Was Awesome Slew involved in the Hendricks family murders? :lol:
This is what I get for trying to post from my iPad. I went back and changed it.

I sent the link to the reddit thread to a friend who was interested and I guess when I thought I had copied the Awesome Slew link, I hadn't, and the reddit link was still there. Common trend with this device.

Talismanic to join the Darley roster in Japan
G1 Breeders’ Cup hero Talismanic to stand in Hokkaido in 2019

Harry Sweeney, President of Darley Japan, said “We are really excited to have Medaglia d’Oro’s best turf son, Talismanic, in Japan. He has a wonderful pedigree, his exceptional sire has sent out numerous winners in a variety of races and his family has produced many big-name horses. He is extremely attractive with a gorgeous body, and we are looking forward to introducing him to our clients in Japan”.

His stud fee will be announced at a later date.

Aaaaand Talismanic is off to Japan.

I don't care what anyone says, but this is me patting myself on the back for being 50% right.

I think there's an opening for a son of Medaglia D'oro in Japan, he could be pretty popular.

Talismanic is from the same awesome family (Highclere) as Deep Impact, so that doesn’t hurt.

Talismanic's 4th dam Burghclere is 3rd dam of Deep Impact and Black Tide (both by Sunday Silence). His dam Magic Mission is full sister to dam of the dual Japanese GⅢ winner Logi Cry (by Heart's Cry).

When I toured Ashford last summer, he was the only stallion they let us pet. He is very friendly, a real ham.

Brutal turn of events for G1W I Want Revenge, who has died in Indiana following an illness. Stallion was a 10K purchase by Jeff Jeans (who reported his death in this post) at #KeeNov, and was to stand at Indiana Stallion Station in 2019.

That's nice to hear. I never realized his coat was so dark; he's almost black.

Sorry to hear about I Want Revenge. He reminds me of the hard-luck Dollar Bill.

i don't see any brown in his face, could he be one of those "he's black but it wasn't worth the hassle to prove it to the JC" horses?

Jockey Club probably said he was brown because he had one brown hair in his tail or something.

I've also heard that if a horse has a white star or like one white sock they'll register it as bay or dark bay, because "white means not black" or whatever. Not sure though.

Why is the JC like this?
