sorry to hear that. he's made quite a mark on the sport; hate to see them go at a relatively young age.

Too bad he was really in stride as a stallion.

He was rightfully looked upon as a rock star at Airdrie, condolences to them.

So sorry to hear this. It really took me aback when I heard the news. I had no idea there was any kind of problem. Both Indian Charlie and Real Quiet gone too soon.

Genuinely bad news that I am sorry to hear--he turned out to be a very fine stallion.

IC (two-legged variant), at least you will meet him again up in heaven.

I doubt it.

Man, remember how awful he looked that day we saw him at Vinery? I really didn't think he'd make it as long as he did.

Yes sir.

But since that day he jizzed a lot of broads, so his influence will live on. Unlike ours.

Unhappy Indian Charlie -- wonderful sire
IC passed on gameness and class -- big loss to racing. Uncle Mo looks like sire, I think he will be great sire also.

I didn't know he was a wobbler or had cancer and was stunned to hear he had died at such a young age! R.I.P. Charlie!

What a loss
