** I DONT OWN ANYTHING ** Well, Zenyatta, she's a California Gurl, just another fun tribute to the great mare.
Zenyatta broke 3 lengths behind the first workmate. She went the first 3/8ths in :37.1 until the first workmate peeled off (around the 5/16ths pole). Green Cat jumped in at the 5/16ths pole and those two sprinted for home in 1:12.0 for Z and :35.2 for TGC. Zenyatta finished her last 3/8ths in :34.4 and galloped out 7/8ths in 1:25.1. The work was designed to have her work hard the entire way (it takes 2!)

Zenyatta (foaled April 1, 2004 in Kentucky) is a American champion Thoroughbred racehorse. She remains undefeated in her 16 starts. Zenyatta has defeated Grade I or Group 1 winners Gio Ponti, Twice Over, 2009 Belmont Stakes winner Summer Bird, Colonel John, Richard's Kid, 2009 Kentucky Derby winner Mine That Bird, Rip Van Winkle, Einstein, Ginger Punch, Hystericalady, Life Is Sweet, Tough Tiz's Sis, Romance Is Diane, Double Trouble, Sealy Hill, Cocoa Beach, Santa Teresita, Carriage Trail, and Music Note. She has won 16 races from as many starts, 14 of these being Graded stakes races including 10 Grade I events. She is one of only a few undefeated horses in American Thoroughbred racing history, which include Colin and the late "super filly" Personal Ensign. Zenyatta was sired by Street Cry, who also sired in the same crop 2007 Kentucky Derby winner Street Sense, multiple Group 1 Australian Weight for Age (WFA) champion Whobegotyou, and 2009 Melbourne Cup winner Shocking. Out of Vertigineux, the filly is half sister to multiple Grade I winner Balance. Her damsire is the outstanding stallion Kris S. She was named after the 1980 album Zenyatta Mondatta, by The Police, who were signed to A&M records by Zenyatta's owner, Jerry Moss. Zenyatta was purchased as a yearling by Jerry & Ann Moss for $60000 at the Keeneland Sales in September 2005. Trained by John Shirreffs, California-based Zenyatta did not begin racing until she was 3 years old, making a winning debut in late ...

Perhaps the Horse of the Year title is not a foregone conclusion. Zenyatta gave the crowd what they waited for — and the patrons responded by cheering, clapping, and waving — as she ran her unbeaten streak to 14 with a magnificent performance in the Breeders Cup Classic (gr. I) Nov. 7 at Santa Anita. Zenyatta looked uncomfortable for the first 200 yards and was last the first time by the stands, but she was flying down the stretch the second time and rolled by Gio Ponti to win the $5-million race. She became the first filly or mare to win the Classic. Most voters had Rachel Alexandra penciled in as Horse of the Year but Zenyattas victory over males has re-opened that argument. www.bloodhorse.com
In an effort that thoroughly delighted the crowd of 44973 that stuffed itself into Oaklawn Park on Friday, the great Zenyatta ran her perfect record to 16-0 with another flawless performance, swooping from last to first in the five-horse field to capture the Grade 1, $500000 Apple Blossom Stakes. Zenyatta ($2.10) came around all four of her rivals on the final turn, got the lead in upper stretch, and drew away without ever feeling the whip of jockey Mike Smith. Her ears went straight forward when she hit the front, and she galloped home to win by 4 1/4 lengths, a roar following her as the came to the wire. She was timed in 1:50.71 for 1 1/8 miles on the fast main track. Taptam finished second and Be Fair, the early leader, was third. www.drf.com

Zenyatta kept up her end of the bargain, weaving through traffic to capture her 15th straight victory in the Grade 1, $250000 Santa Margarita Invitational Handicap on Saturday at Santa Anita. Her race took place less than a half-hour after Rachel Alexandra was upset in her first start of the year. Both Zardana, who won the New Orleans Ladies Classic, and Zenyatta are trained by John Shirreffs. Zenyatta ($2.60) was last, per usual, in the eight-horse field before beginning her late charge. Her jockey, Mike Smith, elected to come inside because there was a wall of horses preventing him from getting out, and for a moment Zenyatta looked in trouble. But that moment passed quickly, and she flew past her rivals in the final furlong without feeling Smith's whip. www.drf.com

** I DONT OWN ANYTHING ** After conferring with owners Jerry and Ann Moss, a decision has been made to run the champion mare Zenyatta in 2010 rather than breed her, trainer John Shirreffs said Jan. 16. The undefeated Zenyatta, a finalist for Horse of the Year in 2010, had been working weekly at her Hollywood Park base since becoming the first female to win the Breeders' Cup Classic (gr. I) in electrifying style Nov. 7. She has posted three half-mile workouts at Hollywood recently. "She's just been training so well since the Breeders' Cup. You know Mr. Moss is such a great sportsmen and he really wanted to see her run again," an overjoyed Shirreffs said while confirming Zenyatta's un-retirement, first reported by Daily Racing Form. Of a possible meeting with this year's other Horse of the Year finalist, Rachel Alexandra, Shirreffs responded, "Obviously, that's something everyone would like to see." He said a plan for the 6-year-old Zenyatta, who has won all 14 of her lifetime starts and was the Eclipse Award-winning champion older mare of 2009, "has not been discussed." He said the schedule would likely be quite different than the one the strapping mare experienced during the prior two years, when she mostly stayed in California. "Like last year, we would want to take it one race a time," Shirreffs said. "But she's a lot farther along right now than she was at this time last year. A lot of options are open to us." The Mosses said Zenyatta was only keeping busy at Hollywood ...

Zenyatta is the star of the Breeders' Cup Classic 2009. She "Wows" the crowd before, during and after the race with her famous poses, running style, and dance moves!

I'm just a horse racing fan who loves to watch these beauties thunder down the track!
