ABOUT
LEGENDS OF WAR - ONE NOMINATION FOR THE 2024 BREEDING SEASON
Standing at: March Hare Stud (GB)
Legends of War, a Grade 3-winning son of Scat Daddy, won four of 16 starts during his on-track career for earnings of $491,240. He began his racing career in Europe, winning on debut as a juvenile by four lengths. He was soon moved up to group stakes competition, and he finished the season as a Group 2 placed runner for trainer John Gosden, having finished second in the Group 2 Gimcrack Stakes.
The colt was moved to the U.S. at three and placed in the barn of trainer Doug O'Neill. He quickly picked up placings in the Listed William Walker Stakes and black type Desert Code Stakes, but he earned his biggest career victory in the fall, when he won the G3 Franklin-Simpson Stakes at Kentucky Downs. That effort led to a start in last year's Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint at Santa Anita Park, where he finished a wide-running 12th.
Legends of War raced twice this year as a 4-year-old, ending his career in Saudi Arabia with a start on the Saudi Cup undercard.
Bred in Kentucky by DP Racing, Legends of War is out of the unplaced Rahy mare Madera Dancer.
He brought $200,000 as a yearling at the 2017 Fasig-Tipton Turf Showcase, then he was pinhooked for 900,000 guineas (US$1,350,405) at the following year's Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Sale.
His oldest crop are now yearlings and he has covered some exciting books of mares.
