€11m flop: Most expensive horse retired to stud

AT €11 MILLION he was the world’s most expensive horse.

But after just three runs and barely €7,000 in prize money The Green Monkey has been put out to stud.

The horse was bought as a two-year-old by Coolmore, the stud farm owned by John Magnier, Michael Tabour and Derrick Smith in February 2006 at an auction in Miami.
