The Mark Walker-trained runner was away well from barrier 10 taking up the lead, and was too strong for his rivals running out a one and a quarter length winner over Mr Spielberg in second with Mighty Kenny third.

The four-year-old gelding has been terrific since coming to Singapore winning three of his four starts, injuring himself on the other occasion.

Returning a Timeform figure of 86 when winning a class three two starts back, Elite Invincible ran to 93 on Sunday, his highest since coming to Singapore and the third highest of his career.

Showing good improvement as he goes up in trip, the son of Archarcharch (USA) could be aimed at some lofty targets later in the year such as the Singapore Derby (1800m) which is the third leg of the Singapore four-year-old challenge on July 22.

Mr Spielberg was good in second and returned a Timeform figure of 98 with the 56.5kg carried and he looks another that will continue to improve as he goes up in distance.

With wins between 1600m-2200m, The Lee Freedman-trained runner should have a good preparation ahead and is certainly worth following out of this race along with Elite Invincible.

Earlier in the dayNowyousee was able to return to the winners circe in the RDA Cup Class 3 (1100m) on the Polytrack.

The Ricardo Le Grange-trained runner has now won three of his four career starts, running second on the other occasion and led all the way on Sunday to win by a length over Wonderful Knight with Hero I Am well back in third.

Nowyousee returned a new career peak Timeform figure of 85, four pounds above his second up win in a Class 4 and certainly looks to have bigger targets in mind going forward.

Tasting defeat for the first time when runner up over the 1200m the start prior, Nowyousee certainly appeared to appreciate the drop back to the 1100m and despite all four runs coming on the Polytrack is likely to be given a chance on the grass prior to the 3YO series which starts on March 30.

On Friday night Kingsman returned to the winners circle with a one length win in a Class 3 over 1400m on the turf.

Running well for fourth the starts prior, the former New Zealand galloper returned a Timeform figure of 85, his highest since coming to Singapore.

The four-year-old gelding has been very consistent since coming to Singapore and working his way through the grades looked very well placed over the 1400m for the first time.

Ridden by Vlad Duric, the Australian jockey indicated the penny had not yet dropped for the son of Darci Brahma and he has plenty of improvement to come.
