This is a nice article about Galileo. “At home with the world’s number one stallion”. I enjoyed the pictures too.

It was so nice they took the time to do the interview and have the article written. It is always fun to hear about what some of these famous stallions are like.
I see his 2017 fee is listed as “private”. From what I read it was around 350k euro in 2014. Would the private fee mean it is adjustable depending on the mare? I’m curious if it is likely to be significantly more or less than what it was in 2014.
I got to see Churchill run at Longines Champions’ Weekend at Punchestown (The Curragh). What an incredible horse! His gallop was absolutely effortless as he drew away to the wire. I’ve followed all the Sadler’s progeny since I was lucky enough to acquire a Sadler’s granddaughter and they, as a group, are noteworthy.
62 G1 winners from 12 crops is just unreal.
Thanks LaurieB, nice article.
