Description
This outstanding Group 2 winning son of WAR FRONT is ready to begin Stud Duties this Season.
The impeccably bred winner of the Curragh Minstrel S Group 2 in IRELAND was a $850,000 Us purchase by the Coolmore team at the KEENLAND Sale.
As one can imagine, having passed the Strict guidelines of the Coolmore buying team SPIRIT OF VALOR is a striking type with a flawless confirmation.
Unlike a lot of these Northern Hemisphere Sprinters SPIRIT OF VALOR proved his class on the world stage narrowly beaten running 2nd in both the :
MRC Schillaci S., Gr.2 (1100m) beaten 0.8 lengths, and the
MVRC Manikato S., Gr.1, A$1,015,000, 1200m
A minor injury curtailed his latter racing career, however he has retired a magnificent sound Stallion prospect with it all ahead of him.
Inspections encouraged and are most welcome.
*FOOTNOTE.
Breeders in the current ownership would be keen to acquire Shares and/or Breeding Rights if made available.
