Apparently Tizway cannot be shipped directly from South Korea to Turkey, so he's being brought back to the United States and will hang out at Elmendorf Farm with Trappe Shot and Air Vice Marshal before heading out in January.
Wonder if they can be seen?!
Not in person (it is quarantine) but his new owners took a conformation photo of him last week. Along with a short video that zooms in on his... "important" parts.

Apparently there is some controversy over a photo posted by the site Liderform claiming Tizway was in poor condition and that he was being misrepresented by the new owner posting his older American conformation photo.
Bad google translation of the owner's statement:
"The old pictures of 2017, which was taken during the 106-day quarantine period after passing from America to Korea after a long journey of our stallion, were published on a horse racing site as if it was taken as a 'current and last photo'. Publication does not necessarily reflect the facts. Already careful breeders will easily understand that the published picture is out of date and that it is currently the summer season in Korea. Therefore, the photo in question, which we know for what purpose and intent, is certainly not a photograph showing the latest status of Tizway. We wanted to share the photo and video of our stallion dated 20 August 2019 with you. Before the breeding season in Turkey, in America Tizway will make season preparation under the care of the Turkish culture"
The photo of the stallion in Korea
The new photo
Liderform responded and are standing by their portrayal of the Korea photo as the most recent state of the stallion and are also claiming that this new photo is photoshopped somehow.

It seems that horse racing internet drama is not just an American phenomenon.
