Happy Wednesday!
We’d like to extend a huge thank you to all 2020 Zenyatta Celebration participants. We will be sending Celebration Stickers to nearly every state (and Canada), and the funds raised for Hope for Horses grow every day.
There is still plenty of time to get involved! Through Saturday, November 14, purchase a 2020 Celebration Sticker to be automatically entered into our grand prize drawing for an invitation to meet Zenyatta.
We are also announcing a new daily giveaway each morning. The results of the first five giveaways have been posted here.
Visit the 2020 Zenyatta Celebration website for details.

Thanks Team Z.
Love my Z hat and have had the pleasure to explain what the Z stands for. Even better when wearing the shirt!
JB, thanks for sharing about the White Horse award. Left me crying and in awe of her bravery. Loved her grandpa too.
Love to all.

So happy to read that it has been a successful fundraiser for Hope for Horses!
Zenyatta you are an inspiration to so many of us.
I always play the Liza Fly song when I go for my 6 months checkups as a breast cancer survivor. I play and replay your song . It gives me courage and inspiration. I’ll watch your races too. You have helped so many people over the years in so many ways.
I’m so glad I met you and saw you race. It was such a privilege. And the number of wonderful friends made because you were the common denominator.
Stay healthy and enjoy this special celebration . It’s all about YOU!

Happy Friday everyone,
Can’t believe the BC has come and gone AND that so many of the stars have been retired!! I was so happy that Valiance was taken out of the sale (now I can’t remember if it was the Keeneland sale or the FT sale but it doesn’t matter) and will be running again next year! Also Monomy Girl and By My Standards. Wondering who will be left to challenge Tiz in the Pegasus??
Our boy Hovey seems to be soldiering on and providing comfort to other equines dealing the stress of too much attention during the human strangles epidemic. He says a “surprise” is coming . . . . hmmmmm?

Very worrisome that the pandemic seems to be getting worse and worse. Human health behavior was a research interest of mine – especially barriers to carrying out recommended health actions (i.e., wear a mask, stop these gatherings, etc). At the time, I don’t think anyone had studied what to do about the “barrier” of “it infringes on my rights!” There has to be a way to get through to these people before the health care system is totally overwhelmed.

Dear Sandy,
Thanks so much for the “helpful hints from Hovis”. ❤️
Good to hear that he is occupying himself so nicely! Sending more positive thoughts and prayers for healing to our hero and his family. Stay strong and get well Hovey. 🙏 💕
Yes, Sandy, the human response to the pandemic is indeed worrisome. I must agree with Hovis about the human intellect these days –” . . . being rivaled only by garden tools.” I think that might be generous! 😷
Hugs and Love

Dear Sandy and Marshall:
Sandy, thanks for our Friday Hovis update. Looking forward to Hovis’ surprise.
Agree with both of you on Covid situation. Love and Hugs, JB

Dear Sandy,
I was happy to see where Valiance wasn’t in the sale and will be racing next year, too! That was good news. ❤️

Press conference with former connections of Monomoy Girl. She was purchased by Spendthrift Farm in the November 2020 Keeneland Sale for 9.5M.

Dear Judy,
Big Congrats to Joel Rosario! He is a favorite of mine, too.
RIP Winning Impression. Beautiful grey gelding, 3 year old son of Paynter, who took a bad step Thursday at CD (while finishing 3rd) resulting in a sesamoid injury too serious to repair. Run with the Angels, sweet boy.
😢
Hugs and Love

I wish we could have a restocking of the purple Zenyatta hat. I live with somebody (Victoria) who wore hers until it just about disintegrated. If I could replace it she might give up on her Pittsburgh Penguins and Green Bay Packers hats!!

Dear Brenda,
