A homebred daughter of Valiant Hero trained by Randy Haffner for Bill B. Price of Thackerville, Oklahoma, BP Valiant Policy has won two of five starts and has banked $32,396, and his resume includes a second-place finish, 2 3/4 lengths behind winner Woop Dee Doo, in the 300-yard, $82,000 Heartland Futurity on the Fourth of July.
