A War Front weanling filly out of 2010 Horse of the Year Zenyatta (Street Cry {Ire}) was euthanized Oct. 28 at Rood & Riddle Equine Hospital after suffering a paddock accident at Lane’s End Farm in Versailles, Ky. “We are deeply saddened to report the passing of Zenyatta’s filly, affectionately nicknamed Z Princess,” said a statement released on Zenyatta.com yesterday. “She was a member of our family and had just begun to make her mark on the world. This is a heartbreaking loss for those who knew and loved her.” Mike Kline, General Manager of Lane’s End, added, “As caretakers of these Thoroughbreds, we collectively mourn the loss of this beautiful filly. On behalf of the Farish family and the entire staff at Lane’s End Farm, our condolences go out to [owners] Jerry and Ann [Moss], Team Zenyatta and all the great fans who support Zenyatta.” Team Zenyatta asks that all messages and condolences be sent to Zenyatta.com, 300E 54th St. #27A, New York, NY 10022.
