Bio
Bourbon War dazzled in his season debut on Jan. 18 at Gulfstream Park. He closed from off the pace and surged clear to a 2 ¼-length score at Gulfstream Park. Bourbon War showed promise at 2 with a debut win and a fourth-place finish in the Grade 2 Remsen Stakes, but the 107 Equibase Speed Figure he earned in his first start in 2019 showed he had taken a significant step forward.

Returning to graded stakes competition for the Grade 2, $400,000 Xpressbet Fountain of Youth Stakes on March 2, Bourbon War closed with a rush and finished second to Code of Honor with an eye-catching stretch rally. He followed with a fourth-place finish at Gulfstream in the $1 million Xpressbet Florida Derby.
Bourbon War made his next start in the May 18 Preakness Stakes, where he was sent off as the 5.60-1 second betting choice. He raced near the back of the pack through the backstretch and had no late rally, finishing eighth of 13.
Bourbon Was is by leading sire Tapit out of Grade 1 winner My Conquestadory.
