Elite Invincible To Stand Tall

The Mark Walker trained Elite Invincible went down as favourite last start but can bounce to winning form when due to contest the Group 3 Committee's Price at Singapore this evening.

Only a recent addition to the Walker Stable, Elite Invincible has won three of his five starts since being transferred from the Marco Botti stable [Old Name: Qatar Man].

An impressive winner at this course and distance two back, Elite Invincible simply wasn't suited by the drop back in trip last start, but still stuck on well to finish third.

Admittedly this is a sharp step up in grade, however he appears well placed down in the weights and should get a charmed run from the inside draw.

Only lightly raced Elite Invincible has won four of his 11 starts, including four minor placings.

He raced during the Dubai Carnival last year and still has a fair bit of improvement up his sleeve based on that form.

The capacity field should ensure a solid tempo which also helps to swing the race in his favour.

When assessing Timeform weight adjusted ratings he certainly gets his chance and should prove hard to beat with Benny Woodworth aboard.

The Alvin Tan trained Infantry really caught the eye first up when working home strongly to finish a close third behind Clarton Super.

Open to sharp improvement off the back of that effort Infantry is sure to relish the extra trip.

A winner of nine of his 23 starts including a further nine minor placings, he is arguably Singapore's best horse and with Boss aboard, he looms as a major threat.

He admittedly faces a stiff task at the weights but his class should carry him a long way.

The Cliff Brown trained Elite Excalibur raced in great order last preparation and remains under strong notice in his return.

His two trials in the lead up have been rock solid and he has won three of five previous first up attempts.

Michael Rodd is a key booking and although drawn awkwardly, he shapes as one of the hardest to beat — notably went down narrowly in the Group 1 Singapore Gold Cup [2200m] when last seen.

Of the rest the Lee Freedman trained Circuit Land remains under strong notice in his Singapore debut.

Formerly trained in Hong Kong, he lost his way last preparation, but has trialled well in the lead up and rates highly on best form.

Admittedly he hasn't won in over 500 days, but is capable when right and cannot be taken lightly.

Good luck and happy punting.
