Snitzel racked up his 20th two year-old winner of the season when the Peter and Paul Snowden trained colt Invader broke the ice at Randwick on Wednesday for a syndicate of major stud farms.
Fourth in the Listed ATC Breeders Plate on debut to Khan and then fifth in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic to Houtzen, Invader has been chasing home the good ones and appreciated a drop in grade to score over 1200 metres by a neck.
A $475,000 Magic Millions purchase for the China Horse Club from the Arrowfield stud draft, Invader runs for a syndicate that also includes Newgate Farm, Aquis Farm, Horse Ventures and US based WinStar Farm
A half-brother to star HK sprinter Not Listenin'tome, Invader is the third winner for stakes-winning Encosta de Lago mare Flame of Sydney, who was sold in 2015 fetching $605,000 at the Inglis Broodmare Sale when bought by Yu Long Investments.
A full sister to Invader will be offered at the Inglis Premier Yearling Sale asLot 482 by Noorilim Park.
