Questroyal North’s Galilean sires first winner

Multiple stakes winner and graded stakes-placed Galilean sired his first winner when Froutien, the co-top-priced New York-bred at the Fasig-Tipton Midlantic May sale, won a 7-furlong maiden race Saturday at Aqueduct.

Galilean, a 9-year-old son of Uncle Mo out of the El Prado mare Fresia, stands for $3,500 at Questroyal North in Stillwater.

Froutien, purchased by bloodstock agent Mahmud Mouni for $700,000 at the Timonium sale, is the second foal out of the winning Mineshaft mare It’s Timeless. Bred by Andy and the late Susan Beadnell and foaled at their Bead Land & Cattle Co. in Pottersville, Froutien is owned by Tagermeen Racing and trained by Todd Pletcher.

Froutien, a $95,000 purchase out of the 2024 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga New York-bred sale, finished third in his debut in a 6-furlong New York-bred maiden race August 15 at Saratoga Race Course. He’s one of 10 starts for Galilean, who sits atop the New York freshman sire list through Monday with progeny earnings of $161,365.

Galilean won six of 16 starts, including stakes at 2, 3 and 4, and earned $592,522.

Former New York-based stallion Son of Thunder, a full brother to former leading New York-based freshman sire Laoban, was also represented by his first winner Tuesday.

Pine Ridge Stable’s homebred 2-year-old filly Miss Moxee gave Son of Thunder that win when she took her debut by 7 ¼ lengths in a $25,000 maiden claiming race on Presque Isle Downs’ synthetic surface. Trained by Linda Rice, Miss Moxee is out of the stakes-placed Invisible Ink mare Lotto Ticket.

Son of Thunder, a son of Uncle Mo out of the stakes-placed Speightstown mare Chattertown, previously stood at Waldorf Farm in North Chatham. He stood the 2022 season, returned to the races late that year and won two of 16 starts with four placings.
