About

Declared is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia trained by David Jolly & Justin Potter. He is by Churchill out of Light Express. To date, Declared has recorded five victories. On 3 May 2025 at Morphettville, he claimed his biggest triumph, winning the $105,000 3yo+ Benchmark 76 Handicap. The horse has been a solid money‑maker for bettors, delivering roughly a 40% ROI for anyone who backed him throughout his career.
