Kinloch a New SW for I Am Invincible

Tara Madgwick - Saturday January 27

Karaka graduates were winning everywhere on Saturday and even at the Sunshine Coast where six year-old I Am Invincible gelding Kinloch claimed his first Black Type win in the $160,000 Listed Sunshine Coast Cup (1400m).

Trained by Kris Lees and ridden by Andrew Mallyon, Kinloch was a last start winner at Randwick at his first run back from a spell and kept up the good work when powering home with a late rush to score by the best part of a length.

“He’s always had the talent, and I’ve been on the back of him when he hasn’t been able to get out and it’s awfully frustrating,” Mallyon said.

“So it’s bloody nice to get a good win on him today and to repay the faith of the owners. This horse is starting to show what he’s always promised and he deserves this black-type win.”

Kinloch was a $300,000 Karaka Book 1 purchase.

A $300,000 Karaka Book 1 purchase for Bruce Perry Bloodstock from the Jamieson Park draft, Kinloch runs for an ownership group that includes Elsdon Park’s Lib Petagna, Waikato Stud’s Mark and Garry Chittick, Jomara Bloodstock and Jamieson Park’s James Chapman, who bred him.

He has the overall record of seven wins and six placings from 29 starts with prizemoney in excess of $840,000.

Kinloch is the best of two winners from More Beautiful, a winning sibling to Group I winner Grand Journey and stakes-winner Proliferate as well as to the dam of Group I winner Griante.

He is the 102nd stakes-winner for Yarraman Park’s champion sire I Am Invincible and is his tenth in Australia this season.
