Invincible again after long lapse

KUALA LUMPUR:  May 2, 2021

 

After three unplaced runs in Malaysia at the tailend of last year, ELITE INVINCIBLE began the 2021 season with an upset win in the Supreme A over 1200m at Sungei Besi here today, just as WATCH THE THRONE'S unbeaten run came to an end.

WATCH THE THRONE, who began his career as a late four-year-old, has been unbeaten in six starts and started odds-on in the set-weight contest.

ELITE INVINCIBLE, a winner in six starts in England and the UAE, scored six times in 20 starts in Singapore. His last success came in November 2018.

After a disappointing 2019 during which he was unplaced in eight starts, the Irish gelding was sent over to Johnny Lim in Kuala Lumpur.

ELITE INVINCIBLE did show a glimpse of his old dash in the final two runs last year. A four-month break did the trick as he came from midfield to beat the pacemaker DISTINCTIVE DARCI. WATCH THE THRONE managed third.
