Just some footage taken by friends at the 2009 Breeders' Cup Classic in what was likely Zenyatta's final race. She will be greatly missed. Zenyatta is not only a "Horse of the Decade," but also a "Horse of the People" -- she inspired so many fans, and the connection she had with them is just indescribable. I have never witnessed such admiration (even for human entertainers and athletes) in my life! She will surely go down in the history books as one of the GREATEST horses that ever lived! I feel very lucky to have seen her and to have witnessed her races in my lifetime. I am thankful for all the memories, which I will share with all my children and great, great, grandchildren :-)

Zenyatta -- Thank you for all the memories... Happy retirement !!!

ZENYATTA FOR HORSE OF THE YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • OMG! That is my poster: ZENYATTA A TREASURE!! Thanks for getting a picture of it... I was so far back from the paddock. I had a paddock pass for the saddle barn, but I was too shy to go in!! Shame on me! Your video really captures the crowd reaction - UNBELIEVEABLE!! I cried tears of joy when she crossed the wire. Thanks for posting! I'm sharing with other ZEN fans...:-)

  • Wow! I love that poster -- very unique and it really stood out. What a day to remember!!! When she won, everyone was jumping and so many people had tears in their eyes!! I think you were there too at Hollywood Park when Zenyatta made an appearance last Nov. 30th. ;-) I'm going to miss her.

see all

  • zenyatta is the best. ruffian was the bestest. seabiscuit was great. secretariat was the greatest horse to ever live.

  • Really good footage. Before the 09' Breeder's Cup, I ranked the 01' BC Classic where Tiznow won "it for America" and the 04' Belmont where Birdstone caught Smarty Jones in deep stretch as the most powerful and emotional races I had seen in person. But Zenyatta's Classic win trumped them. It was an honor to be there.

  • Wow, fantastic video. Zenyatta is the most beautiful horse I have ever seen, bar none.Her personality and total desire to win make her the horse of a lifetime.We are truly blessed to have her in our lives.

    Praying for perfect health and continued success for her in 2010.Go baby, we love you more than we could every say:)

  • She is HUGE! What a magnificent animal!

  • Classey, I think Z raced outside of Ca once before and won very well. I respect both Z and RA.

    Z has had more time to mature and she is a monster! 17.2 hands for a mare!!

  • Nice job on the poster...I saw you with it there by the paddock! LOL! I also love the screaming at the end there...I was doing exactly the same thing! :D

  • She did, and it was her most dominant win.

  • When she walks into a place, she owns it, and doesn't her competition know it.
