Invincible Knight Picture: Racing and Sports

ZEROING IN

We go about finding a weekend special from a statistical angle.

Randwick Race 6 - 2 Invincible Knight

Talented galloper from the John Thompson stable who is simply flying this time in, having finished fourth in the Civic Stakes two back, before only narrowly beaten last start.

Comes into this off a career peak performance and will have no concerns with the prospect of a heavy track (1/1).

Invincible Knight is a noted performer over the mile and has placed in three of five attempts at Randwick.

He is unbeaten in his sole attempt racing fifth up and while likely to need a bit of luck in running, he will be charging at them late - clearly the one to beat.

Key Trends

The John Thompson stable is flying at present striking at 20% from his last 50 runners.

Josh Parr links aboard for the first time and overall is striking at 15% when paired with the Thompson stable — also striking at 16% from his L50 rides.

Invincible Knight has won 3/7 over this distance range and has placed in four of his last eight starts.
