This makes me happy. I'm glad they tired someone else.

Aidan O'Brien says he's the largest horse he's ever trained, he won't be seen on a racecourse until later in the year.

From the photos I've seen, he's a good-looking colt and I hope he turns out to be a good racehorse. He has a priceless pedigree, especially since we lost Street Cry far too soon, so I'm sure Coolmore has high hopes for him as a stallion prospect.
And for all the fans (like me

) who wanted to see Zen race on the grass, her brother may give us an idea how that might have turned out.

Wow, that's quite a resemblance!

Any word on whether the Queen hasbeenconfirmed in foal or not? I think we are getting close to 15 days after breeding for the ultrasound to tell

They'll probably announce at like 30-40 days.

No news from official website but they posted some new photos June 14th. She maybe looks pregnant? Her belly is pretty round but surely it would be too early to show?

yeah I have been waiting to hear too - hope we find out some good news soon.

I think she is just a very easy keeper, its way to early to be able to see anything.

I usually don't read the comments on things like this, but this one caught my eye. So young...RIP Liza.

Congratulations my Big Girl and Team Z.

Wonderful to read this on the same day that we learned of the passing of Liza J. Fly, who wrote Zenny’s theme song. Liza succumbed to leukaemia early this morning.

I wasn’t a personal friend of Liza’s but I loved her Zenny Theme song and am just so sad to learn of the death of a woman who touched so many lives.

I'm probably one of the few who really enjoyed that silly song. Very sorry to hear of her passing.

luvsgeldings · Fri Jul 08, 2016 5:58 pm

so happy to hear the good news for Zenyatta - hoping all goes well for mom and baby - lovely pic of Zen - such a kind horse - love her.

and so sorry to hear about Liza - we were at Hollywood Park when she sang the zenyatta song for everyone - she seemed a very sweet and gentle soul.

glad she's in foal to MDO.

rough year for those associated with Z, Steve Willard passing away after his bout with cancer now Liza.

Fingers crossed for a filly. No question what color the foal will be.

I loved the comments Latham had about Zenyatta too - there is something about her... beyond her charisma and talent - I remember when donna barton brothers met zen for the first time, she also said there was something extraordinary about her - something more than just her intelligence and kindness. its amazing when people who have been around so many horses express these sentiments about zenyatta. there truly is something special about her.
