Named after the famed wine region of Portugal (his sire Encosta de Lago and his dam Opaque, a range of wines), Douro Valley is by Australia's champion sire out of a talented mare who was lightly raced due to a paddock accident (broken wither). He showed ability from the start of his career but has really blossomed under the care of Danny O'Brien whose faith in Douro Valley saw him progress from a Listed class horse to a Gr.1 wfa performer.
