Dark Trooper
(IRE)About
Dark Trooper, a 5-year-old turf runner from Ireland, is conditioned by A De Mieulle, known for the deft training at France. Conceived by the notable stallion Dark Angel, the progeny of Warshah, Dark Trooper has successfully clinched victory in 10 of its competitions to date. With a groundbreaking triumph on August 12, 2023, at Ascot, it claimed an unprecedented accolade by securing first place in the $45,246 Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup Sprint (handicap). This horse has indeed been a lucrative prospect for bettors over time. Investing in Dark Trooper throughout its career would have yielded a 50% return on investment.
