Horse became 100th individual Group/Grade One winner for late Coolmore stallion who was euthanised in 2021
’s Content became a landmark 100th individual Group/Grade One winner for her legendary late sire Galileo by landing Thursday’s Pertemps Yorkshire Oaks at York’s Ebor festival.
The stallion that underpinned O’Brien’s unparalleled success at Ballydoyle over the last two decades was trained by the Irishman to win the Derby at both Epsom and the Curragh in 2001, as well as that year’s King George.
“She’s a typical Galileo, she’s very brave and tried hard,” said Moore who challenged wide of his rivals in the straight after Content ran keen in the early stages. “I’ve been very lucky to ride so many of them. He’s been a sensational stallion.”
