Happy Friday!
There isn’t any baby news to report, but we’re having a great time with Zenyatta this week. The weather has been beautiful in Kentucky, and she’s as relaxed as ever.
Here are a few photos from the past two days on the farm. We’ll have some new photos of 12Z tomorrow—and of course we’ll post as soon as there’s big news!
Enjoy!

sorry to ask this here. Loved watching Zen race just didn’t know about this site till the other day. Are the products from the Zenyatta shop no longer available? I saw no way to purchase them. Thank you so much. Anxiously awaiting news of the upcoming foal!

Keta. Thank you. Great information as always. What an extraordinary horse that he was. That Belmont win is still incredible. Happy Birthday, Big Red. Never forgotten.

Heartfelt gratitude for the generous spirit of the Mosses….. Beginning with Zenyatta’s history making wins, the public saw her heart pounding effort on the track and she became a legend. Her owners have shared the private moments in between with a cloud of fans that just keeps growing. We’re all on the edge of our seats as Z approaches this finish line. The roar of the crowd rises from around the world to cheer her on to victory. Go darling girl…….with so much love, you are the best!

Good Morning to all at lanes end and to the Mosses, thanks for the photo’s of Zee, she is looking so beautiful. we will continue to pray and trust in the almighty that all will be well with the delivery. This would be a great day for Zee to foal…….but we will wait upon the Lord!!
Blessings,
Anne
Thanks for sharing the new photos of Zenyatta. She looks great and happy to see her family. I am so impressed with the love and devotion Jerry and Ann Moss have continued to give their girl. They haven’t stopped showing her the love they showed while she was racing even though the distance is much greater to see her.
I wake up during the night and check to see if any baby has arrived. She might wait until her own birthday… April 1st… Hopefully no April Fools joke from her…:>)
Elaine
Thank you so much! Zenyatta, you are in my prayers for a safe and healthy delivery!

Took a curry and a body brush to my two short-haired Vizslas yesterday and my female Jesse was wiggling all over the place. She loves to be brushed and I always loved grooming time with my horses. Such a great time to bond and find the good spots to scratch.

Thank you Lanes End Farm and Jerry and Ann Moss for the wonderful pictures and for keeping her fans posted on the delivery of her foal. I am so glad that she is being taken care of so well. She looks so happy and beautiful and I pray for a safe and healthy delivery. Looking forward the the birth of 13Z.

So happy to see pictures of a healthy and happy “Z” this morning! You know they say a watched pot never boils. So we will continue our pacing for “Z” as she enjoys her day! Her “Filly” will get here when she’s ready. Thank you for the lovely pictures of our favorite Queen Z. They make my day. We Love You “Z” !!!!! :)

dear max Karen Thompson hovis human mother writes his diary she has a wicked sense of humour!! he often talks of his real mum seems she would jump over the hedge for any horse not fussy!!!gorgeous pics of Zenyatta and ann and jerry too lots of racing on over here today heard that JT McNamara is paralysed due to his fall at Cheltenham very sad hugs sheena
Max
Sheena. Thanks for the clarification that Hovis’ mom is indeed a woman. I thought so, but I was not completely certain. Karen does have a great sense of humor. The diary is very good, and I would have missed it but for you. One has to know quite a bit about British racing, horses and current news to get the full effect, such as her allusion to lasagna.
Let us know about the weekend racing, while we all pace together.
I am very sorry to hear this news about JT. Is there any hope for a recovery?
CL
Max,
The mother Hovis speaks of is a horse,
A woman writes the diary !!!!
Nancy A Stamp
Dear Sheena, So loved the Hovis Diary. What a hoot.Glad to know Mum is a human and the writer. Very forgiving woman. Just had to be counted with the watchers and show my gratitude to the Mosses so willing to share Z with all these crazy people. So many have responded who like me mostly read and don’t always write. I share all your emotions – and thanks again for sharing Z with all who love her. Pray for great success to come soon.

Good morning to all my beautiful Z nation family. I hope all is well with everyone and that you all get to rest up this weekend since I think the Queen wants her little Princess to have the same Bday as her.
Before I go on, I want to send out healing Prayers for all those who are hurting especially JT McNamara, Scotie and all those that need healing including Sir the horse. We have an Awesome God and I am claiming his perfect Healing for them.
Wishing Royal D and her jockey a safe trip in the Dubai Cup race and may she fly on the wings of Angels and bring home the gold. Win or not, we are so proud of her and just want her back safely.
Thanks to the Moss’s, Lanesend staffer’s that take such good care of our Queen and also Alys who takes such great pic’s of not just the Queen but of the Prince too.
Wishing everyone an Awesomely Blessed weekend. It is well.

Thanks so much for the updates and beautiful photos. Waiting anxiously for news of a new foal and very much appreciate being able to depend on this site for the correct news. Also love the comments and information from all of you who post frequently. You are a very special group of people who have come together because of an extraordinarily wonderful mare! I don’t post often, but check frequently. Good luck to all and especially Zenny.

When I say my gratitudes I am including Zenyatta and all of the gracious Team Z. Though I don’t comment often, Zenyatta continues to enrich my life and her circle of Jerry, Ann, Lane’s End, and those who were a part of her racing life have become not only a part of my life, but legends to the legions who love Zenyatta and are ever drawn to her circle. All of us hope and pray for a safe and healthy delivery of her gift of Z13. As for Z12, well he’s a treasure and not at all in the shadows of our hearts.
