Treasure Beach an Irish Derby winner by Galileo

TREASURE BEACH (GB) - 2008 bay/brown horse

Irish Derby hero Treasure Beach is a son of the great Galileo (by Sadler's Wells), whose stallion sons include Teofilo and New Approach, and he stands at Pleasant Acres Stallions in Florida. He covered 101 mares in his first season, 103 in his second and it seems likely that his best results will come with turf horses

He is a half-brother to Listed Oaks Trial winner Honor Bound (by Authorized) and to Listed Derby Trial second Elidor (by Cape Cross), and his dam, Honorine (by Mark Of Esteem), is a triple winning half-sister to Group 2 Hardwicke Stakes scorer Indian Creek (by Indian Ridge).

That horse also won the Group 3 Gordon Stakes and Group 3 Earl of Sefton Stakes and the races in which he was placed featured the Group 1 Prince of Wales's Stakes and two editions of the Group 1 Champion Stakes.

Blue Water (by Bering), the grandam of Treasure Beach, won a listed contest in France and was third in the Group 3 Prix de Flore. Her siblings include a pattern-placed multiple French winner and her grandam, Radiance (by Blakeney), won the Group 3 Prix Corrida.
