Plan to attend 2012 BC at SA. You look Pregant…. :)
Jan
OOPS!!!! Pregnant…
@ Darlene Rutledge, Where do you live in TX??
Cathy
DeeAnn, Renee, Jeff and Cathy (your biggest Minnesota fans!) will be joining you at your BC party, Zen! Thanks for the invite! Woot woot!

What a great idea! Zen, I have to tell you a story. Last night at Bible study, we asked a question….What is one prayer that you would love to be answered? I busted out and said “just to touch Zenyatta.” LOLOL….only one person knew who I was talking about. Several looked at me and said “What’s Zenyatta?” In total disbelief I said “History folks, history!” Of course I then got to tell them ALL about you. Have a great weekend Queen Z!

Our prayers have been answered!!

Awww, you look so beautiful! You have that “glow” about you! Wow! You’ll certainly be the hostess-with-the-mostest! What a great idea and GIFT to all of us to celebrate at Breeders Cup with you and Team Z! So wish I could be there for all the excitement, but I’ll be sure to send a donation for the Breeders Cup Charities if I don’t make it to Churchill Downs! Thank you, Dottie, John, the Mosses and all the Team! You’re the best!

MAMA! You look mahvelus!!! I’m checking flights and B&Bs; not sure about Sat. BC tix, but was able to come last year for your wonderful BC Classic almost victory. SO tempting this year, yet SO expensive. You make me forget about being practical. If I’m not able to come, hope everyone packs the place for you! I’ll be watching for you on TV (hope they show you). Will no doubt be there at SA if you arrange a similar party in 2012. Love you always, Z, from your adoring acolyte in NM.
