A $1million Inglis Easter purchase for TFI/ Kia Ora from the Torryburn Stud draft, the I Am Invincible colt from Group III winning mare The Pinnacle had one unplaced start for Kacy Fogden before heading south to join the Price -Kent team and had four starts for them in maiden events and placed in all of them without winning.
