Galileo - Colic

Postby Galileo1998 » Fri Sep 19, 2008 4:23 am

I just heard that Galileo underwent colic surgery last night. Fingers crossed that he recovers well and quickly. I was a huge fan of his as a racehorse and am enjoying seeing his offspring succeed as well.

Any news yet about Galileo? There is nothing in the Racing Post.

There have been a couple of short articles in both Bloodhorse and Thoroughbred Times, both of which said he was recovering nicely and was expected back at the farm soon.
