Very sad. We will never know what she could've done.
Re: Zenyatta's filly euthanized
Like they say 'only the good die young' . A great loss.
Re: Zenyatta's filly euthanized
Does anyone know what happened?
Re: Zenyatta's filly euthanized
Nutmeg - 'what happened' is stated in the first sentence of the Bloodhorse article at first provided link: 'paddock accident'.
Re: Zenyatta's filly euthanized
It is always So Very Sad for the connections. My non-horsy husband used to freak out at me when we lost a foal, in the invincible belief that this Never Happened To Other People and I must be just incompetent. Now when he hears something like that he says "It can happen to anyone."
So Run for the Roses, as fast as you can.....

The pasture buddy "Princess Z" collided with didn't make it either. So sad.
"A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher...You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God: or else a madman or something worse." C. S. Lewis

Re: Zenyatta's filly euthanized
BloodHorse produced two recent special features, one was a video, and the other was a "longform" article. The video notes the passing of the filly foal. It was my understanding that at the time the video was being developed, it was anticipated that it, or parts of it, would be shown during the 2014 Breeders Cup. Because of the sad note of the passing of Z Princess, those plans were shelved for a wider broadcast of the video.
