Zenyatta Delivers a Candy Ride Filly

Zenyatta and her Candy Ride filly. Alys Emson

VERSAILLES, KY — (May 17, 2020) Zenyatta gave birth to a chestnut filly by Candy Ride this morning at Lane’s End Farm. The foal, Zenyatta’s sixth, arrived at 5:40 a.m. ET, weighing 148 lbs. She has one hind sock and a star.

Zenyatta and her filly are both in excellent health following an easy delivery. It brings us such joy to see them bonding in their paddock on this beautiful day.

We would like to express a sincere thank you to Zenyatta’s veterinary team and staff at Lane’s End for their dedication to the wellbeing of Zenyatta and her new foal.

    Bonjour Zenyatta,

    Was hoping to see some new photos and videos of you and your baby girl.

    No such luck!

    Thank you!

    Finally! They both look great! The filly is looking like she is going to be a Liver Chestnut. Now that she has lost her baby coat and has a sleek summer coat, you can get a better idea of what her true coat color will be.

    And Zenyatta is all dapples, the picture of health>

    Happy Friday everyone!
    Hovey didn’t get into too much trouble this week, but he was forced to be out in somewhat unfavorable conditions, it’s Mini Mum’s Birthday, and he shares some insights re the equine brain ?
    Hot, hot, hot here along the north coast, and it sounds like we could be in for an even longer stretch next week?. Planning to get groceries is almost as bad as in the winter. Hope everyone is staying cool and safe.

    Sandy,
    As always, thanks for our Friday laugh with Hovis.

    Judy, thanks for posting the pic of the little princess although she didn’t look too royal sleeping with her mouth open and her tongue out!

    Lots of good racing yesterday especially with the mares. Good to see Monomy Girl back to her old self. She sure is a good looking girl.

    Take care and stay safe all you Zsters.

    Aunt Judy posted on Zellda FB page this AM that she ran 4/40.48. She was 11/47.(ranked 13/57)

    Over this past weekend Z-Z had a spa treatment after his first schooling show. I believe this treatment was of Chiropractic in nature. Lindal

    Congratulations to Civil Union, a 5yr. old mare by War Front out of Photograph(Unbridle’s Song) on winning yesterday’s River Memories Stakes (BT) at Belmont. She looked great in this 1 1/2 mile race and put the favorite away. Great ride by José Ortiz, and a nice win for trainer Shug McGaughey. Congrats to all connections!

    Check out the replay on Bloodhorse — nice race — sorry I don’t have the link handy here.

    Cheers and Well Done!

    Marshall,
    Saw the race on TV. She is a nice looking big girl. Congrats to her and all her team. I am always so happy to see Shug win. He always puts the horse first.

      Shirlee,

      Yes, me too. I like Shug, and I was impressed with CU — she is definitely a nice looking big girl! She handled the 1 1/2 mile on turf very well indeed.

      Cheers and Hugs

        BTW, here is the replay link for the River Memories Stakes race on Sunday:

        https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/race/usa/bel/2020/7/12/8/river-memories-s-bt

        Beau Belle with Manuel Franco aboard did quite well, too. They led most of the race and held on for 3rd.
        I liked the way Civil Union found another surge to pull away from Olympic Gardens as if to say, “Oh no you don’t; you aren’t getting by me today!”

        José beat Irad in this race! Those Ortiz brothers are really something.

        Cheers!!

          Oops!, Sorry about that Olympic Games (not Gardens)!

    Popping in to say hi to everyone. Huge Happy Birthday to Ann. Thank You so much for everything you do. Love you and all Z Family.
    Judy, Thank You again for the beautiful picture of sleeping Baby Z. And, Thank You to all for the wonderful links and videos. A Treasure Trove for sure

    Everyone please stay safe. Oh, with all the badness going on Look up to the Dark Night sky tonight . Hope not too many clouds. We should be able to see Jupiter at its closest approach to earth until 2021. Also should be able to see Pluto also for the last time for decades. But may need a telescope to see Pluto.
    If I am remembering my science from school. Jupiter is beaten in brightness only by Venus. Well, on this side of the moon. We should be able to see them both. Feels like just a little glimpse of heaven.

    Zenyatta, Baby Z all family love you all. Stay safe. My horses all use to go crazy with any thing a little different In the sky going on. Full moon etc etc.. ?

    To all my friends here Love You All. Stay safe

      Dear Peggy,

      How great to see a post from you!! Hope you are doing well during these crazy times.
      Thanks for the Jupiter & Pluto alert! I will try to remember to go out for a look. I like stargazing, but living in town, it isn’t as easy as when I was growing up in rural North Carolina. Lots more light pollution now-a-days.

      Thanks again! ?
