Cheveley Park Strikes Deal For Intello

Top-class colt Intello will stand at Cheveley Park Stud in Newmarket for the next two years before returning to France.

Hugely impressive in the French Derby before finishing third behind brilliant filly Moonlight Cloud in the Prix Jacques le Marois at Deauville, the Galileo colt occupied the same position behind Treve in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.

Connections swiftly announced the three-year-old, owned by the Wertheimer brothers and trained by Andre Fabre, had run his last race and would be prepared for his stud career with Cheveley Park. He will stand for STG25,000. ($A42,066)

After standing at Cheveley Park in 2014-15, Intello will move to the Head family's Haras du Quesnay stud for the following two years.

"We are delighted to be standing such a talented racehorse as Intello, who compliments and expands the portfolio of outstanding stallions currently standing at Cheveley Park Stud," Cheveley Park managing director Chris Richardson told www.thoroughbreddailynews.com.

"An arrangement between three world-class breeding operations brings together the opportunity for European breeders to benefit from this new and very exciting initiative."
