Invincible Army was a real flag-bearer for James Tate during a most productive juvenile campaign which took in the July Stakes (fourth), the Molecomb Stakes (second), the Gimcrack Stakes (second), the Sirenia Stakes (winner) and the Mill Reef Stakes (second). He should handle the underfoot conditions and run his usual solid race on his seasonal return. However, he faces a similar hardy and ground versatile rival in the shape of SOUND AND SILENCE. Both Charlie Appleby and Godolphin have enjoyed a flying start to the new turf season, and this Breeders Cup Juvenile Turf runner up looks fully capable of adding to an ever growing tally of winners.
