∙ 14y agodon't think there are any we have discovered. that galaxy is very far away and so far stars are the only things we can measure outside our galaxy. extra-galactic planets are much more difficult than extra solar planets because another galaxy is crazy far away and another star inside our galaxy is more close for telescopes to find. for instance hubble space telescope and numerous others can only determine exoplanets (extra solar planets) within 100 light years because of technological limits.
I believe M81, the sombrero galaxy is more than a few million light years away

Stars
How far is earth from sombrero galaxy?
Far
Do the sombrero have gravity?
I assume you mean the sombrero galaxy. It is a galaxy, hence it has mass, hence it has gravity. If you mean a "sombrero" as in hat, it also has mass and therefore gravity. The gravity, in each case, can be calculated via the gravitational formula.
