Zellda (Medaglia d'Oro x Zenyatta)

Especially_Horses

I realize I'm going out on a limb here, But the name Zellda has gone from REJECTED to Pending Approval. I don't think the name claim would be reopened if an Approval wasn't in the works. If I'm wrong I'll have the Administrator delete this Discussion Thread. LOL.

So maybe they reviewed the original reason why they rejected it (what was the original reason again?) Or maybe they appealed the rejection?

On Line Interactive Registration shows Zellda assigned to a 2017 Thoroughbred.

And some... enterprising... person has it on pedigreequery.

They must have appealed. Hoping she finally gets her name! And I do like the Zellda name

Especially_Horses

It's officially Approved!



Third time is a charm:

Lioness

Yay, love it! So happy we finally get to call her something!

QueenZFan22

It's now official on equibase as well! http://www.equibase.com/profiles/Results.cfm?type=Horse&refno=10285772&registry=T

Nice to see her name pop up on my Virtual Stable.

So Zeny's last two "living" babies are back to back in my Virtual Stable. When you see Zi, age 6, and Zellda, age 2, it really hits home about the bad luck in-between those two.

Hope they formally introduce her with a nice new recent picture of her.

Especially_Horses

Agree!

I've called her "Z's Filly" for so long, it's going to take me awhile to call her Zellda!
Wonder what her barn name will be --- maybe "Zelly" ??

Lioness

Zellda is pretty short. Do they need a barn name? Haha but Z or Zell maybe.

I love it! I also like seeing the other choices that weren't approved. Gezille and Izabella. They were putting thought into it. I am hoping they release something like they do when Coz and Zi were named. I would love an update on how Zellda's training is going. I wish nothing but the best for Zenyatta and all three of her babies. Hopefully this year she will find a great match and this time next year we will all be pacing waiting news of a new little one.

Guess there won't be an official blog post announcing her name.

She needs to grow some more.

Zellda seems to not approve of being behind her running partner And she sure didn't like the dip in the path too much hehe. Nice to see her learning and she seems very quick to adjust to things.

Other way around. She didn’t appreciate being goosed to keep up.

There is an announcement of her new name on the blog with some clips.

I would have never thought Zenyatta would have such a small filly, and Ziconic is small too. Zenyatta is such a huge mare, so why is this happening?

whoodler

My 5 adult kids range from 5' 4" to 6' 4". Those two both male
My lone daughter is 5' 7 and her other two brothers are 1 and 3 inches taller. A variety of body types and coloring.
The genes fall where they may.

Size of the stallion matters as well Medaglia D’Oro is 16’2

Especially_Horses

She's far from finished growing. She's not even two for another four months. I think she is going to be sleeker in body type than Ziconic.

On the Blog it is noted: The Mayberrys report that she is feisty and loves to be out front.
