He's back !
A world class son of the legendary Galileo, Circus Maximus was a Gr.1 performer on the racetrack from two to four years of age and in seventeen career starts he competed in thirteen Group One races, winning or finishing top four in ten of the events and being crowned Champion Miler as both a 3YO and 4YO.
As well, Circus Maximus is bred on the highly prepotent cross of Galileo over Danehill Dancer mares which currently runs at an incredible 24% stakes winners to runners ratio and includes nineteen Group winners – eight at the elite Gr.1 level.
A son of the dual Royal Ascot stakes winning racemare Duntle, Circus Maximus proved to be the most popular stallion in New Zealand last season, when he covered 161 mares.
