Invincible Two Year Olds

Tara Madgwick - Monday October 29
The European flat racing season is drawing to a close with the last Group I juvenile races of the year in England and France both won by colts sired by Green Desert's champion son Invincible Spirit.

Invincible SpiritThe Bob Scarborough bred Magna Grecia won the Group I Doncaster Racing Post Trophy ( read about him here) and then the Godolphin bred and owned colt Royal Meeting won the Group I Criterium International at Chantilly on Sunday.

Trained by Saeed bin Suroor, Royal Meeting was having his second start following a debut victory and scored a three-quarter length win in the seven furlong contest beating Galileo filly Hermosa, who was the favourite.

A half-brother to multiple Group II winner Heavy Metal, Royal Meeting is from Champion South African 2YO Filly Rock Opera.

19 year-old Invincible Spirit has a selection of shuttle sons now at stud in Australia and New Zealand including Shalaa (IRE), Territories (IRE), Charm Spirit (IRE), Cable Bay (IRE) and Zebedee (IRE), while his champion Australian bred son I Am Invincible has no fewer than five sons at stud headed by Group I winner Brazen Beau, whose first two year-olds race this season.

I Am Invincible has taken an early lead on the Australian 2YO Sires List with a pair of brilliant fillies leading the way in Catch Me and Espaaniyah.
