A look at Indian Charlie, paternal grandsire of Nyquist
 

Hi guys, I wrote this piece about Indian Charlie. I know there are a few fans of his on here so I'm making a separate thread instead of adding this to the Preakness thread.

Thanks for that very interesting piece :)

Nice article (and a nice photo, too).

Thank you!

Indian Charlie was a gentleman and enjoyed our attention. But a neighboring stallion (The Daddy) raised a bit of a fuss as we stood there so Indian Charlie broke his mellow demeanor to strike at the air before him, as if saying "Quiet--they're here for me!"

That photo was taken a month before he died.
