On a visit to Coolmore stud in 2008 I was privileged to meet the greatest sire of modern times- Sadlers Wells age 27. I met him again this year. He is fantastic, a real gent! I hope he has a few more years yet so I can see him again.

  • Mate he is 20 year old now

  • @sahidmiah. He died in April age 30! He was a lovely. I saw Mtoto the year before he died too, and he looked a bit ribby. These old fellas all seem to go like that eventually.

  • I might be getting one of his ofspring nicknamed wish :D won races retired age 14.

  • It's really sad we lost this great sire of sire's. But few could argue that Sadler's Wells had an extremely long life. There's no doubt in my mind that he's one of the most influential turf sires in the history of the sport. Just for the Coolmore breeding shed alone, Sadler's Wells has sired Montjeu, High Chaparral, and the great Galileo. Who's become arguably the most successful sire in the breeding industry now himself. The legacy of these 3 great horses alone makes him 1 of the best ever, IMO

  • bless he looks skinny :P u can see his ribs :(

  • When I was 8 years old I wanted to be Sadlers Wells when I grew up. RIP.

  • R.I.P. Sadlers Wells. One of the all time great sires.

  • RIP Saddlers Wells. The greatest stallion in the history of flat or NH racing,even better than the great Northern Dancer. Thanks for the memories big fella.

  • RIP Sadlers wells. 30 yrs old and will be missed.
