I know it has been a while! I love the pictures of Civil War's first foal - a beautiful filly! And the picture of Civil War - he is gorgeous!

Can you tell us anymore about how Civil War is doing and any of the other offspring and "Grand-offspring" of War Emblem???

Thanks so much!

It's been a while!

How are you doing, War Emblem?

Diver52 · Thu Feb 09, 2017 10:48 pm

Thanks, Tachyon--I love the bling on Robe Tissage's Orfevre foal! And All Blush seems to have had a very nice win.

You are welcome!

Hope All Blush will continue to do well!
There is a good possibility that he will become a stallion when he retires from racing.

First of all I wanted to say Happy 18th Birthday War Emblem!!!

His birthday is February 20th.

WarEmblemluvr · Tue Feb 21, 2017 1:57 am

Next I wanted to thank you Tachyon for the wonderful updates! I still keep up with this thread even if I don't have time to reply right away.

I am thrilled about the win by All Blush and winning wire to wire like his sire! And also the nice win by Astra Emblem by Black Emblem! Unfortunately I can't see either video on YouTube because it says the account was terminated. Is there any other links to watch these races?

It is also wonderful to see Robe Tissage with her beautiful colt!

You mentioned All Blush could become a stallion... That would be so great if WE could have another son at stud!

Tachyon are you aware of the Facebook page for Old Friends where they post updates and photos of the horses? https://m.facebook.com/oldfriendsequine ... =typeahead

I posted on their page in honor of War Emblem's birthday and included a four photo picture of when I and my family visited War Emblem and Old Friends for his official homecoming for people who helped bring him home! As you know it was a dream of mine to see him again! Unfortunately visitor posts are in an inconspicuous place and I don't think many saw it. Tomorrow I may try to add that post in this thread. But also in the wake of Charismatic's passing I was and am still so very sad as I know everyone is. I very much looked forward to meeting/visiting with him and had read he had a paddock next to War Emblem.

It's been a while (me posting to the forums and this thread's last update) but I'm itching for some news on War Emblem's sons, daughters, and grandfoals. What has All Blush been up to? Astra Emblem? I'd appreciate any available tidbit

All Blush is said to ship to South Korea to run in the Korea Cup next.
