Happy Sunday!
Team Z arrived at Lane’s End yesterday to await the arrival of Zenyatta’s third foal. At the farm, horses and people alike are enjoying perfect spring weather, green grass and sunshine. These photos offer a glimpse of how we spent our weekend.
Fans can look forward to a blog post announcing major news. In the meantime, check our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (or look here on the right side of the blog) to keep up to date with our visit.
Enjoy!

Thank you TEAM Z!
It’s so incredibly great to know that Zenny is in her family circle as she awaits her foal. It makes me feel that she and her baby are safe in the arms of love. Once we 2-legged girls had a circle of family with us when our babies came into the world, before doctors were even a profession. That’s what the arrival of Jerry & Ann before Zenny foals makes me think about for some reason.
The photos are magnificent and I really loved seeing Zenny with her BFF, Life Is Sweet, going into the barn together. Looks like they’ll be together with their little ones again, just as they were last year. That must be the best feeling imaginable for “les girls.”
And The Redhead (Z13) is just magnificent — so glad to see he’s as bonded to Ann and Jerry as Coz.
Goodnight, Big Girl, from a rainy and cold Montreal. (When I saw Charles in his shorts I almost went as green as the grass with envy! ) And sweet dreams to all my Tribester family. Exciting times as we await (lucky) #3!!!!
And I do love the possibility that the foal will come along on the night of pink moon and an eclipse. Amazing how each of Zenny’s babies have had their very own birth stories. No reason to think that this baby won’t be blessed by her/his own birth magic too.
Love & hugs to all and kisses to Zenny and her boys, as well as our tiny hope-to-be.

I’m hoping for a little girl that looks just like her mama! The boys are amazing but it’s time for a filly! :) love you Z!!
Christine in Florida
I don’t care whether it’s a colt or filly! It’s Queen Z’s after all ! Hoping that the foaling goes well for Zenyatta and her foal and that both remain healthy. Good luck Team Z!!
Stephanie
I’m glad to see that 13Z hasn’t greyed out. I wondered if he would, being by a grey sire.
As for Zenyatta, I hope she has a filly this time!!
Barbara Grimaldi
May your third foal be healthy and happy and as beautiful as you and your first two. May the birth be easy, safe, and may momma and baby come through like the stars they are. Impossible not to stop loving Zenyatta…her portrait is my screen saver, so her wisdom is with me every day.

Thank you Ann and Jerry for sharing Zenyatta with us. In these times when there seems to be so much heartache on TV news….it is wonderful to see the pictures of you and Z….it is heartwarming. It gives a sweet and nice feeling to see the love you all have for Z and her foals….and for the love Z has for you all. It is exciting waiting for a new baby. Give Z hugs from us fans. Ann …it is wonderful to see your kind heart.

Mary, I could not have stated my feelings any better. I completely agree with you. The Mosses, Team Z and all associated with her are so kind to include all of us in this exciting moment. Zenyatta is a special horse and you are all special people. Thank you. Hopefully next time I check, there will be a picture of Zenyatta and 14Z!!!
Rita
12 & 13 Z. are so beautiful can’t wait to see the next one.Just hoping for a filly!

Z, how I would love to give that belly of yours a scratch! bet that feels SOOO good.
Good night Z… rest well!
Rebecca
Love the Baby Bump pictures! Take care of our Zenyatta (as I know you will). My family and I are sending good, positive vibes for a healthy mother and foal.
Deana from Texas
I loved the great pictures of Z13, he has such a great presence and air of confidence about him like his brother Coz. I have a suggestion for Z13 ‘s name-as if you haven’t had enough already. It incorporates Dad’s name, Z’s name, and her love of the dance.
Deana from Texas
I forgot to mention the name: TapdanZen-best of Dad and Mom and incorporates her love of the dance!

Thank you Ann and Jerry for sharing Zenyatta’s third birth with us and all the before hand details because it means so much to be a part of Zenyatta’s life in all that happens with her. I pray that Zenny and Life is sweet do well with their births and have very beautiful and healthy Foals. I am so glad this moment finally came but I am also a bit nervous and anxious. I will be happy when I hear that both Mom’s and Babies are doing very well. Zenyatta is a big strong Girl but she looks quite tired after that long, hard Winter that they are just getting over. God Bless All of you and I will be praying and waiting for this Blessed event to take place. Will be waiting for more information as you get it. Love to all and Thanks again.
Darlene Daniels

Thank You so much to everyone . Ann, Jerry, Lane’s End. We appreciate so much being a part of this wonderful time.
Zenyatta your so much in my prayers for a safe and sound delivery. Tell Life is Sweet praying for her too.
Oh my, its so exciting. Zenny remember its a full moon on the l5th.
Ann, Jerry oh my how do you leave for a few minutes to eat etc. I’ld be a nervous wreck scared I would miss something. Might better have some sandwiches and soda there at all times so you want have to leave. Oh, and have cake there too. There are a lot of Cake lovers here on this blog. Can you tell. Know there are a lot of nice places to eat in Lexington, but you guys don’t go far.
Love you all. God bless & take care of you Zenyatta.

Zenyatta one more thing, Ahh, I’m thinking about one more thing. A White Cake with white butter creme frosting and Pink flowers on top. Oh, I’ve got a filly on my mind.
OK, now a Red Velvet cake for a Colt.
Ok I’m just celebrating. Love you all so much.
Prayers, Prayers, Prayers for all safe deliveries .
Love, Peggy Sweet Dreams, I’ll be checking back often. And I have to go to work tomorrow. Oh my I better get to sleep.
Karen
Dear Sweet Zenyatta get your much needed rest. Do not worry soon you will have your little beautiful baby. God is watching over you & your little one along with your family and friends.
Donna H
I feel so much better now that you all are there to love on Zenny as she waits. She just adores Ann and know the feeling is mutual. Isn’t 13Z as pretty as can be and sweet, too! My computer service keeps telling me you have visiting this sight many times. They just don’t know we’re expecting a baby any minute. Love to all.

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted, but I couldn’t resist adding to the comments about these lovely photos. We had the pleasure of meeting Team Z in 2013 and continue to admire their dedication and love for Zenyatta and respect for her fans. We are patiently waiting for more baby news! :-)
Allie in Texas
Zenyatta, wishing you an easy delivery and a healthy foal. Wonder if you will deliver during the lunar eclipse. That would definitely be a good omen. Soft kisses to your nose. Love ya.
zfansandy
Prayers sent for Z and all the deliveries at Lanes End. Angels are surrounding them.
This is what happens every time I miss a few hours without checking in…something big is posted and I wasn’t the first to see it. Grrrr.
What nice pics, Kyle. Thx teamZ/Lanes End. It is thrilling to be updated. Ann and Jerry you both look just great like excited parents and I’m comforted to know you’re there.
Zenny looks as though she knows why you’re there.
Hey Z, give us another colt, pretty please??
For easy and safe delivery let us pray to the Lord.
