MGSW Invincible Army (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}–Rajeem {GB}, by Diktat [GB}), who was third in the G1 Flying Five S. at The Curragh this September, will stand at Yeomanstown Stud in 2020 after a deal was reached with owner Saeed Manana, the County Kildare stud revealed on Wednesday. His stud fee will be announced later.
A winner of the G2 Duke of York S., G3 Chipchase S., and Listed Cammidge Trophy for Manana and trainer James Tate this season, the Rabbah Bloodstock-bred 4-year-old was also a Group 3 winner in the 2017 Sirenia S. over Kempton's synthetic and in the 2018 Pavilion S. at Ascot. Also placed in a further four group contests, the 95,000gns TATOCT yearling turned 290,000gns TATAPR RNA was last seen running fourth in the Oct. 6 G1 Qatar Prix de l'Abbaye. His record stands at 19-6-5-1, and $481,260 in earnings.
“We are delighted to have the opportunity to stand Invincible Army, he is an exceptional looking colt who has shown his tough, honest and consistent attitude throughout his career,” said Gay O'Callaghan of Yeomanstown. “He is a welcome addition to our roster and [we] think breeders will be keen to support him.”
Added Tate, “Invincible Army was a horse of a lifetime to train, with his remarkable consistency and soundness. He gave us many memorable days on the track and in the winners enclosure and I look forward to training his progeny in the years to come.”
Out of the G1 Falmouth S. heroine Rajeem, Invincible Army is from the same family as GSW Dandhu (GB) (Dandy Man {Ire}) and European highweight and G1 Prix Morny victress Hoh Magic (GB) (Cadeaux Genereux {GB}).
