    YES!!!!!! Her Mike is taking his rightful place as the Red Prince’s team mate! Zenny must be so happy. I’ll tell you what would make her even happier: if she gives Ziconic a new sibling on Saturday, and he equals or improves on his third place finish! Now I have another reason to : Pace,pace,pace,pace…Day 21 and pace,pace,pace,pace for Ziconic! This is going to be a BIG week for the Z-Moss family, I just know it!

    I hope he wins. I love that red Tapit boy. I just know he is going to be a good racer like his Mom and Dad. The baby might be born on his birthday April 1. That would be great all 3 on the 1st. Well We will just have to wait and see. Love the Queen and all of her court. Wish you well little Z.

    I hope he wins so everyone is not disappointed,should have left Stevens on him,Mike Smith ruined Zenyatta’s chance of becoming undefeated! 28 lengths behind!Still fuming over his lousy ride!! The truth hurts so don’t be mad at me!

      It’s true that Mike wasn’t satisfied with his ride. However, it’s not his fault that she didn’t like the surface, didn’t like the dirt in her face, and didn’t like the lights. It’s not his fault that Quality Road stopped right in front of her. So maybe Mike shares some of the blame for her loss or maybe not, but it certainly isn’t his fault entirely.

    Two turns for Ziconic! He was never bred to sprint. Still might have won that race if he hadn’t taken an early tour of the grandstand. I thought Gary Stevens gave him an excellent first out but Mike Smith is a part of the family. I’ll be surprised if he is so far back this out. Looking forward to watching him. Thank you for sharing these horses with us. Hoping all goes beautifully with Zenyatta’s foaling.

    So exciting! Wouldn’t it be great if her gorgeous boy won his race and her new foal all happened on the same day?! Praying all goes well for both occasions. We love you, Zenny!!!
