MATING SUGGESTIONS: This son of sire of sires Invincible Spirit won the Gr.1 Vertem Futurity Trophy at 2 and then was a decisive winner of the sire-making Gr.1 2,000 Guineas at 3. He now merits even more respect, following the classic victories of his younger half-brother St Mark’s Basilica. Much of Invincible Spirit’s success has been with mares descending from MR PROSPECTOR , and this is a route worth exploring with Magna Grecia. Invincible Spirit has Gr.1 winners out of mares by Mr Prospector’s sons KINGMAMBO , MACHIAVELLIAN (2), GULCH and SEEKING THE GOLD , and his Champion son Kingman is out of a grand-daughter of MR PROSPECTOR , by ZAMINDAR . He also has two Group winners out of mares by LEMON DROP KID . Invincible Spirit sired the classic-winning Lawman from a mare by GULCH and Kingman sired the top-class Palace Pier from a grand-daughter of GULCH , by NAYEF . Invincible Spirit has 13% stakes winners out of MACHIAVELLIAN mares. He also has 16% stakes winners with mares by Machiavellian’s son STREET CRY . This makes daughters of LOPE DE VEGA , with his 3x3 inbreeding to MACHIAVELLIAN , an attractive option for Magna Grecia. DUBAWI is the broodmare sire of Invincible Spirit’s Gr.1-winning daughter Nazeef.

Invincible Spirit has 12% SWs with daughters of PIVOTAL . Another son of Invincible Spirit sired a classic winner from a PIVOTAL mare.
