KINGSTON, Jamaica – Patiently ridden by apprentice by Raddesh Roman, American Invader got going in the final two furlongs of the 5-straight contest to post her third career victory.
Trained by Wayne DaCosta, American Invader, who seems to be improving rapidly at this stage of her career, won by five lengths at odds of 1-5.
Another foreigner Alhamdulillah (Kiaman McGregor 8-1) came from way behind the leading pack to grab second with Western Wheels (Paul Francis 41-1) racing from the prohibitive one draw occupying the third slot.
American Invader won in a fast time of 58.1 seconds to give Roman his 24th winner for the year.
