I think it's an easy, inexpensive way for fans to keep up with their favorite horses. Visitation days are great, but not everyone can afford to travel out to visit a farm, especially one that's across the country from them. And definitely takes less effort from a horse's connections than having to answer a lot of emails individually.

Though I just popped over to FB to see the page and it mainly seems to be a vehicle to drive traffic to the Zenyatta website.
