Galata was a neighbourhood opposite Constantinople (today's Istanbul, Turkey), located at the northern shore of the Golden Horn, the inlet which separates it from the historic peninsula of old Constantinople. The Golden Horn is crossed by several bridges, most notably the Galata Bridge. The medieval citadel of Galata was a colony of the Republic of Genoa between 1273 and 1453. The famous Galata Tower was built by the Genoese in 1348 at the northernmost and highest point of the citadel. At present, Galata is a quarter within the borough of Beyoğlu in Istanbul, and is known as Karaköy.
There are several theories concerning the origin of the name Galata. According to the Italians, the name comes from calata (meaning "downward slope"), as the neighbourhood is sloped and goes downwards to the sea from a hilltop. The Greeks believe that the name comes either from galatas (meaning "milkman"), as the area was used by shepherds in the early medieval period, or from the word Galatai (meaning "Gauls"), as the Celtic tribe of Gauls were thought to have camped here during the Hellenistic period before settling into Galatia in central Anatolia. The inhabitants of Galatia are famous for the Epistle to the Galatians and the Dying Galatian statue.
Galata (1829–1848) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare who won two British Classic Races in 1831 and the Ascot Gold Cup a year later. In a racing career which lasted from April 1832 until June 1834 the filly ran ten times and won seven races. As a three-year-old in 1832 she won her first four races including the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket Racecourse and the Oaks Stakes at Epsom Downs Racecourse. In the following year she was unbeaten in two races, winning the Port Stakes at Newmarket and the Gold Cup at Ascot. She was retired to stud after two unsuccessful starts in 1834.
Background
Galata was a lightly built brown mare with a white star and white socks on her hind legs bred by her owner Brownlow Cecil, 2nd Marquess of Exeter. She was sired by Sultan a descendant of the Byerley Turk who was British champion sire for six successive season from 1832 to 1837. Apart from Galata he sired seven other classic winners including the Epsom Derby winner Bay Middleton. Galata's dam Advance was a successful racehorse who also produced Mahmoud, a colt who finished third in the 1830 Epsom Derby.

There's a game life plays makes you think you're everything they ever said you were Like to take some time Clear away everything I planned Was it life I betrayed for the shape that I'm in It's not hard to fail it's not easy to win did I drink too much could I disappear and there's nothing that's left but wasted years There's nothing left but wasted years If I could change my life Be a simple kind of man try to do the best I can if I could see the signs I'd derail every path I could now I'm about to die won't you clear away from me give me strength to fly away
