i just wonder what the deal is. libido issue? or maybe a physical issue--i wonder if he's having pain somewhere when he tries to cover, so he won't try any more.

i know other horses have had issues at first, but his have dragged on for years now. slew was a timid breeder at first.

i think war emblem would be worth working with, if you can find the root cause....

Prince Ahmed bin Salman bought War Emblem from the Reinman (sp?)
anyway... He died via a CIA induced heart attack at 40 something I think


War Emblem may just need different stimuli
or maybe he just likes to get to know her first

This is the horse responsible for getting me hooked on this sport. I do hope things turn out well for him.

Initially, he would cover some mares and totally reject others, without rhyme or reason; no pattern could be detected in which he would mate with and which he would reject - not color, not markings, not experience (maiden mares vs veterans). He just liked some mares and didn't like others. That's why he has some foals on the ground.

Did they try sending the ones he liked the first time back to him? You can't make a career out of that because no mare owner would want 10 War Emblem foals from the same mare but it could buy you another season. If he rejects one he liked before then I dunno.

Not sure he should go straight to Old Friends. The supreme irony would be if Coolmore's division got him, being as they like to shoot for 200 foals it seems like. I guess whoever it is has to be big enough to afford him and handle His Royal Nastiness but small enough to devote the time and energy. Hmm..
