The 3yo son of Declaration Of War impressed on his racecourse debut when placed 2nd in the “Junior” NH Flat Race at Carlisle on 4th November. He made most of the running in the hands of his owner / rider Pauline Condon and looked to have most of his rivals on the stretch turning into the home straight before giving best in the final furlong to the very highly regarded Alright Sunshine. What was very notable of his performance was how he rallied when headed and galloped all the way to the line, indeed his rider had a job to pull him up. A fine, big, scopey gelding with a good step he rates an exciting prospect going forward.
