War of Will Looks for Nola Sweep in La Derby SATURDAY, MARCH 23, 2019 WAR OF WILL LOOKS FOR TAKING STOCK: WAR FRONT REEMERGES AS A DIRT SIRE By Sid Fernando NOLA SWEEP IN LA DERBY Last summer at Saratoga, I sat down one afternoon in the pavilion at Fasig-Tipton with Claiborne's Walker Hancock and Bernie Sams to discuss the belated emergence of Blame (Arch), who'd stood the 2018 breeding season for only $12,500 after starting out for $35,000 in 2011. They'd stayed the course with him and were finally seeing the results they'd expected all along, and Bernie hinted then that his stud fee would rise to $30,000 this year, as it did. After Blame, the conversation wandered to War Front (Danzig), Claiborne's flagship sire, and I mentioned in passing that he was a Apremier turf horse@ and Aan exceptional sire of turf milers,@ fully expecting they'd nod in unison and agree with me. I was surprised by their immediate and forceful responses. AHe's not a turf horse. He's both,@ Sams barked, with a lot of expression. AThe first couple of crops were dirt and turf.

War Front | Claiborne The Coolmore group figured out War Front's quality early on when they raced his second-crop runner Declaration of War with breeder Joe Allen--also the owner and breeder of War Front--to successes in the G1 Queen Anne S. at Ascot and the G1 Juddmonte International at York, and they soon began buying his auction yearlings while patronizing the stallion with their Galileo and Sadler's Wells mares. Those purchases and matings have yielded impressive results for them, including such stallion prospects as G1 Dewhurst S. winner War Command; triple Group 1-winning juvenile Air Force Blue, also a Dewhurst winner; and U S Navy Flag, a three-time Group 1 winner at two and three, who also won the Dewhurst. Others raced by them or associates have landed at other farms, including Hit It A Bomb, winner of the Gl Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf at Keeneland, who is now at Spendthrift; and Lancaster Bomber, the G1 Tattersalls Gold Cup winner at The Curragh, who stands at the National Stud in England and then on to South Africa later this year.
