Galileo: passed away on Saturday...Coolmore
Galileo, the sire of sires who won the 2001 Derby during a glorious Classic campaign and hailed by Aidan O'Brien as a "thoroughbred we will never see the like of again", has died at the age of 23.
Among the 12-time champion sire's offspring, who have produced 91 Group 1 wins between them, is the mighty Frankel and John Magnier said Galileo leaves behind him a legacy of unprecedented success.
