Last fall we held our sixth annual Zenyatta Celebration, raising over $40,000 for Retired Racehorse Project. Five participants were chosen in a random drawing to win the grand prize, An Invitation to Meet Zenyatta. Each winner was invited to travel with a guest to Lane’s End Farm to meet Zenyatta and receive a tour of the farm. These photos document their visits. Photography by Alys Emson.
View the complete set of photos from these visits in our 2018 Zenyatta Celebration Photo Gallery.

Dear Sheena:
Like the limited whip rule.

Judy & Sheena,
I like the whip rule too. I will never forget Victor using it on American Pharoah in the Derby.
As I have said before, the owners and trainers need to get their horses out of Santa Anita. Too many fatalities. I think He Who Cannot Be Named is there and it scares me for him and all the other horses, exercise riders and jocks.
Judy Berube
Dear Shirlee:
I was no longer a fan of VE after that Derby. Prayers for the safety of all the horses and riders at SA. Love and Hugs, JB

Dear Z, COZ, ZI, ZEL and DC:

Besides Zenyatta, what about Ziconic? Happy Birthday to him also. The last I heard he was at Santa Anita. Here’s hoping they’ve found something else for him to do somewhere else.
