Galileo’s son Gustav Klimt will stand at Heversham in the new season (Pic – Coolmore)
Superlative Stakes winner and Classic-placed Gustav Klimt will stand at Heversham Park Farm in South Africa, having stood at Haras d’Annebault most recently.
The Racing Post reports that a Coolmore-bred son of Galileo and Massarra, a Danehill sister to Kodiac and half-sibling to Invincible Spirit, Gustav Klimt originally stood at Coolmore before his transfer to France.
The grandson of the hugely influential Rafha had won two of his three starts at two, including the Superlative Stakes, while he placed in the Irish 2,000 Guineas, St James’s Palace Stakes, Prix Jean Prat and Haydock Sprint Cup at three. He had also struck in the Leopardstown 2,000 Guineas Trial on his three-year-old return.
Gustav Klimt initially retired to Coolmore for an opening fee of €7,500 and stood under that ownership until 2023, when he moved to Haras d’Annebault.
Among his best performers is American Grade 3-placed The Wild Grazer, as well as the Italian Listed-placed Sopran Blakey and five-time winner Gone.
