Gelding might be the making of this talented youngster by I Am Invincible, who became the 18th juvenile winner for his sire this season when racing to a dominant win at Newcastle on Tuesday.

Enforcement as a yearlingA $360,000 Inglis Easter purchase from the Yarraman Park draft for China Horse Club / Newgate Farm / WinStar Farm, Enforcement disappointed when well fancied in his first two starts in metropolitan company firstly in December last year and then again in March.

Gelded after those moderate efforts, Enforcement showed his true colours when leading all the way in the 900 metre open maiden to win by more than three lengths.

It would have been a tough decision to geld Enforcement, given he comes with big pedigree!

He is the first winner for stakes-winning Snitzel mare Express Power, a half-sister to the dam of stakes-winners Winner’s Way, That’s a Good Idea and Kneeling as well as the dam of Group I winner Ace High. Further back it’s the family of legendary sire Danehill.
