Declaration Of War all set for the Group 3 Diamond Stakes
As his name suggests, Declaration Of War, right now has all that it takes for claiming the €37,375 prize money of the Group 3 Diamond Stakes. The mile, two furlong and 150 yard race will be held at Dundalk race course on Friday, 5th October. His
11 to 4 chances of being the first one through the wire will get constrained by twelve other three-year-old and above contestants.
The most endangering entry in the line-up for the Aidan O’Brien trained is the 5 to 1 shot for the race, Black Spirit. The five-year-old bay gelding has won a Group 3 event through his last outing.
The Clive Cox conditioned won the Group 3 Dubai Duty Free Arc Trial on 22nd September, 2012 at Newbury race course over a mile and three furlongs. Paired up with jockey, Adam Kirby, for the race, the duo defeated Lay Time by an almost negligible
head’s margin.
Black Minnaloushe’s bay gelding will become the mount for rider, C O’Donoghue, and the team has drawn the twelfth gate to break from.
His arch rival in the race today is War Front’s bay colt, Declaration Of War, who has successfully crushed the competition in three out of the four races that he was a part of.
He cleared the maiden on the first asking of the career on 10th November, 2011.
The American bay colt then won the Prix Habitat (Conditions) (2YO Colts & Geldings) on 16th December, 2011 at Deauville over 7 ½ furlongs. Guided through the track by the genius of his profession jockey, Christophe Soumillon, the favourite entry
defeated, Joropo, by eight lengths.
His entrance in the 2012 campaign was marked by a fourth position in the Group 3 Refuse To Bend Solonaway Stakes on 9th September, 2012 at Curragh race course over a mile.
The race was won by the favourite entry, Famous Name.
The bay colt out of, Tempo West, did not take long to swing back into form and win the Moyglare Stud Lifetime Achievement In Racing Trophy on 30th September, 2012 at Curragh over a mile and two furlongs.
He will race with the stable jockey, Joseph O’Brien, and the two will race from the first stall.
