MATING SUGGESTIONS: Gustav Klimt was probably the fastest members of the Galileo-Danehill cross which has produced numerous Gr.1 sires such as Frankel and Teofilo. Having won the Gr.2 Superlative Stakes as a 2YO he made a winning reappeance in the 2,000 Guineas Trial S. before finishing a half-length second in the St James’s Palace S. and third in the Irish 2,000 Guineas and Haydock Sprint Cup. Gustav Klimt’s dam Massarra is a Group-placed full-sister to Kodiac and a half-sister to Invincible Spirit, both Champion 2YO sires. Massarra has also produced a Gr.1-winning 2YO. An extra line of DANZIG is proving no problem for Galileo’s other stallion sons out of Danehill mares, including Teofilo, Frankel and Intello. Daughters of OASIS DREAM have five Group winners by them, while GREEN DESERT mares have three and CAPE CROSS and INVINCIBLE SPIRIT have one each. Teofilo’s son Havana Gold has a dam by DESERT STYLE , whereas Intello’s Gr.1 winner Intellogent has a dam by KHELEYF (another KHELEYF mare produced Gr.1 winner Tiggy Wiggy to Kodiac). Galileo sired Classic winners from GREEN DESERT and CAPE CROSS mares. Other sons of DANZIG which have succeeded with Teofilo are SHAADI , ZIETEN and ANABAA . Teofilo sired Irish classic winners out of daughters of GRAND LODGE and his son SINNDAR . The DANEHILL branch is cropping up with these stallions, they have SWs inbred 3x3 to DANEHILL out of mares by DANEHILL DANCER , REDOUTE’S CHOICE , CLODOVIL , ROCK OF GIBRALTAR , DESERT KING and DANSILI . Kodiac’s Gr.1 winner Campanelle is inbred 2x4 to Danehill, the second line coming through DANEHILL DANCER . An ACCLAMATION mare produced Teofilo’s fast son Massaat. Kodiac has Gr.2 winners with dams by ROYAL APPLAUSE and ACCLAMATION . Invincible Spirit has a Gr.1 winner with an ACCLAMATION dam. Frankel has Gr.1 and Gr.3 winners out of mares by AHONOORA’s sons INCHINOR and INDIAN RIDGE . Indian Ridge’s son NAMID is the broodmare sire of Kodiac’s dual Gr.1 winner Campanelle. The MR PROSPECTOR line merits serious consideration. Frankel has 5 SWs from KINGMAMBO mares and Gr.1 winner Without Parole from a LEMON DROP KID mare. Teofilo’s three SWs with KINGMAMBO dams include a Gr.1 winner and he has Group winners out of mares by DUBAI DESTINATION . Kodiac has two Gr.1 winners with dams by KINGMAMBO . MACHIAVELLIAN line mares have a Gr.1 winner by Teofilo and a Gr.2 winner by Frankel. Daughters of DUBAWI have been represented by several good winners by Teofilo, as well as two Gr.1 winners by Frankel, including Adayar. WHIPPER and RAVEN’S PASS sired the dams of juvenile Gr.2 winners by Kodiac. Inbreeding to SADLER’S WELLS is an option with Galileo’s stallion sons. Stallions bred on the Galileo-Danehill cross have sired winners of the Oaks and the Dewhurst Stakes from daughters of MONTJEU . Frankel also had two Group winners with second dams by SADLER’S WELLS , including the high-class Eminent. The NUREYEV line is also thriving with these Galileo-Danehill cross stallions. Frankel is excelling with PIVOTAL mares, with four Gr.1 winners. Kodiac and Invincible Spirit both have Gr.1-winning sprinters with dams by PIVOTAL . Mares from the STORM CAT line have established a terrific partnership with Galileo. Teofilo, Frankel and Intello all have Group winners out of GIANT’S CAUSEWAY mares. Two sons of Galileo have Gr.2 winners out of mares by SHAMARDAL . Kodiac has three Group winners with dams by SHAMARDAL , including Gr.1 winner Hello Youmzain. Kodiac also has a 2YO Gr.3 winner out of a LOPE DE VEGA mare. Frankel and Intello have Group winners out of SELKIRK mares, including Gr.1-winning 2YO Inspiral. The Sadler’s Wells male line has always thrived with SHIRLEY HEIGHTS line mares. Teofilo has excelled with MARK OF ESTEEM mares. Frankel has Group winners from mares by DARSHAAN , DALAKHANI and DAYLAMI . The BLUSHING GROOM line has a lot to offer. Teofilo has Gr.1 winners with dams by RAINBOW QUEST and MT LIVERMORE , plus Gr.2 winners with dams by QUEST TO FAME and GROOM DANCER . RAHY mares have produced Gr.1 and Gr.2 winners to Frankel and a Gr.2 winner to Teofilo. 43
