You are right, we will never see all her abilities. Look at how much ground she made up in the 2010 classic and passed some of the world's best horses and missed it by 4 inches, she just needed another stride!

Thanks for nice comment! I totally agree with you about Zenyatta bringing me so much joy! Team Zenyatta has so much to do with it, to allow ordinary people like me get so close to her. I'm so glad I'm able to share my memories with anyone!!!

This veterianarian enjoyed talking about Zenyatta and I think she hit the nail on the head by saying we never saw all her abilities.I look forward to seeing her foal ! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much for this behind the scenes look at Queen Z, she to me is the most wonderful horse ever, I don't think we will see anything like her again, except in her children. She gave to me and so many people so much happiness, God Bless her and her owners, and caretakers. You gave us complete joy, Michele
